How to use

Hold the scraper with a firm grip and position the blade at a shallow angle to the surface to avoid gouging. Apply even pressure and move the tool along the surface in controlled strokes to lift paint, adhesive or sealant. For glass and tiles, maintain a low angle and use short strokes to reduce risk of scratching; for tougher residues on metal or painted substrates, increase pressure gradually. Inspect the blade before use and replace or dress it if damaged. Always work slowly in detailed areas and finish the surface with appropriate abrasives or cleaners if required.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when scraping. Test the scraper on a small inconspicuous area first to assess potential surface damage. For stubborn residues, combine mechanical scraping with a suitable chemical remover following the chemical manufacturer's instructions. Store the tool in a dry place to avoid corrosion and keep spare blades available if frequent heavy use is expected.
