    Urgent help please (dilutions)




    how do i properly dilute these into 16 oz spray bottles?

    its just 1:3

    /

    1:5 correct?

    dillutions translate into 1 part product 3 part water correct? so I'd simply fill a quarter of a 16 oz with product then add water and shake?

    I would try 2-3oz product to 12-13oz diluted water and see how you like it. I've used the Diablo Wheel Gel before and IIRC I used it at 10:1ish dilution ratio.

    there are 128 oz. in a gallon .....128/16= 8 I mostly use 32oz. bottles that are marked off. Did you try to search on the forum? I think i saw one that explained it for 32 oz. maybe even 16 oz. and you can try to different dillutions of the same product like I do with my apc 10:1 and 4:1 you can try this Enviro-One Dilution Calculator I saw it on another thread

    Think of it in parts. 1:3 = 4 parts. 16 / 4 = 4

    Container - 16 ounces

    • 1:3 ratio = 4oz Diablo + 12oz water
    • 1:5 ratio = 2.5oz Diablo + 13.5oz water


    For wheel cleaner just use tap water.
