Works as expected, no problems I see

Well, it's cheap, easy to use (first time spatula) and seems pretty solid. I wanted to patch big nail holes so this is definitely good for that. Maybe it's not so good for other applications? I like the fact that there is a visual indication when it dries. It's easy to get small pink spots that aren't fully dry yet, just wait for them to fully dry and set.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Hard to say

Literally broke in half within 2 minutes of applying wood putty

I have used this to smooth out some wood beams with uneven wood texture from decades of wear. I wasn't trying to gouge out a knot or anything, I just applied a smooth coat horizontally to the board. shot in 2 minutes. Ace Hardware plastic spatulas, which are actually called "disposables", have lasted me for years and have never broken.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Trade-in

Useless junk suitable for painting, wall treatment and accessories

This is a waste of money. Your nail will fit the putty better, I'm not kidding. They're made out of overly flexible, porous plastic, like something cut out of the side of a Tupperware container, but without a smooth surface. The putty follows it right out of the hole or cuts into the hole and you can't clean the edges. A piece of cardboard with foil is better than this. Don't waste money.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Save time and money and get them.

After looking at all the splicing knives in various hardware stores and wondering how they can be so expensive, I decided on this plastic set. I immediately bought a second pack and these were my tools to re-texture several rooms in the house. We had a few other tools for the final look, but all repairs were done with it. They are easy to clean and I wasn't worried about them breaking for the price.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Can't remember

Wide range of sizes, durable construction

These are simple, well-made plastic knives/scrapers. The big one was perfect when an old can of paint leaked in the closet. The shelf was covered in a jelly-like material made from some sort of ruined latex paint. We scraped it with a broad knife and it did an amazing job. It paid off that day. I've used them to smooth putty, fill holes in wood, and just scrape off sticky stuff. They have enough flexibility so they are not fragile, but still strong. The red color is not as bright as in theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not all will fit
