Caulkers - versatile filling and smoothing blades
A staple in many decorators' toolboxes, a caulking blade, or caulker for short, has a number of uses. With a wider profile than standard filling knives, it enables you to fill gaps of many shapes and sizes quickly and efficiently, with the flexible plastic blade effectively pushing filler into cracks and holes. It is particularly useful where plasterboards are being married together, where long joins require sealing.
It is also ideal for smoothing out wallpaper and particularly lining paper, with wide strokes that smooth the paper into place and chase out air bubbles. It can also be used as a straight edge for short cuts.
The handle is made from lightweight wood and shaped for comfort and reduced hand fatigue. Note that this product is not suitable for smoothing freshly applied plaster or as a scraper.
