I always recommend new acrylic pour artists measure they paint with a kitchen scale. This ensures you are mixing your paints the same way every time and will produce more consistent results.

This isn't always an options though. If you don't have a scale at home here are 4 ways you can mix your acrylic paint. I've listed them in the order of the least effective to the most effective, at least in my opinion.
