Stainless Steel Paint Stirrer Tamiya 74017

When bottles been sitting for awhile and a mixing ball just isn't getting it done. These are great for those times, reaches down to the bottom and scrapes up the clumped pigment, then cleans up easy.

These are simple tools that do the job.

Must have tools for all hobbyists. Just a quick wipe with a paper towel and they are clean. The cupped end is excellent for metering out paint onto your pallet or mixing cup.

Didn't think I'd ever need to buy dedicated paint stirrers but these have been very useful. Material has kept up with a lot of use and some abuse.

Tamiya paint sticks are great for grabbing contrast or normal paint out of citadel paint pots. The flat end can also be used to clean up gummed bottle seals and the like, although this is not their intended use and if you do this too much you could deform the sticks (as seen in the bottom most stick in the image). I can't live without these though, and I have come to accept that they'll eventually get deformed one way or another. Still good for taking apart ebay salvage minis though - the flat and blunt end makes for a better lever than a hobby knife, which could cut into salvage. Great value!
