how can you put on with a plastic trowel surely running it down your handboard its gonna knacker up eventully not to mention any little scratches or nicks

 

[theboss]

A simple reply to my pm would have been nice but no you ignored it so if you want to push or promote something then you have to give to the forum first until then I will edit your posts

Used a 16" plastic yesterday for the first time. Achieved a good finish,very fine scratches though!

 

[Danny]

Yeah stainless never get as sharp as mild steel or carbon... carbon trowels are very good finish trowles.

I would be worried about the plastic leaving scratches... I am hoping to get mine soon will... wont use it for months but I can dream of using it
