Common questions
Is this for applying or scraping?
Applying. The flexible blade bows to fill and smooth. For scraping in this size, use the stiff 01140.
Why pick this over the 2" 01150?
Nail holes, trim and sash suit 1-1/2". Larger patches suit the 2".
Can I reglaze a window with it?
Yes, for bedding and beveling the glazing. Clear the old compound first with a stiff scraper.
Will it rust?
Stainless wipes clean and does not streak white spackle. The carbon 02100 needs drying and oiling.
Need it for a different job?
- 1-1/2" Stiff Chisel 01140For scraping and prying
- 2" Flexible 01150For wider fills and smoothing
