Flexis will take strain off the wrist but they’re only for the last trowel, they can ride over bumps if used too earlyI got out of plastering back in 89 and has rendered ever since but recently had a semi to re-skim. My trowels are a 11” & 13” Ox stainless.
I had a lad give me a hand for a day and he troweled up with a flexi trowel stainless, he reckons it takes out the effort out of troweling up, is he right?
I quit plastering for several reasons but a wrist injury has stopped me coming back full time as it flares up but for the odd day I will consider now I am semi retired. Anything for less strain on the wrist, skimming does it Hard wall is no problem.

It is that last troweling what takes pressure so it may be of benefit to me, thanks.Flexis will take strain off the wrist but they’re only for the last trowel, they can ride over bumps if used too early
Hope you’re well John. They’re definitely less harsh on the wrist but most of the pushing is done with a normal trowel. I use them for finishing and that’s it.I got out of plastering back in 89 and has rendered ever since but recently had a semi to re-skim. My trowels are a 11” & 13” Ox stainless.
