Product Information
Full details
The Refina Mini Round Texture Float is designed for professional applicators who need precision and control when finishing textured coatings in tight or awkward spaces. Its key benefit is enabling a consistent finish even in confined areas where standard tools cannot reach. A potential caveat is its specialized nature, meaning it's best suited for detail work rather than large open areas. This tool features durable ABS blades and a compact, lightweight design for ease of use and reduced fatigue.

FAQs
What is the primary use for this mini float?
This float is primarily designed for precision work and finishing textured coatings in confined or awkward areas where larger tools cannot effectively reach.
What material are the blades made of?
The blades are made of durable 3mm ABS plastic, which is designed for smooth, non-marking finishes.
Can this float be used for large areas?
While it can be used, it is optimized for detail work. For large, open areas, a larger texture float would be more efficient.
How should I clean the float?
Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth after each use. Ensure it is dry before storing.
Is this float suitable for all types of render?
It is suitable for textured and thin coat renders, silicone top coat renders, and repair work. For very coarse aggregates, a different tool might be more appropriate.
What does 'mini round' refer to?
'Mini' refers to its compact size for detail work, and 'round' describes the shape of the float head, aiding in specific finishing patterns and maneuvers.
Troubleshooting
Inconsistent finish or drag marks
Ensure the render is at the correct consistency. Clean the ABS blades of any dried material. Apply consistent, light pressure during application.
Float feels awkward to handle
Experiment with grip and angle. The lightweight design should reduce fatigue, but proper technique is key for precision.
Material sticking to the blades
Clean the blades immediately after use. If material has dried, soak the blades in water briefly before cleaning.
