It is a plastic plastering tub used for mixing, holding and transporting plaster, jointing compound, fillers or similar materials. It is a basic but essential tool for painters, plasterers and drywall installers on site.
You can mix gypsum plaster, jointing compound, filler, light mortar or similar building products that are compatible with plastic. Avoid using strong solvents or very hot materials that may soften or damage the tub.
Yes. With proper cleaning after each use, the plastic tub can be reused many times. Allowing plaster or compound to harden inside may reduce its life or make cleaning difficult, so cleaning promptly is recommended.
For many light and medium-duty mixing tasks, a plastic tub is easier to handle than a metal bucket because it is lighter, doesn’t rust and is less noisy. However, for very heavy-duty mixes, some tradespeople still prefer metal containers.
Yes, you can use a hand-held power mixer or paddle in the tub, as long as you do not hit the sides too aggressively. Avoid using high speed near the base and corners to prevent gouging or damaging the plastic.
Scrape out remaining material with a trowel or scraper before it hardens, then rinse with clean water. For stubborn residue, soak briefly and then scrub. Do not pour thick plaster slurry directly into drains to avoid blockages.
Yes, it is designed to be carried by hand with mixed material inside. However, always respect safe lifting limits and avoid overfilling. Carry with both hands and keep the path clear to prevent spills or accidents.
The tub is made from impact-resistant plastic intended for site conditions. That said, dropping it from height, dragging it across sharp surfaces or exposing it to extreme cold or UV for long periods may reduce durability.
No. It is equally suitable for DIY homeowners carrying out small plaster repairs, as well as for professional contractors working on large projects. Its simple design makes it easy for anyone to use.
No, as long as the tub is clean and free from old hardened material, it will not negatively affect the mix. A smooth interior actually helps achieve a uniform blend and makes it easier to reach all areas while mixing.
