Hello.

Complete novice. Over the years have used a few 11inch trowels for patching roughcast, floating concreting etc

But when it came to some drywall amd plaster l would say they have too small for me. I had a go at plastering a wall im puting french doors in this week as needed the bead to to deck as it was an old window slap out.

As a first timer i decided to buy a 13 inch £10 forge steel from screwfix. Worked well and put stuff on the wall very nicely, once i bet my mix right i i see it being good.
However, i felt it stiff on the finishing and polish. Im thinking to the ox ultraflex, but shoulf a get 16 or 14???
Then the Ragni 17 inch rears its head


Any thought's would be magic guys.

Thanks
