A flexible putty knife for spreading and scraping
This is a durable plastic putty knife. It flexes, so it works material into the surface instead of dragging across it, and the plastic edge won’t gouge soft old wood the way a metal blade can.
Use it to spread, scrape, and apply a wide range of materials, like putties, adhesives, and spackling. It’s often used to apply WoodEpox.
