Faithfull Pointing Trowel - 125mm (5in) - FAISGTPT5

A pointing trowel is primarily used for forming and repairing brick joints, applying mortar to small areas, and shaping or retouching damaged mortar.

No, this 125mm pointing trowel is designed for smaller, more detailed tasks. For spreading large amounts of mortar, a larger brick trowel would be more efficient.

After each use, clean the blade thoroughly with water, dry it completely, and store it in a dry place. Applying a light coat of oil can provide extra protection against rust during long-term storage.

The 'London pattern' refers to a specific shape and design of the trowel blade, optimized for effective mortar application and shaping, particularly in bricklaying.

While it can be used for minor plaster repairs, this trowel is specifically designed for mortar work and brick joints, not for general plastering applications.

The soft grip handle is designed to provide enhanced comfort and reduce hand fatigue during extended periods of use, making the trowel more ergonomic.

Ensure the blade is clean and dry before use. Applying a thin layer of oil can sometimes help, but clean thoroughly after use. Correct mortar consistency is also key.

Ensure you are gripping the trowel correctly. If discomfort persists, consider wearing work gloves for added padding.

Clean the blade thoroughly with a mild abrasive pad or steel wool and water. Dry immediately and apply a thin coat of lubricating oil for storage. Store in a dry environment.
