PBW is "Parts by weight" so you can measure it by weight in grammes or kilos no problem just using the 100:5 ratio.

To put it in straight-forwards terms; for every 100g of Silicone, you need to mix in 5g of catalyst As examples: 20g silicone = 1g catalyst 300g silicone = 15g catalyst 500g silicone = 25g catalyst

Excellent thank you

Can you remind me how much silicone pigment I add to get strong colour without affecting the mix negatively? Many thanks!! Floodylan
