Quite possibly. If the speed means that the viscosity of the mix overcomes the size/weight of the mixing ball used, then yes, it's too fast. 18 RPM is perhaps the best all around speed for good results in a reasonable time.
You can always give the 30 RPM unit a try, but if you don't get good results don't give up on the mixer idea - just get a slower motor and try again. And if it should turn out that it works for you and the finish you're using, then stick with it. .......... Re: EPOXY MIXER

I found one on @#$%& for $22.00 but it is at 30rpm..... I was thinking that it would be to fast as well..... but for $22.00+ s/h it may be worth a shot..... Thanks.....M Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 10/20/2005 10:43PM by Tom Kirkman. Re: EPOXY MIXER

The same money will get you an 18 RPM unit from FishSticks 4U, a sponsor here. Custom Tackle may also have them although I can't say what the price will be. I do know they are high quality motors.

Michael,
I bought several 18 RPM motors from Bob at Custom Tackle for a decent price. Call them on the phone & inquire about price. They're great folks to do business with - outstanding service & straight forward answers to questions. Stan Re: EPOXY MIXER
