While highly durable, these materials benefit from careful handling to extend their lifespan. If an edge becomes damaged during use, it can often be restored by gently rubbing it with a wet-and-dry sandpaper block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe midget trowel shoe fittings are designed for a snug fit, providing excellent tactile feedback during use. To prevent difficulty when inserting the handle, it’s recommended that the handle be removed and the shoe fitting be cleaned after each use. Applying a water- or silicone-based lubricant can also help ease the handling of the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen not in use, always keep the supplied edge protectors fitted to the trowel. Avoid storing the tool in high-temperature environments such as near radiators, on window sills, or on car dashboards, as heat can cause warping. Moderate warping can often be corrected by flexing the trowel along its length (toe to heel) in both directions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"wallsfloorsceilings.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55776671170945,"sku":"Refina0111","price":31.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0902\/6378\/1761\/files\/228172-1.jpg?v=1780919664","url":"https:\/\/wallsfloorsceilings.com\/products\/refina-plaziflex-foam-backed-1mm-flexiback-black-skimming-trowel-12","provider":"wallsfloorsceilings.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
