THE RAPID RODD GENERATES A VORTEX WHEN SPINNING. THE BOTTOM CENTER OF THE CONTAINER IS DRY.

The RAPID RODD™ is designed to fit into any electric drill. The MINI
mixer will fit into a 1/4" drive drill. The MIDI and HEAVY-DUTY mixers require a minimum
3/8" drive drill. The recommended driver is a 3/8" to 1/2" VSR drill motor with a
speed range of 0-2500 RPM. These drills perform the best with all three sizes of
the mixer rodds, allowing variable speeds for different materials to be mixed or
blended.
The RAPID RODD™ has been tested on the following materials with excellent results:
Paint, Stains, Drywall Mud, Wall & Ceiling Texture, Thinset Mortar, Grout, Garden
Chemicals, Mortar/Topping Mix, Concrete, Wettable Powders, Epoxies, Adhesives,
and Dry mixes (Mulch/ Manure/Fertilizers).
BEFORE: 1 GALLON OF OIL-BASED PAINT WITH CLEAR LIQUID SEPA- RATION AT THE TOP.

AFTER: SAME CAN OF PAINT, MIXED WITH THE MINI RAPID RODD 10 SECONDS LATER.

The rodd design allows for mixing different consistencies of fluid products with
minimal resistance and strain on the tool. This reduces wear to the rodd mixer,
drill motor and mixing pail, and also results in the thorough blending of ALL
materials, right to the bottom of the pail and into the corners.

CLEANUP IS A SNAP. Unlike other mixers, there aren't any nooks and crannies on
the rodd mixers where residue from mixed materials can build up. For water-based
materials, cleaning consists of rotating the tool in a 5-gallon pail of water for
10 seconds and allowing the swirling water to wash the rodd for another 5 seconds.
The same methods and results work with thinners/cleaners for other products, but
should be used with caution, following 'safe practice' methods around chemicals.
If hand washing is preferred, the rodd MUST be removed from the drill motor
first to avoid personal injury.
