Mixxing Ratio

Okay I finally got my John Deere Blitz Black paint today after waiting three weeks and going through two different dealers! I have read the whole giant post on hotrodders.com about JDBB and everyone on there says the mix ratio is 8:1 but reading on the can it says 10:1. My book sense tells me just mix it like the instructions say but I wanted to get a few more opinions on it. I am so ready to do this!! The last thing on my list to get is an 3M respirator from the paint shop!

It deepends on what the your using. Is it 10 parts paint to one part activator or is it 10 parts paint to one part reducer. If it is just the reducer you can start at 8 to 1 and spray on a small spot if it is to thin and wants to run just add 2 more parts to make it 10 to 1. If it is an activator go with the instructions on the can.
