dedoes paint mixing lids

[mordantly]

i got a few dedoes paint mixing lids.. they are generally used for automotive two-part paints. i'm wondering if anyone knows if they will work on solvent/oil-base paints as well?

Yes. Automotive paint IS a solvent based paint. Much, much stronger then any oil based paint.

The Lids will hold up fine. However, they are basically worthless without the mixing rack.

they say on the website for waterborne, and without the catalyst, the paint won't kick in the can.. but say rustoleum products when the mineral spirits evaporates they cure. i got them so i can use my drill to mix, and have the hassles of opening/stirring/pouring waste hopefully eliminated and maximize product usability life.

Before I got my mixing system (ancient, used, and free) I had a few mixing lids given to me. I used them for primer to mix I took the top plastic piece off and would chuck them into a drill and spin to my hearts content, it worked pretty well for me anyway.
