Precision Matters
Mix Chemicals Accurately Every Time
Getting dilution ratios right is not optional in professional detailing. Too strong and you risk damaging paint, trim or rubber seals; too weak and the chemistry simply does not perform. The Work Stuff Measuring Cup gives you a clearly marked, chemical-resistant vessel so every ratio is dialled in before a single drop hits the car.
Why Work Stuff
Every Feature Has a Purpose
Designed around how detailers actually work.
-
Chemical Resistant Body
Polypropylene construction handles strong acids, alkalines and solvents without warping or degrading.
-
Accurate Scale Markings
Clearly printed markings let you hit exact 1:10, 1:20 or custom ratios without guessing.
-
Lid and Strainer Included
The strainer filters particulates during pouring; the lid prevents spills when moving the cup around the bay.
-
Three Size Options
100 ml, 500 ml and 1000 ml cover everything from a single-product dose to bulk workshop mixing.
How It Stacks Up
Work Stuff Measuring Cup vs. a Basic Plastic Jug
A household measuring jug might hold liquid, but it is not built for detailing chemistry. Here is where the difference shows in day-to-day use.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical-resistant polypropylene | Yes | No |
| Strainer included for clean pours | Yes | No |
| Lid to prevent spills | Yes | No |
| Transparent body for easy reading | Yes | Yes |
| Multiple capacity options (100 / 500 / 1000 ml) | Yes | Yes |
| Designed for harsh detailing chemicals | Yes | No |
Built to Last
Workshop-Grade Durability for Daily Use
Polypropylene does not crack, cloud or absorb chemical smells the way cheaper plastics do, so this cup stays reliable wash after wash. The included lid and strainer add practical value that a basic jug simply cannot match in a working detailing environment.

Questions
Frequently asked
Which chemicals is this cup safe to use with?
The polypropylene construction is resistant to the strong acids, alkalines and solvents commonly used in detailing - including traffic film removers, iron fallout removers, degreasers, shampoos and dressings. If in doubt, always check the chemical manufacturer's compatibility data for polypropylene.
What sizes are available?
The Work Stuff Measuring Cup is available in three capacities: 100 ml for small product doses, 500 ml for standard everyday dilutions, and 1000 ml for bulk mixing and large-scale workshop use.
Does the strainer do anything useful in daily detailing?
Yes. When pouring diluted product into a spray bottle or bucket, the strainer catches undissolved particles, sediment or impurities that could block spray nozzles or contaminate your mix. It is a small detail that matters when you are working with concentrated chemistry.
How accurate is the measurement scale?
The scale is clearly marked on the transparent polypropylene body for precise dosing. It allows you to measure exact volumes needed for standard detailing ratios like 1:10 or 1:20, so you are not guessing or over-using product.
Can I use this cup to measure ceramic coating or paint protection products?
It is suitable for most liquid detailing chemicals including sealants and toppers. For reactive chemistry like two-component ceramic coatings, always follow the coating manufacturer's guidance on measuring tools and cross-contamination before using a shared vessel.
Is the lid secure enough to shake or swirl a mix in the cup?
The lid is designed to prevent spills during pouring and while the cup is stored or transported. For vigorous shaking or mixing, transfer to an appropriate sealed container rather than relying on the measuring cup's lid alone.
How do I clean the cup between different chemicals?
Rinse thoroughly with clean water between different product types to prevent cross-contamination. For residue from thick dressings or waxes, a small amount of degreaser diluted in warm water and a light rinse will clear the cup without damaging the polypropylene.
Is this cup suitable for a home detailer or is it aimed at professionals only?
Both. Enthusiasts mixing a 1:10 shampoo ratio for a single wash will benefit from the accuracy just as much as a professional workshop managing multiple chemical concentrations through the day. The 100 ml size is particularly practical for home use where small doses are all you need.
