ABSTRACT:
A palette for providing a surface upon which a user can mix blendable materials, such as vehicle body repair fillers, with a mixing instrument is disclosed. The palette includes a base (12) which, in a preferred embodiment, is a substantially rectangular planar member. To allow the palette to be steadily held during use, a stabilizing apparatus (14) is provided which allows the user to hold the palette and which includes, in a preferred embodiment, a thumb hole (20) defined by the base (12). The stabilizing apparatus (14) further includes a cut-out (18) defined by the base (b 12) which allows the user to steady the palette by placement against the user's body. To receive the materials to be blended, a pad (24) of disposable mixing sheets (26) is secured to the base (12). Each of the disposable mixing sheets (26) is releasably bonded to the other sheets (26). Further, the disposable mixing sheets (26) are preferably constructed of non-porous materials to prevent absorption of the blendable materials into the sheets (26), and further to prevent the contamination of the blendable materials which would result if the blendable materials and the sheets (26) combine during use. To allow the sheets (26) to be separated from the pad (24) after use, an unbonded portion (32) of the perimeter of the pad (24) is provided whereby the user may grasp and lift the sheets (26).
