LEVEL5 32 inch skimmmmes | Precisie 0,3 mm Duits roestvrijstalen mesinzetstuk (vervangbaar), ergonomisch aluminium bladprofiel | 4-932

Worked amazing well and save lot's of time. Fast cleanup and make perfect quick patch

Because I hate butt joints in ceiling dry wall I have for years created a 1/8" recess between the joists where I can bend/pull the ends of the boards up and then skim flat with the rest of the ceiling. Since I have only ever had a trowel/knife with a 12" blade I resorted years ago to taking the handle off a 30" hand saw and clamping the blade between two pieces of wood. This I used as a wide flattening trowel. Then I came across this tool, and have just finished three ceilings each with a butt join in the centre. it is PERFECT! Easy to grip, light and produced a smooth coat that needed hardly any sanding. And, as the stainless blade slides out for cleaning, easy to clean. So good I just bought the 12" version too for small patching and repairs!Recommended.

Works great but takes some trial and error to get the technique correctly. Works great for applying skim coats to wall and ceiling. It is a bit pricey but solid construction.

It takes a little getting used to, but the results are amazing

As a contractor I like to dabble hands on and having never skim coated a wall myself, although I am experienced in drywall finishing, I’ve never actually skimmed a wall. This tool actually made me re-consider replacing my personal drywall tools with all level 5 gear. Afterwards. Easy to use, precise, light weight and well made.
