Hi,
Does any one use one they can recommend?
Has to fit Coat D’arms paint pots if that makes a different.
I paint only intermittently and have a lot of oldish paints that I am now finding a pain to manually shake and get mixed to a reasonable consistency.
cheers

Never argue with an idiot. They'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I already try that, have done for years, it does help but not enough.

03/01/2019 at 20:48 #106847I have one of these, which works well enough, but is not worth the price being asked here. I think I paid about 20 quid at least 5 years ago.

If you were keen to make a paint shaker, it’s a simple matter of a geared irregular weight, a small electric motor, a 9v battery, straps and a base.

Works really well when combined with SS balls. Did have to super-glue the little screw that holds the cradle as it kept shaking itself loose.

hmm, errr, if you say so….
Thanks for the various suggestions, a nail shaker sounds like the best bet so it’s time for Amazon!

Which is nice 🙂
