We supply a competing s*p*r*lex-ible trowel from NeLa, within the range we also do the MediFLEX which has the same type of blade and degree of Flexibility as Refina.

We always advise laying on with a ridgid trowel, such as the Premium or a MT and also flattening with these. Therefore, only using a MF or SF type of trowel to finish with. The MF has less flexibility compared to the NeLa SF so can also be used for flattening.

Any trowel with any degree of FLEX will only follow contours and glide over bumps, its wont flatten them.

As @dsdave says, that is the best procedure.

Let us know how you get on with that mate :numberone:

If your using sf to coat with its gonna loose its shape ...try using outside of the trowel on the ceilings ( just walk them)

I preferred Quincy to columbo, but I get where your coming from.
 
Diagnosis murder was another favourite! But how can you use a s*p*r*lex for 2-3 years right through out the set and not realise that something wasn't right?
