New trowel breaking in advice

Members online

Best way to break in a new Marshalltown Gold stainless steel Trowel, it's pre broken in which I understand still needs further breaking in but just looking for best ways?
Seen few ways i.e trowel each side paving slab or sand paper edges etc until razor sharp. Wondered thoughts?
Also corners need sanding etc?
Cheers
 
Cockney one of the lads I work with told me to do sand/cement render jobs with this exact Trowel for about 3 weeks before internal plaster work to fully break in, that's all good I will do so but any other tips to break in away from actual jobs? Will be part of a rendering Job April but anything I can do in spare time to help break in I will? Cheers for any advice

Soak a screeded floor, or smooth set concrete.

Rub the trowel hard, ALONG each eged into the wet floor

It won't heat up, steady pace, firm pressure

60 or 70 strokes the length ways ALONG each edge


Nib the corners too
Look at any well worn trowel, replicate

Using this, you can get any trowel 90% there within 10 to 15 mins
