Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No specific setup is required. The trowel is ready for use out of the box.
Compatibility: This trowel is designed for use with various tile adhesives and mortars. It is particularly well-suited for medium to large format tiles (e.g., 12 inches and larger in any dimension) and applications where comprehensive adhesive coverage is desired.
Care: To ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- Clean After Each Use: Immediately after use, clean the blade and notches with water to remove any residual adhesive. A brush may be helpful for dislodging hardened material from the notches.
- Dry Thoroughly: After cleaning, dry the trowel completely to prevent rust, especially on the carbon steel blade.
- Storage: Store the trowel in a dry place. Applying a light coat of oil to the blade can offer additional protection against rust if stored for extended periods.
