| viscosity |
The physical property of fluids to resist flow. In general, in liquids, increases with decreasing temperature. The unit of measure in viscosity in the metric system is poise but since it is a large unit, centipoise or 1/100th of a poise is usually employed.

| viscosity |
The thickness of a fluid. This is used to determine flow rates for spray application. Usually measured with a #2 Zahn cup or #4 Ford cup. Viscosity can be decreased by using the appropriate thinner.
