FormulaExpressTM calculates the amount of each toner necessary to make the specified color. These measurements depend on how much paint is needed. Therefore, the system starts at 1 Quart and lets you choose how much paint you need. The results are shown in Actual or Cumulative format, which are explained below.
Actual
An Actual measurement shows the recipe for each formula, with the exact amount of each component that goes into the mix.
Cumulative
An Cumulative measurement is useful when you are creating the paint formula using a Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes paint mixing system. As you add each component to the mix, you would check the total weight of the recipe, eliminating the need to measure each component separately.

Of course, components have to be put into the recipe in the order listed.
