Does this come with a chart listing how much mass at what position on the lever translates into what pressure the plunger applies?

Below we give the average value of the coefficient of additional pressure on the piston depending on the length of the arm: Length 1 - 3,2 Length 2 - 4,2 Length 3 - 5,2 Length 4 - 5,6 Length 5 - 6,2 Length 6 - 7,6 Length 7 - 8,2

Does the weight come with it?

Weight doesn't come with but you can use any convenient one. When applying the load of the press arm WITHOUT additional WEIGHT, we obtain a pressure on the form with a force of 4 lb. When additional weight is applied to different levels (arm length), the pressure on the piston increases.

Could i paint this product with waterproof sealant and still use it to make cheese?

I don't think it is recommended unless it a food grade paint or coating. Because the cheese is inside the press for up to 24 hours it could leach chemicals and paint flavor into your cheese.
