Release Agent Cost Calculator

Compare your current release agent with ZP on the only number that matters: cost per 1,000 shots. Enter your own figures — the calculator works with your data, not ours.

How the comparison stays fair: cost per 1,000 shots = price per kg × spray volume per shot ÷ dilution ratio. Same machine, same spray settings, same parts — only the chemistry changes. If a supplier quotes a lower price per kg but a weaker dilution, this calculator catches it.

Assumptions & honest notes

Frequently asked questions

The questions buyers actually ask before the first drum. Answered without marketing language.

Why compare cost per 1,000 shots instead of price per kg?

Because price per kg says nothing about how far a drum goes. Cost per 1,000 shots = price per kg × spray volume per shot ÷ dilution ratio. A cheaper drum with a weaker dilution can cost more per 1,000 shots — the calculator shows it immediately.

What is the landed-cost multiplier?

It adds freight and import duty so you compare delivered cost rather than ex-works price. For Brazil it is around 1.28. If your current brand is produced locally, leave it at 1.00 and enter its delivered price directly.

Are the prices pre-filled in the calculator real?

No — they are examples. Replace them with your own invoice price for a true comparison. Our quoted price comes with the sample plan, and we never publish a dilution ratio we have not confirmed with the factory.
