Easy to use
Easy to use. Just toss a couple into your paints and get shaking. The product packaging is also made so you can open it, remove what you need and store whatever is left unused in the original packaging.

Good quality.
I have some old pots of paint that need extra help to mix well so I use a couple and worked like a charm. The rest are good just with one.

They serve their purpose well
I use these to mix the Testors enamel model paints that come in the tiny glass bottles. It can be difficult or messy to shake or stir these paints by conventional methods after they have sat for a while and separated, but these ball bearings are the perfect size to make short work of the task.I would recommend these without reservation.

Part of a con that I can get behind.
Army Painter paints are great, lots of pigment, dropper bottles, can be thinned down and still cover in smooth coats, but the paint is thicker than Vallejo so having these steel mixing balls are a must have. That is the con right there. Army Painter Paints knows about their issue with their paints and then instead of just adding the balls to their paints during production, they sell you what you need. They are great, they work and not just for their paints, add them to Vallejo, Citadel, and other paints as well for better mixing. They come packaged as a set of 100 so put them in every bottle you own, they won't rust or react to the paints too. Oh yeah while you are at it, I can't recommend enough a nail polish shaker to go with this to save your wrists.

Balls of steel, heart of a hobbyist
After all the varied reviews of this product and Amazon products in general (wrong product, wrong photos etc). I decided to write my first review. Package arrived intact and sealed. I took these balls and dropped them in one cup water, one cup salt, for over 15 days. There was no sign of any rust under 5x magnification, on either set. They work great, and as intended. I recommend two balls per bottle/pot. Especially if your shaking them by hand. They’ll bring back even the oldest paint with two balls, and a little distilled water. I use Vallejo acrylic paints and primer, as well as citadel shades for reference.

Excellent for mixing modeling paint in its own bottle.
I've used this product before to mix modeling paint in its bottle. The stainless-steel balls do not affect the paint at all, unlike using "B-Bs" as a mixing vehicle where the copper plating comes off and ruins the paint.Also, I received the product from the vendor within two days of ordering. I will buy this product again.
