What is a dilution ratio for car detailing?

Dilution ratios for car detailing can be confusing at times. You’ll normally see a ratio on a bottle, that might be 1:4 or 1:10. This means that for every 1 part of the product you add to a spray bottle, you would add 4 or 10 parts water.

What is dilution ratio?

The dilution ratio is the ratio of the solute (the substance to be diluted) to the solvent (e.g., water). The diluted liquid needs to be thoroughly mixed to achieve true dilution.

How do you dilute a product based on the amount of water?

You can dilute a product based on the amount of water you want to use. Simply measure out the product and then tip it into the water. You will need to work out the correct dilution ratio for this. How do you work out a dilution ratio? Dilution ratios will either be as a percentage (10%), a ratio (10:1) or PIR Panel Impact Ratio (10%).

How do you make a 5:1 dilution ratio for a gallon?

To make a 5:1dilution ratio for a gallon, we add the ratio numbers together like this: 5+1=6. Then we take 128oz and divide that by 6 and we get 21.3333333. So put 21.3oz of chemical in the container and fill the rest with water totaling 128oz to make a gallon of solution at a 5:1 dilution. Lets do a dilution ratio of 20:1.
