Overview:

The Silverline 180mm x 320mm Large Lightweight Polyurethane Plastering Float (282375) is a sturdy, one-piece float designed for rubbing up and levelling plaster, cement and other building materials. Manufactured from high quality rigid polyurethane, it’s lightweight in use while remaining hardwearing for regular site and DIY plastering tasks. The patterned, non-absorbent face helps you work the surface without the float soaking up moisture, supporting consistent results. For added versatility, some users push a plasterboard nail through the float so it protrudes slightly, allowing it to scratch up setting plaster and create extra key for a finishing coat.
