[Arti]

The boy wonder asked if I could fix his s*p*r*lex and i said.........erm. Al ask the forum ninjas if it's fixable

Bin it am afraid you cant repair any of the superteds regardless of which make they are. Only supposed to last for 12 month anyway! How long as he had it ??

Keep hold of it, I have one pretty much the same, I used mine for taping and jointing feathers joins out a treat.
Mt sell them curved like that about 35 quid a pop.

Id send it back as its bent the wrong way its a manufacturer issue and he should get a free new one. I know @Plasterers1StopShop do that regard any issues?? Ive had 2 refinas like your lads and my first one went all bent after about 12 month as thegauge of stainless is much thinner than normal hence the "flex" thrs why they dont last long but 4 months is pretty s**t and id be sending it back with proof of purchase if it were me ??

Saw the Refina super flex the other day for the first time, was going to buy it to give it a whirl, that is until I picked it up.....
Felt awfully heavy & clumsy. Don't think I'll ever be giving it a try.
By contrast, I saw the spat with pole, and that felt beautiful, very light and felt easily manoeuvrable, obviously the negative against the Eze is the interchangeable blade, but that apart it felt nice.

 

[BigK]

Back to op, would the bend matter that much with a flex? As soon as you put it on the wall it'll be flat?

looks like hes using the wrong size glasses case, causing the twisting in the resting position

I'd hate to say that I think it's from rough usage or bad care whilst not in use, I really would hate to,say that

Doesnt work like that mate. Just leaves lines and no matter how many times you go over it it looks shite

Refina spats are flimsy and the eze much better but admitedly heavier and with interchangable blades its the best as far as im concerned

Lol.
I picked up the 16 inch and was just surprised how heavy it was, or maybe the balance more so?
Whatever it was it didn't feel nice at all

May well be too flimsy when in use Marshy, I don't know, just felt nice and light. I'd probably bend the pole lol

The refina s*p*r*lex is a better trowel than the nela s*p*r*lex.
