I just did the Etex thing for the first time myself. Its much easier than everyone makes it out to be. I used a 1" foam brush to apply the etex. They're much cheaper than regular brushes and you don't have to worrry about hairs coming out of them. As far as mixing goes I used a 1oz portion cup similiar to what duck sauce comes in from a chinesse restaurant. I measured both parts in their own cups then poured then into a shallow dish. MIX WELL. If it makes bubbles dont worry thats a sign that its mxing well. I did 8 plugs with that amount. I applied it back to front the width way, then went top to bottom the long way, gave me 100% coverage. If you do get drips, just wipe them away with the brush afterwards. The etex will combine back with itself with no signs you fixed it.
