About this deal

Firstly, you should ensure all the tools you use are spotlessly clean as any trace of dirt, grit or old plaster will ruin the finish of your wall.

The 16″ UltraFlex finishing trowel is a wonderfully light and easy-to-use tool. Just like the NelaFLEX, the stainless steel blade makes use of clever twin blade technology. The extra plate of ultra-thin steel helps to reduce weight and improve durability while allowing for flexibility where it’s needed. You’ll recognise the signature bright blue OX handle on this trowel. It’s a replaceable blue rubber grip that is ergonomically designed and fits well in the hand. It helps to keep everything well balanced and proves to be comfortable to use for long periods of time. Recent innovations have brought plastic plastering trowels onto the market. These are excellent for finishing as they are very light and flexible. They also have replaceable blades. Traditionally plastering trowels have a flexible stainless steel blade attached to a base plate and a wooden or plastic handle. These are ergonomically designed to make them comfortable to use. Many plastic handled trowels have a soft grip finish making them grippy and extra comfortable. Clean the wall you are plastering to remove any dust or lose debris. Begin by brushing the wall with a stiff brush and then wipe it down with a damp cloth.

Ultra flexible for a perfect smooth finish!

Prepare the wall with PVA glue. Mix the PVA one part glue to four parts water and brush or roll this onto the wall. Once you have an even first coat you should lightly rake the wall with a notched trowel to give the next layer something to adhere to. You can, of course, buy more than one plastering trowel if you have a lot of work to do and have some experience. You might choose an 18″ trowel to apply the plaster to the wall and a smaller one for finishing. However, if you just want to buy one plastering trowel, a 14″ trowel provides the best balance of efficiency and ease of use.

The plastering trowel is one of a set of plasterers tools that the plasterer uses for his trade. It is used in conjunction with a plastering float and a plasterer’s hawk.
