WHAT IS A PAINT SHAKER

A miniature paint stirrer is a tool used in the hobby of modeling and painting miniature figures. It is also referred to as a paint mixer or shaker mixer. Its main purpose is to properly mix the paint before it is applied to the miniatures. Here is some information about its uses and advantages:

WHAT A PAINT SHAKER IS USED FOR:

1. Paint mixing: miniature paints often have pigments and binders that can separate over time. A paint stirrer helps to mix these components evenly to obtain a homogeneous consistency.
2. Pigment spreading: Some paints contain very fine pigments that can settle to the bottom of the container. A paint stirrer helps disperse these pigments evenly to prevent them from building up and affecting the paint application.

ADVANTAGES OF PAINT SHAKERS

1. Time savings: manually stirring paint can take time and effort. An automated paint stirrer, such as a hand-held stirrer or an electric stirrer, speeds up the mixing process and saves time.
2. More uniform results: By mixing the paint properly, a uniform consistency is achieved and potential problems such as lumps or pigment separation are avoided, resulting in a smoother application and a more professional finish.
Increased durability: By avoiding pigment build-up at the bottom of the container, the life of the paint is extended. In addition, good mixing ensures that the paint components are balanced, which helps maintain the quality of the paint over the long term.
