Scope note
Mechanical tools designed to blend different paint colors or components by propelling paint cans in a rapid, oscillatory motion. Typically composed of a paint can clamp, used to secure the can in position, and a motor, these devices were initially intended to replace manual paint stirrers. For the small, hand-held tools designed to manually mix paint components, use "paint stirrers."
