AK Interactive Stainless Steel Shakers 250 Count AKI 892

These are just stainless steel ball bearings that can be purchased cheaper at hardware stores and online. They have been rebranded for hobby usage as paint agitators. Despite this, I still prefer to use these. The price is not outrageous, the packaging convenient and there is the added peace of mind that they have been sourced and confirmed to be safe for your paint. Some sources will advertise their ball bearings as one material, while having unmentioned additives which can cause rusting which will ruin the paint the rusted bearing is immersed in. If you aren't using agitators, you should be. If you don't want to shell out for agitators and happen to collect metal figures, know that you can use parts of pewter figures for the same purpose as ball bearings. Just make sure your figures are lead free, for your own good. They come in the small jar you can see in the attached photo.

All in all, these are superior to the army painter offering as you get an exponentially greater quantity of agitators, and the jar is superior to the army painters packaging which is just their usual blister packs. A minor note, but something to note nonetheless.

Very useful, no rust. I put 1-6 in my paint bottles depending on the paint.

These shakers are excellent to help mix up paint. And as usual delivery was lightning fast.

Good Shakers, I've been using them for almost two years in various model painting products and haven't seen any corrosion.

Not only this product is way better priced then other similar one, combined with my homemade shaker, no paint left behind!
