Reduction & Mix Ratio Calculator

Reduction is the first number in every settings window we publish, because viscosity sets how the material atomises before pressure or distance get a say. Enter the ratio off the data sheet and the volume you want in the cup, and this returns the exact pour for each component — plus what that ratio works out at as a reduction percentage.

Mix ratio (parts by volume)

Read the ratio straight off the technical data sheet — 4:1:1, 2:1, 8:1:1. Leave a box at 0 if that component is not in the mix.

Mix what the session needs. Catalysed material has a pot life and does not keep.
