There are anagram solvers on the web that will do this for you.

http://www.ssynth.co.uk/~gay/cgi-bin/nph-an?line=MXERPLAITS&words=2&dict=antworth&doai=on

gives lots, including "limp extras" and "prism latex"

produces similar results, but not limited to 2 words

mombasa-ga,
That's a very disappointing rating for the researcher. You asked for
two words and they gave them to you.
argenta-ga

i agree, what a terrible rating for someone that gave you what you asked for...

PLASTER MIX is the only "two word" combination that means anything in this list.
