Piece of Crap Dec 08, 2010
By Christopher C. Tew
This paint mixer did not work for me. It is both over-kill and schlock. The stirrer is a loop of coiled wire welded offset to a very thin wire shaft. It rotates too fast and the shaft is so weak and long that it and the loop, left to themselves, wildly describe a propeller-like circle, so you have to start with the loop inside the paint bottle and steady the shaft with a finger. The loop cannot be cleaned by simple wiping and must be soaked and swished in thinner. The loop will not fit inside an airbrush cup safely, only the larger airbrush bottles. The loop shaft is molded into a plastic bushing that connects it to the motor shaft, and the loop shaft came out of the bushing almost immediately and will not refit tightly. This is a good thing, since otherwise the gizmo, should the loop shaft stay in place, is capable of throwing the paint bottle across the room and flinging droplets of paint everywhere.
I soon snipped the loop off and bent a small diamond shape into a shortened shaft. It would have worked much better than the loop if the shaft had ever stayed in the bushing. I ended up repairing my 30-year-old X-Acto mini-drill that I use with a shorter, thicker shaft with a diamond bend at the end which will fit where it's needed. This gizmo might be good for beating a single egg or mixing a cocktail if you're already planning on giving the preparation area a thorough cleaning, but it really doesn't make the grade as a hobby paint mixer.
