These presets cover the core spray bottle and bucket dilutions pro detailers use daily—from strong 1:4 APC cuts to gentle 1:256 rinseless washes.

Each calculator opens the MixByParts modal preloaded with the container size you picked. Switch to weight mode for concentrates with known densities, or resize the total volume for bulk batching.

Popular use cases

  • Prepping a 1:10 APC quart for interiors
  • Scaling a 1:32 wheel cleaner to a full gallon jug
  • Mixing a rinseless wash at 1:256 in metric spray bottles

Spin up a detailing batch

Open the mixer with a 1:10 APC preset in a 32 oz spray bottle. Adjust the ratio, resize the bottle, or flip to weight mode before you fill.

Defaults: 32 oz total, 1 part product to 10 parts water.

FAQs

Can I change the bottle size?

Yes. Use the Total volume field inside the mixer to resize the batch while keeping the same ratio. Every preset is just a starting point for common bottles and buckets.

How do I get friendlier units for tiny amounts?

Pick your preferred unit in the Results card inside the mixer. Switch to mL for drops or to ounces for larger batches—everything updates instantly.

Do these work for foaming sprayers?

Yes. The math is the same whether you are filling a trigger bottle or a pump foamer. Just match the total volume to your equipment and keep the ratio consistent.
