A paint colorant dispenser for dispensing colorants into both large and small containers includes a cabinet for accommodating a plurality of color and canisters in fluid communication with a common dispense outlet. A container shelf unit is disposed in front of the cabinet and below the dispense outlet. The shelf unit includes a horizontal base disposed below the dispense outlet upon which large containers can rest. The shelf unit also includes a pivoting shelf which can pivot upward and provide a horizontal resting surface closer to the dispense outlet for smaller containers. A controller, keyboard and monitor are contained in a second modular cabinet that can be disposed on either side of the first cabinet. An additional modular cabinet can be provided for accommodating additional colorant canisters. A drip containment system is disposed in the modular shelf unit.

An improved paint mixer is disclosed which includes a base and an upper cabinet pivotally connected to the base. The upper cabinet can be pivoted from a first rearward position which provides access to a front section of the base and a second forward position which provides access to a rear section of the base. As a result, both the front and rear section of the base are easily accessible for service, maintenance, and cleaning. A support system that includes three adjustable legs provides improved support and stability. Casters disclosed at the rear end of the bottom of the base along with a recessed wall of the base and a handle disposed at the front of the base make it easier to move and/or relocate the mixer. Non-stick coatings in the form of a paint-resistant coating or an anti-graffiti coating to the inside surfaces of the mixer facilitate the removal of accumulated paint.
