Mixing Ratios Explained at

[@bena2293]

Dam Andy X you just Explained the paint cup so well and it was over 8 years ago thank you if you are still Alive Lol;

[@couch405]

I second that!!

[@blursithflow9442]

See I watched a Eastwood video and didn’t understand where they were getting their starting number, but this video made it clear it’s based off the amount you want in the cup and so it’s the number that you pick. Thanks very much

[@bethyounker555]

This was so simple, thank you for helping me finally get those silly markings. I was so excited when I got it that I showed it to my husband right away, and was able to easily explain it to him.

[@Stormmaniac]

This is by far the best ratio video out there I been searching for information on this for 2 weeks and finally found this.. thank you sir!! Best help there is..

[@CrimeDoesNotPay]

The year is 2023 and this video just helped out a millennial mix epoxy - God bless you sir

[@mariogonzales814]

The first video I have found were you explain it 100% understandable and very easy to learn how to mix thank you very much. Some of us have dyslexia and we need to do hands-on lol thank you.

[@andiortega4164]

Sir, this is 11 years later but I’m going to tell you thank you I hope you get this message because I have been struggling with this cause I’m not a mathematician. I’m not even slightly smart at math. Thank you.

[@daniellee3643]

Thank you brother I went through video after video and didn't get any of the information that you just gave. You just made my paint project so much easier!! Thank you sir

[@scottgorman7166]

[@vqant343]

[@leonardomayor120]

I'm from Manila, Phillipines. For me, reading and understanding mixing ratio was very complicated. but after watching your video it became very clear. simple and direct to the point. you did a good job. keep it up sir. thank you so much.

[@dustinw5527]

Thank you for taking time out of your day to explain this. Direct and to the point. no hee hawing around.

[@teamfrenkenstein4143]

Thank you so much for making this so simple to understand, work on all my own stuff, but I was afraid to paint till I watch you’re video , and so I painted my motorcycle, and it cam out awesome, thank you so much you are very much appreciate it.

[@rockymountainhandyman840]

You explained it just great. i was confused as all get out at first but now I understand the mixing cup. Thanks

[@constantinbulucea8881]

Could not have been more complicated!! Thanks for the clarification of the rules: (1) match numbers, (2) first pour the paint.

[@username8171]

Wow was this very explanatory ! I been painting a little off and on for years, and yet never knew how the paint mix cup worked. YAA for youtube. This explained it very well.

[@tonyrome068]

Great vid and explanation. Everyone likes to hear themselves talk! Thank you

[@abibodlogistics]

Thank you, I really like your explanation. I have never for once thought in this direction before, I was just sitting down this night and thought about what to do being the type of person that I am, always searching for new things and mixing paint just came to my mind and for the very first time I was able to get something tangible from you. Thanks once again and I will always get in touch if there is or there other things that I will like to know.

[@govsux1]

I was staring at that damn cup couldn't not wrap my head around what was going on thanks now I get it!!!!

[@pzodman500]

Thank You Sir for your contribution here. Out of all these tutorials, yours is plain and clear. I will stick with yours.

[@JohnRushing-zd3ql]

Explained very well. I am now confident in mixing my paint. Thank you Subscribed!

[@raymondholley8646]

I've been painting a long time and I know the the ratios and how to do it but your video was very clear other ones that I've seen have not been so good job on that one

[@windsunh2o]

Thank you! I understand how these cups work now. I like your tip about finding the mark at how much material you want to end up with and using that number to start with.

[@AndyX]

thanks bro .. glad to help

[@righteous1229]

Thanks you for explaining the paint mixing cup!! Keep up the good work!!!

[@angelcorella177]

I will say this is the best video on here

[@davidregister7405]

What a simple explanation for people that don’t understand thank you

[@colbyclauss6783]

Hi Andy, Came across your explanation of mixing cup ratios and appreciate your video. Sounds silly not to know how to read a mixing cup like this, but have always scaled out my sealer parts by weight- a 3 to 1 ratio required because... I never really understood the cups! So as little of a deal as you may think- you taught me today how to read the cups! So Thank You! Have a good day fella!

[@AndyX]

+Colby Clauss thank you Colby

[@johnaponte415]

Jeez you made this so easy for me. I was over complicating it 🤦🏽‍♂️. Thanks👍🏽

[@samuelescobar777]

Finally someone who explains in detail. And what goes first and last. Very well explained. Thanks 😁👍

[@jtech23]

Great video, This is the first time someone explained paint ratios that actually make sense!!

[@hawkfan1212]

After numerous videos and websites listening to eggheads trying to explain, this guy makes it simple and clear! Thank you!!! (And "subscribed.).

[@loumont1]

best explanation of paint ratio on KZbin, period.

[@jm1551701]

I want to thank you, that was a nice simple to understand explanation, I already knew the easy 1 to 1 ratio, but I am getting ready to spray a ceramic undercoating on the bottom of my car and it calls for a 4 to 1 ratio, and I have some PPG measuring cups but I did not understand the measuring numbers, but your instruction is very clear and I now understand, sometimes my dyslexia kicks in and I get thrown off on the measuring I was going to ask my neighbor who knows these things but I was a little embarrassed thanks again, It's to bad not every mix is a 1 to 1 ratio, like they say, "But knowing is half the battle' thanks again. now I don't have to go to Eastwoods site, they probably just would have confused me anyway.

[@SwiftGeneration]

Hey Andy, I'm getting a job as a paint tech (side-step from Machinist background, thanks economy) and I saw a bunch of these cups in the paint lab where I'm set to be working. Thanks for the leg up so I'm not the FNG!

[@0ptimal]

Good stuff. Simple procedure but can be confusing for the inexperienced. Well explained.

[@hectorortega9131]

at Last!!, Somebody that can Explain this shit clearly.

[@AndyX]

thanks Hector

[@andrewilson6645]

He really went into good details

[@WigWagWorkshop]

Great video, thanks for taking the time to explain this topic of mixing ratios. Your tutorials are always east to understand, and to the point.

[@hellena1963]

[@balerialima2439]

[@Ejam-mf6pq]

[@imacgst27]

Very detailed and great video. Thank you

[@larsdahl6594]

I've always felt like a dummy when trying to figure out these ratio mixing cups Clearly I'm not a pro and I failed math in highschool. I still feel like a dummy, but one who finally understands it. Almost certain I do ;-) Thanks!

[@constantinbulucea8881]

Lars, You should not feel bad! I have a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and still was not able to figure out the markings on the container without reading the instructions on the Internet! Thanks for your appreciation.

[@s.porter8646]

wow...painting a boat, looking to get this as simple as possible, watched the section with the 1:1, 2:1 etc, thanx for helping!!!!

[@MartyMarble]

Very Clear, Good Job ! beter than Eastwoods video on mixing, thank's

[@revcope6914]

Man this was the best explanation yet made it simple 👍🏻💯

[@rickgrice4614]

Thank you for sharing and explaining. You made that very easy to understand. I definitely appreciate your help and time!

[@filibertobarrera3839]

Yeah I'm a painter on a budget cause of my penny pinching customers,I use sandwich bags.I put it into the cup with a rubber band on top and reuse the measuring cup like a hundred times before I get a new one.

[@firingallcylinders2949]

That's boss actually

[@busman5429]

It been a long time since i painted needed to brush up on this, great job explaining the process.

[@Marzyxx]

Thanks so clear now got so confused with another video thanks heaps. Happy painting 👍🏽

[@sledgehammer7998]

This is 100% clear, now I know how to use these dang cups. Thank you Sir.

[@chris01479]

Very well explained, easy to understand as I know what to do to mix it. You should always use the same number when you fill up no matter what the mixing ratio is, but all of them must come with same number to get good mix. For example, your primer is 4:1, look at 4:1 on the cups. Fill up the primer to 2, then fill up the hardener to 2 to make it 4:1. Same with clear coats but the mixing ratio is different 👍

[@adanarceo4636]

I watch Eastwood video about this and I my beard grew up before they were to this point, thanks bro. 👍

[@davedella7169]

[@dominiccerasoli330]

might sound like a dumb question and something your just supposed to know but i wasnt sure! And god damn its nice to get a straight freakin answer!!!! thank you brother

[@AndyX]

your welcome

[@Rob-mk3lq]

Thank you for a very understandable video. One thing though: Just where can one get a Matrix System Mixing pot or similar? I have searched but all I can find is 50 Pieces of one pot or another that is completely different than the pot that you use! Understanding Mixing Ratios really does depend on using the Pot you use. Looking at the other Pots on-line they look completely different and therefor are a complete mystery to me!!! Please could you advise me where I can get an Identical one that you use from, hopefully in the UK, but I could always purchase from the USA if possible! Thank you all, Rob in the Berkeley Vale, Gloucestershire, in the West of England.

[@ClintonSnow]
