Common questions
Why choose 5" over 4" or 6"?
More compound and tape per pass than a 4", and more corner control than a 6".
Can it do inside corners?
Yes. It reaches a bit further than a 4". Corners get harder to keep clean at 6".
01740 or 01750?
Same blade. The 01750 adds a nail-setting Hammer Head butt.
Can it do fill and skim coats?
No. Use a wide taping knife for those.
