<p>Thanks again Steve for the reply (and especially for the advice).</p>

<p>One suggestion for mixing small amounts is stainless steel measuring spoons and cups. My paint supplier sold me a set with the paint. I have never used the spoons, but have used the small cups ever time so far. My paint cans have the ratios on the label ie. 4-1-1 or 8-1-2, etc. I just use the same cup and count. If it were any more difficult, I probably would mess it up.</p>

Indeed they do, the issue was trying to transfer small amounts from a big gallon container. That's where I got the bright idea for the syringe. I finally just punctured a small hole in the top of the can which worked. and Ive got success now! Cowl is finished and I'm very happy with the results.

Go to any store that sells auto paint supplies- they have graduated containers in various ratios( 3 to 1, 4 to 1) for paint mixing in various quantities from a cup on up to half a gallon.
