Really useful ideas. Thanks. One of the gizmos I have often thought about is a device for shaking up paint containers. I am sure we used such a device in my school chemistry lessons. Would one of these wotsits work for paint? If so, what are they properly called?

I like these ideas and since I don't have a seperate place to paint ( I have to keep moving around the house to avoid my "significant other" cleaning everything up), I'll give 'em a try, thx!

If I did the conversion correctly, this is not advice for transfering from GW nastypots. It looks like a great idea but if I calculate right, you would need 8 of those 2ml microcentrifuge tubes per jar of GW paint (listed as 1/2 oz). The other draw back is what to do with 1000 tiny jars when not using them. I don't see how I could ever need so many. Still, a few could be useful.

finn17: What you're looking for is a vortexer. They aren't cheap, at around $150.00-$200.00 US for one. But they do mix the paint good, I can attest to that.

vincegamer: I still would go with the 1/2 oz boston round dropper bottles for GW paint, although the scintillation vials I talk about are excellent for holding GW paint.

Anybody else try these ideas yet? Have any ideas of your own?
