I've been through 2 blades and my mate snapped his all in the same spot on the toe and I don't use them all the time, bear in mind it's a bit of plastic I could have a brand new marshal town gold for that money, there good I know there good but I'm not going to keep using them for that money

Why are you ordering more have yours broke too lol

 

[Curry]

We have a s**t hot system that uses speedskims, s*p*r*lex spats and the plastic trowels. Just got a job with 18000m2 to be done so need to make sure we have the tools for everyone to use the system and replicate what we do.

Fair play how does that work spray it, flatten it then trowel it up

 

[Curry]

Well done mate, good buy that if thats what you use

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

What's the difference between a plastic and steel trowel? Plastic seems cheap to me! Or am I missing something?

 

[Curry]

More or less, the right tools just make it even easyer :RpS_thumbsup:

 

[spunky]

Good system mate I can see it catching on

 

[bodplasterer]

Just took a look they do look crap mate there less than 11" as well.

 

[spunky]

Brilliant

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

Why plastic trowels? Why not steel?

 

[spunky]

Plastic doesn't drag the surface you have to try them to know what I mean

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

Do you use them for flattening? laying on?

 

[spunky]

Just cross troweling mate

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

:RpS_thumbup: I'll order one and try it

 

[spunky]

Cool Have a good go at the edges and round the corners with some sandpaper then cross trowel a wall or some plasterboard a few times before you use it, might be s**t yet mate I've never seen them before

Warehouse is it you whos selling them?

 

[kemp]

might order mysen 1 though never used a plazy trowel before so dunno what to make of em but ya seem to swear by em spunky so the cant be to bad

 

[spunky]

As long as the plastic plays nicely they could be alright mate, there only a few quid worth a pop
