I do not recommend this product or company

I ordered cups and lids, the lids didn't fit the cups and I returned the item only to receive half of my purchase price and then charge the full purchase amount a month and a half later. I would stay away from this company and their products, obviously no one follows what they do, lids and mugs were ordered together and should match the mugs

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Something else

Essential cups for mixing and measuring paint

I find them particularly useful for measuring and mixing resin, plaster or polyurethane foam for my model railway layout. The beauty is that they're affordable, have exemplary quality, and their dual function (measuring and mixing) saves time. Even my 72 year old eyes can easily see increments in ounces. As an added bonus, the developers have provided helpful markings to make it easier to mix two to three ingredients in the recommended ratio. For example from 1:1 to 8:1:1.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Fragile cups break easily.

Unfortunately they are not worth the money. First of all, I only got ten cups instead of twelve, and two of the ten were cracked, so unusable. When trying to remove the cup from the stack, the rim of the cup broke off, so these cups are not very strong. Thin plastic and somewhat fragile. I can't imagine what would happen if you had to apply pressure when mixing something viscous like silicone etc. The dimensions printed on the mug may be helpful. I will not buy these again.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Hard to say

When it comes to paint kits, size matters

Hello, my previous statement and review below is completely wrong. This is the second set of blender cups I've bought since the first ones were 8 oz. These mugs were perfect, good quality, not flimsy and easy to read gauges. So please ignore the first review. "Um, the photo is deceptive, the description says 12 oz. But the photo looks like large 32oz containers which I should have ordered the day they arrived. I didn't return them because I can still use them in my art studio, but they just…

Do Not Buy: Ratio measurement is inaccurate and cups are brittle

I have used these measuring cups to measure epoxy resin and hardener in a 1:1 ratio. After the second pour I noticed I had more hardener left than resin. It turns out that the 1:1 ratio is actually a 1.15 to 1 ratio. I measured with a lab grade graduated cylinder and 115ml makes it to line 1 and another 100ml fills the beaker to line 2. No wonder my epoxy countertops don't cure. ! I spent about $100 on epoxy and countless hours of labor. Also, only 10 out of 12 cups were intact when I received…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • unreliable

Labeling makes mix ratio trivial

I bought these for pouring and pouring but yesterday I suddenly realized I need to dilute the solvent 1:4 by volume with water. I took one of these with the intention of using it as a disposable container. I was pleasantly surprised to see how easy it was to use the ratio labels to get exactly what I needed without worrying about ounces or milliliters. I left the solution overnight to use the rest in the morning. The plastic held up well to the solvent, so when I was done I washed it off with a

  • cool product

Great for mixing resin

They weigh over 32 oz making it easy to mix a full 32 oz. The measurements on the page are easy to read although I'm confused they listed an ounce but half that amount off it (not sure what that measures). Containers can be tricky to separate, but here's a tip. Instead of pulling one from the top (I did and the rim tore). Separate the bottom part by inserting your fingers in between and wringing out the bottom part. Works perfectly. My tops fit great. They said there were fewer lids (6) than…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Fast, accurate measurement

I have a couple of Home Depot mugs that I bought for mixing paint. Unfortunately, the first markings on the mug are "blurred" or "smudged". This calls into question the accuracy of all markings. I've used them with cheaper paints for a while and they mostly worked, although some paints didn't cure properly. When I had to mix some more expensive colors I didn't want to risk whether these mugs were accurate or not. The markings on these mugs are clear and clean and appear dotted. I used this to…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Mixing Cup larger than a standard 32 oz cup

The TCP Mixing Cup allows you to add 32 oz to a cup and still have enough room to stir without spilling. My other mugs I've used have a 32 ounce rim, the maximum I could mix was 29 ounces and I had to stir slowly and carefully to avoid spilling. Now I can mix 34 oz (30 oz + 3 oz + 1 oz) of my catalyzed polish in a cup and not have to bother with stirring. If you take the cup on opposite sides and slowly pull to break the vacuum, they always come out. The person who said they used compressed air

  • Impressive
