VG

[padiho]

I usually buy aqueous vg, is there much difference between that to the vg bought in a chemist?

If I have a 70/30 pg/ vg mix how much vg would I have to add to make it about 50/50 ? I know someone on here will have the answer, forum full of helpful,patient clever clogs

I get mine from Tescos, never bought aqueous, but as I understand it yours is thin enough to work with but chemists', like mine, will need thinning - either with de-ionised water, or with vodka. I use vodka, at about 10%. Preferably you get water from a chemist or some other human-consumption supplier, not from a garage.

If you had 10ml of 70/30 then that's 7ml pg, 3ml vg, so you'd need to add 4ml of VG to make it 7&7ml. But you're diluting the flavour. So add some flavour to the juice - say 1ml, and the flavour will probably be pg based, so add a little more vg - say another ml.
