How to use

Hold the trowel by the ergonomic cork handle with the finger guard positioned for control.

Use the flat face of the blade to shape and level material, and the pointed edge for reaching joints and corners. Regularly clean the blade after use to prevent material buildup and to maintain the stainless steel surface.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select the appropriate mortar or plaster consistency before application. Use moderate, consistent pressure when spreading material to achieve an even finish and avoid overloading the blade. Clean and dry the trowel after each use and store it in a dry place to preserve the cork handle and stainless steel blade.
