Hey guys, I have been doing a lot of reading on this valuable site but am a little confused on that the proper ratio of mixes to make a sealer.
Any insight is appreciated.

I generally mix my brand of epoxy 1:1:1 which is a 50% reduction rate. This can be adjusted down to give a bit more build. If you think about it in terms of ounces it is 5:5:5 or 50% so 5:5:2.5 would be 25% etc.

If you are planning to reduce your 2k build primer then you need to refer to the manufacturer's recommendations. These products differ greatly by brand.

Thanks 68! That's just what I needed. I usually try to use the 2K so I will check out the Tech sheet to confirm.
