Soft sponge float 25 mm No name PACA 25 GM P — plastering hand tool with 25mm sponge

Soft sponge float No name PACA 25 GM P is a compact plastic hand tool equipped with a 25 mm thick soft sponge intended for smoothing and finishing plaster, cement renders and textured coatings. Its lightweight construction and ergonomic size make it suitable for manual plastering and small repairs where control and even pressure are needed to achieve a uniform surface appearance on walls and ceilings.

Advantages

The soft 25 mm sponge provides gentle contact with the substrate, reducing the risk of overworking fresh plaster and helping to remove excess material without scratching. The plastic float body is lightweight and resistant to corrosion, which contributes to ease of handling and longer service life in wet environments. The tool’s compact size allows precise work around corners, edges and small areas where larger floats are impractical.

Suitable for

• Smoothing and finishing interior and exterior plaster and render
• Evening out cement-based and gypsum surfaces
• Applying and texturing thin coat renders and repair patches
• Working on walls, ceilings and small renovation areas

Key specifications

• Sponge thickness: 25 mm soft foam
• Float material: plastic body with soft sponge face
• Tool type: hand float for plastering and finishing
• Weight: lightweight, designed for manual use
• Primary use: smoothing and finishing plaster, renders and textured coatings

How to use

Prepare the substrate according to the material manufacturer’s instructions and mix plaster or render to the recommended consistency. Hold the float with even pressure and move it across the surface in broad, overlapping strokes to distribute material and smooth high spots. For finishing, use lighter, more uniform strokes to create an even texture; periodically rinse and squeeze the sponge to remove accumulated residue and maintain consistent contact with the surface. Replace the sponge if it shows signs of wear that affect finish quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the soft sponge float on well-mixed, workable plaster or render and avoid aggressive scrubbing on delicate surfaces. Rinse after use and allow the tool to dry to prolong sponge life. When working outdoors, protect the tool from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use to prevent premature degradation of the sponge material.
