About these units

P (poise): CGS unit; 100 cP.

cP (centipoise): The everyday unit for oils and fluids; equal to mPa·s.

Dynamic viscosity (resistance to flow) is not kinematic viscosity (which divides by density). Water is about 1 cP (1 mPa·s) at 20 °C. The reyn is one pound-force second per square inch.
