It is important to weigh and mix A1 very carefully, based on the following mixing ratio: 1 part A1 Liquid to 2 parts A1 Powder. Fill a mixing cup or bucket with the amount of A1 Liquid required. Use the stainless-steel High Shear Mixer to create a swirl and then add the A1 Powder. Stir the mix until smooth and lump-free and then stir for another 30 seconds. Make sure that the material on the bottom and sides of the cup or bucket is mixed in properly too.
