Per the T-88 technical data sheet the ratio is equal parts by volume or 100 parts resin (Part A) to 83 parts hardner (Part B) by weight. I keep 100 and 83 written on my bottles with a Sharpie so I can find the ratio when I need it. I always mix by weight.
The data sheet is pretty good and can be downloaded on the Ssytem Three Web site at http://www.systemthree.com/index_2.asp.

No Nick, that statement is correct but it reads "mix equal parts buy volume" on the bottle however on the Wicks site it says "Mix ratio: 100 to 83 by weight" but doesn't say which is which, or "1 to 1 by volume". Aircraft Spruce doesn't give any mixing instructions but does say it will cure down to 35f degrees but the bottle says "for best results use at 50f degrees or above". The system three web site says "mix 1:1 by volume and it also says it will cure down to 35f degrees. I have never had a problem or a doubt about T-88 mixed 50/50 by volume but I do have a heated construction area. Regards Myron (Dan) Freeman Indpls, Ind. 46203 USA.
