🌊 Acrylic Pour Ratio
Medium to paint ratio for acrylic pour painting
About this calculator
The Acrylic Pour Ratio calculator dials in the paint-to-medium mix for fluid art. Enter your total pour volume and desired consistency; it splits the batch into paint, pouring medium, and water percentages based on common working ratios like 1 part paint to 2 to 3 parts medium. Getting the ratio right controls cell formation and drying behavior.
Tip: test every new pigment at a small scale first — metallics and heavy-body paints behave wildly differently at the same ratio, and a full failed pour wastes expensive medium.
