Questions & Answers

Could this be used to put grout on the walls of a shower?

My question is! Does this appear to be a brand new tile wall or is it a patch job to fix previous grout problems?
If the grout is brand new you should be using rubber grout floats if it has been patched then perhaps a putty knife would be okay not metal because it will scratch the tile. For a quick guide on how to grout shower tile or fix bad grout, Google it! With a better understanding of the best route, you'll be able to make a more informed decision. I wish you the best of luck

Selected User Reviews For Warner 1-1/4" DIY Stiff Putty Knife, 180

The knife's blade is prone to rust, but it is still a good deal
4/5

You can read the review for more Earlier this year, I bought the 6-pack For only $2 you can get an inch knife. It is projected that 53 people will be alive in February It's a much better deal than what the local big box hardware store offers. With its low price, it is a very good value and it works well for applying mud to drywall. I only have one complaint as soon as I used the knife for the third time, it started to rust. I still have an intact drywall joint tape mud at this point, since the rusting is only around the handle. Photos can be seen in the photo. I don't need to be concerned about the problem as long as the rust does not spread down to the blade's working surfaces. The knife will then be used as a paint scraper rather than a drywall mud applicator if it gets worse.

It accomplishes what it is intended to
5/5

The handle of this metal bar is made of plastic. I have nothing fancy to say. You might need a stiff, uniform, square-shaped object like I did to get your job done -inches on each corner A little more Whenever you're going to fill some cracks with grout, use a quarter-inch piece of shiny metal in a plastic handle. You'll get the best results with this cheap option. I can see myself using it for another couple of years, but when it gets coated with hardened bondo and i begin using it to pry open paint cans and eventually I have to throw it away, I'm going to feel like I blew my money.

That's a hell of a deal
5/5

In the course of a kitchen remodel I will be doing a lot of drywall work, and I didn't want to spend $15 on an expensive one given how little I will If you are looking for a good deal, this is a no-brainer. This is a great product if you don't need something to use often but if you're like me and use it occasionally, you should definitely invest more. Metal is somewhat thin, but it is thick enough to accomplish what you want. A fantastic item to add to your collection.

It's just what the doctor ordered! This is a great product
5/5

Getting this to help with projects around the house, I used it for the first time last week, and I love it, it helped remove the paint off the cabinet doors I'm redoing, removing the paint off beautiful wooden cabinets with paint removal, and finishing the project with this tool! I will definitely get another one as a back up (should I lose my first one or if my husband takes it away).

The little spreader is very nice
5/5

This little tool is awesome! The piece is very strong and durable (withstanding pressure), it deflects just enough and returns to its original position (without being bent), it cleans If I did a lot of remodeling, I would buy the other sizes. Small holes and repairs could be easily patched with this size patch. It is unlikely I will need another, but I would buy it again if I should lose it.

The product is very sturdy, sturdy, and works great
5/5

Excellent little putty knife. I prefer the less expensive ones as they do just as well, are easier to clean, and I can toss them when they get too difficult to deal with. It does not bend at all and that's why I prefer putty knives with a bit of a bend, but this is advertised as stiff and.

It works fine
5/5

Has held up well for over a year now, so I think that is good news! I also love how easily it cleans. As I print letters on letterpress, I use it to mix inks.

I like it a lot
5/5

If you're an occasional user, these are excellent. I think they would probably not be a good choice for a general contractor since they are very lightweight and flimsy. Despite this, I find them to be very useful for my occasional usage.
