    Dilution ratio matrix

    RippyD's dilution table

    People have posted the CG one here previously, and it's excellent. I wanted something that covered more measures and ratios. I also added a table for commonly used products. My goal was to be able to mix whatever I want quickly without having to go to a PC to look up ratio or think about conversions.

    Sharing this as a Google sheet so anybody can customize, add, or remove items. This prints as a one-pager. Couple of additional comments:


    • I have less than a 1/4 cup or gallon grayed out. It's just noise to me - below those amounts I'm using a different measure
    • To add a new dilution ratio just add a row, put the ratio in the far left column, and cut/paste the others cells from another row


    Feedback is welcome, but keep in mind that you easily edit for your own usage. For me the 5 gal and mL are unnecessary and I'll likely remove them.

    Re: Dilution ratio matrix

    That calculator is good. I usually don't want to go to a PC when I'm gloved up and working. If I need something while I'm in the garage, I prefer to have a chart on the wall I can review. Most important for me is the ratios for all the various product uses. But... having a tablet that lives in the garage is maybe not a bad way to go...

    I use it on my phone which is on me at all times.. I created its own tab so it's available with 1 touch from my home screen.

    Nice chart! I'll be sure to print and past on the product cabinet door. I have a good one on there now... but this is very granular.

    Re: Dilution ratio matrix

    Excellent chart, i'd love to contribute can I get access or at least give you some product info i have handy? It'd be great if people could add on the fly, i think people here are all good enough to contribute in a proper manner.

    AWESOME job!
    Back to the full-time grind.
