New Plastic Skimming trowels from Plasterers 1 Stop Shop

[sub55]

Never having used one of these new fangled products , somebody tell me whats actually going on at the contact point between wall/plaster and the plastic edge of the trowel. That makes it beneficial over my stainless marshaltown.
The above relates to the final troweling up when you guys seem to use it.

There are a few different types Beddy. We do the plastic ones a well and also the longer version of the link. We the tough ones are the best, great life span on them and you don't need to keep buying pads
