I've known my dad dilute 20:1 lol

As PVA is the same by any manufacturer ( ? ) , just different dilutions , £/ltd should be related to thickness so can you please weight an exact litre to determine cost related gloopyness

We'll omit regional variations of gravity on this occasion

That sounds like a feeble excuse for poor attitude to furthering TPF knowledge and it stinks , so repent and do the test and give us the £/lgloopynes value

Yeah but you can probably get 40 litre mixed up out the good stuff . I usually mix the wickes stuff 50/50 so only getting 10 litres

Usually £19.99, so good saving for anyone who uses a lot.

Full bottle of pva ..

Half a bottle of SBR..

As the SBR is thinner than pva doesn't take too much water, I just quarter fill the empty pva bottle good shake , that's enough. Seems to go long way
