Pro Blend Bottle Proportioners - Accurately Measure Concentrates

If you purchase your detailing supplies in bulk concentrates, then here's very handy tool to have around, it's called the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner.

Order the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioners on Autogeek.net


Assembly
The Pro Blend Bottle Proportioners come sealed in plastic bags to keep them clean and free from contaminants, so the first thing to do is to remove each Proportioner from it's plastic bag.

Next you'll want to trial-fit the Proportioner to the specific product bottle or jug you'll be pairing to the Proportioner. The Pro Blend Bottle Proportioners come with Universal Fit Suction Tube which you'll need to measure and cut to fit your specific application.

Place the suction tube into the bottle until it bottoms out and then measure or guesstimate the amount of tube you'll need to cut so that the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner can be attached to the bottle without placing any bind on the attaching lid.

Error on the side of caution when making your cut because if after you cut the tube it's still just a little too long you can always trim it to fit.

After making your final cut, place the suction tube into the bottle.

Next, tighten the attaching lid to the threads on the opening of the bottle or jug. Tighten till firm but don't over-tighten and be sure not to cross-thread the lid onto the bottle.

Your Pro Blend Bottle Proportion is ready for use!

How to use the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner
To measure an accurate volume of product you turn the large black plastic cap on the top of the reservoir either clockwise or counterclockwise to raise or lower the internal regulator to the desired amount. Then squeeze the bottle to inject the reservoir with product until the product covers over the top of the regulator. Remove the small black plastic cap and the concentrate can now be poured into your secondary container.



The Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner has a see-through reservoir which makes it easy to see the fill level.

Each Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner comes with an adjustable internal regulator.

Simply twist the top lid while holding the reservoir firmly to raise or lower the regulator to the preferred volume desired. The scale reads in both ounces and milliliters.

Next squeeze the side of the bottle or jug to fill the reservoir to the desired fill level.

As you squeeze you'll see the concentrate spill over the top of the regulator to fill the reservoir.

The Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner makes measuring the correct amount fast, easy and most important... accurate.

Plus there's no messy measuring cup, which has to be rinsed and stored in a clean place to prevent contamination. The small plastic cap on the top of the Pro Blend Bottle Proportion keeps the inside of the unit contamination-free

Hi, i just bought one of these to go along with my Optimum no rinse in the 128 ounce size. I got the matching pro blend to go along with it. What i noticed is the tube from the pro blend seems a lil long so after i have it all screwed on, the pro blend is cocked a little to the side. I was contemplating cutting the pro blends tube to exact height, because i fear over time it will ruin the female pro blend cap due to it being under "stress" from it not being 100% on there right. Can i do this or is it made a little long for a reason? Other than that, i love my pro blend dispenser! Well worth it cause i hate measuring things out.

Wow. Never knew these things existed? I'm use to using a Dema mixer, but this seems neat.

I'm so sorry...

I just realized I forgot to mention that the suction tube can be cut to custom fit the bottle it's being used with. You can and should cut the suction tube to custom fit whichever product you're using.

It's made long for the sole purpose of being a universal part that can be cut to fit a wide spectrum of applications.

For the 32 ounce bottle of DP Rinseless Wash & Gloss and the matching Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner I had to cut approximately 1 3/4" off the suction tube for a customer fit and for the 1-gallon jug of DP Rinseless Wash & Gloss I cut about 3/4" of inch for a customer fit.

When you receive your Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner, simply stick the suction tube into the bottle of product you're going to use it with and then guesstimate where to make the cut and then safely use a scissors or utility knife to cut a small section of the tube off.

It's definitely handy as it makes measuring the correct amount fast, easy and most important... accurate. Plus there's no messy measuring cup, which you has to be rinsed and stored in a clean place to prevent contamination. The little plastic cap on the top of the Pro Blend Bottle Proportion keeps the inside of the unit contamination-free.

I'll edit my original thread and add the pictures I just posted above and a few more.

Just out of coincidence, we used and demonstrated the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner in a new video we shot on Saturday.


:)
 
Very cool. I can use about 10 of those. :dblthumb2:

Mike,

Does it work well with thicker products like Meg' Gold Class car wash or similar?

Thanks,
Mike

I love mine. I have them on my DP RW&G and my DP microfiber detergent.
 
Thanks Mike. I believe the issues with these proportioners are likely due to the tube length and interference, as you depict, with the bottle bottoms. Discovered what I believed to be that problem with a 32oz optimum Car Wash bottle and appropriate proportioner.

Also, very, very clear and detailed pictorial to show how it all works. The simpler and more graphic, the better the answer. Appreciate the effort for a simple, but disconcerting problem.

See ya.

What a great idea! But when are you guys going to finally embrace the metric system? :laughing:

lol... Honestly the US will probably never completely go. We like to be different. :D
 
Hi Mike,

Sorry I didn't look into this, I'll do so first thing tomorrow...


:)

I am going to guess that the answer is no, because I have not any luck with the device when using it with my bottle of Meguiar's Hyper Wash.

Either that, or I'm doing it wrong. Any advice, Mike?

Thanks.

I actually like it when people bring up old threads like this one...

To keep things in context, The Critic is talking about the question asked of me in this post,


Mike,

Does it work well with thicker products like Meg' Gold Class car wash or similar?

Thanks,
Mike


If I ever did get back to the above question and do any kind of checking or testing I don't remember the outcome.

My guess is "no" as it's trying to push a thick liquid up a thin tube and as the saying goes....

Something's gotta give....


In these case a person can use a simple measuring cup, I have 3 different measuring cups out in the garage and one by my coffee maker.

That or use the Glug-Glug Method.

Mike,

I tried it with dp extreme shampoo and not its far to thick to work effectively but it is really easy to clean and I am sure I will reuse it again soon!


Regards,


Ronan
