Easy Duracoat Mixing Bottle

I'm in the process of an AR 6.5 SPC build. I had it hydro dipped in a camouflage pattern and clear coated it myself with Duracoat matte clear. The rails and butt tube I did in a Duracoat dark gray matte. Mixing the 1 to 12 mixture can be a pain. I used a one ounce whisky bottle to mix the correct amount of clear and dark gray with the hardener. It worked really great. I poured in a small amount of hardener, about a 1/16th of an inch. Then measured 13/16ths and marked the bottle, then poured in that amount of clear and color. Put the top on and shook the bottle to mix.
