    What I do is use 3 clear cups. 1 for the A part and 1 for the B part. On the outside of the 3rd cup I have made lines using a sharpie, I use this cup to measure by sight.
    How I do this is I take the part A cup and stack it inside the measuring cup and pour until it reaches my fill line. Then I take the part A cup out of the measuring cup and put the part B cup in and repeat the process.
