Here is a perfect paint mixer that fits TESTORS Model Paint Jars perfectly! I will show you the unboxing, review, set up and also show you how to save those TESTORS Paint jars your thinking about throwing away.
I use powered mixers due to joint issues. I generally use a vortex mixer (Four Es, about 80 GBP); but I also use one of these to break up paints that have settled quite a lot as I can leave it running for a few minutes without destroying my wrists. I use an A2 size cutting mat to work on. I removed the utterly useless rubber sucker feet from this shaker and instead use some 3M 'velcro' tape; (hard hook side on the mixer and the soft loops on the mat as it's better for when the shaker is stored away), this way it sits very still in use but I can easily store it away.
@@TrekFanNCC-1701 No I'm not Jerry but I heard that maybe a year ago. Bummed me out but maybe as you say, they're still around! I do know many online hobby shops don't seem to carry them anymore. I wonder what's going on?
Bought a Robart paint mixer months ago. It did not last long. The motor only works a few seconds or not at all. I suspect this mixer is very similar as they are all made in china.
awesome video! i gotta get one now!
Thank you

Very good idea!
Awesome 👏

Ray, are you sure about that? I was just on their website.

Model Master has been discontinued for a couple years now. Non-MM Testors stuff is still produced.
@@starsiegeplayer Thank you. I always liked MM. ☹️

Yes, these are definitely not super durable machines! I have already noticed mine getting tired after a few minutes.
