For what it's worth my grandfather devised an electric stirrer to
mix paint. He'd puch a small hole in the center of the paint can lid.
Then cut a length of coat hanger, bend it to fit inside the can,
extending out several inches, thread it thru the lid, seal the lid back
on, insert the protruding end of the hanger into an electric drill
chuck, tighten, turn on. From personal experience, it works very well,
with no mess. You could use a eggbeater drill instead, but that
wouldn't be near as much fun. Of course, if you don't use all the
paint, and want to re-use the can, you'd have to seal the hold somehow -
but that's one of the things you have duct tape for.
