Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trowels are ready to use immediately out of the box. Before the first use, wipe the stainless steel blades with a clean cloth to remove any factory residue.
Compatibility: These tools are compatible with all standard gypsum-based plasters, lime-based renders, and joint compounds.
Care:
- Clean immediately after use: Do not allow plaster to dry on the blade or handle, as this can degrade the surface and the cork grip.
- Dry thoroughly: To prevent surface oxidation, always dry the blades completely before storage.
- Protect the edges: Never store your trowels with the blades resting on hard surfaces like concrete, as this can nick the precision-ground edge and cause streaks during use.
- Cork maintenance: Occasionally wipe the handle with a damp cloth; avoid harsh solvents that might break down the natural cork material.
