Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup for the Marshalltown Gauging Trowel is straightforward. It requires no assembly and is ready to use. Compatibility is primarily with quick-setting plasters; however, it's recommended to test with other materials before a large project. Proper care is essential for maintaining the trowel's performance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Immediately after use, clean the blade with a damp cloth to remove any plaster residue. Avoid allowing plaster to dry on the blade.
- Storage: Store the trowel in a dry place to prevent rust.
- Blade Care: Inspect the blade for any damage before each use. Sharpen if necessary, using a sharpening stone.
