Mixing in HDPE jugs

[Guest]

How would you mix powdered bark in a HDPE jug with only a 2'' opening.

And also then mix the naptha.

?

get like a piece of paper or a funnel and put it in slowly and carefully...

im asking how to mix when its not big enough to stir.

Not meaning to be unhelpful but you really can't puzzle out this insurmountable hurdle by yourself?

 

[Guest]

i dont want to go shaking them as i dont want to create an emulsion.
id just like one person to let me know what they do if using the same kind of containers..

usually use steel stockpots but want to do a bigger amount.

You're right, I apologise. You just need to gently up end your sealed containers several times. Unless you shake the hell out of it emulsions shouldn't be too much of a problem. If you get one it can be easily fixed

thankyou.

would this be less effective than if i could stir the mixtures? (as i have previously done in a dream)

I never stir, always up-end, works fine.

If its a round container, rolling it along the floor for a minute or so also works. Just make sure its sealed very well otherwise thats a mess I don't even want to imagine how much work it would be to clean up. On second thought maybe just hold it over your bathtub and roll it as if it was rolling on the floor.
