The R.S.T. Notched Trowel is designed for DIY enthusiasts and tiling professionals needing to apply adhesive evenly to walls and floors before tile installation. Its primary benefit is ensuring consistent adhesive coverage for a secure tile bond. A potential drawback is its fixed notch size, which may not suit all tile types or adhesive applications.

This trowel is ideal for spreading common tile adhesives like thin-set mortar and tile mastic. The square notches are well-suited for general-purpose tiling.
While it can be used, the square notches are quite pronounced and may not be ideal for very small mosaic tiles. For such applications, a finer notch trowel might provide better results. Always consult your adhesive's specifications.
Clean the trowel immediately after use by scraping off excess adhesive and washing it thoroughly with water. Dry it completely to prevent rust.
The trowel measures 280 x 115mm, which is equivalent to 11 x 4 1/2 inches.
The handle is designed as a soft-touch grip for comfort and is not typically designed for user replacement.
It can be used, but epoxy adhesives often require specific application tools. Ensure you check the epoxy manufacturer's recommendations for the correct trowel type and notch size.
Ensure the trowel notches are clean and free from dried adhesive. Check that the adhesive itself is mixed to the correct consistency as per the manufacturer's instructions.
Ensure you are holding the soft-touch handle correctly. Take short breaks during extended use to rest your hand.
Ensure the trowel is thoroughly dried after washing and stored in a dry environment. Light rust can often be removed with a fine-grit sandpaper or steel wool, followed by drying and a light oiling for storage.
Setup: This trowel requires no assembly. It is ready for use straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: The R.S.T. Notched Trowel is compatible with most common tile adhesives, including thin-set mortar and tile mastic. The square notch size is generally suitable for medium to large format tiles (e.g., 6"x6" and larger). For very small tiles or specific adhesive manufacturers' recommendations, always check the adhesive packaging.
