۵-inch black handle Chinese spatula
A spatula is a tool that consists of a thin and smooth blade, and a handle along it. A spatula is used for plastering and spreading materials on surfaces. This device is produced in different sizes according to the width of the blade. Its handle is made of wood or plastic and its blade is made of plastic, metal, steel, etc. Plastic blades are disposable. The main function of this device is to shape the putty and spread it on the desired surfaces. Its shape is suitable for reaching hard-to-reach spots such as corners of walls, doors, windows, and cabinets. Spatula is used to remove and scratch dried putty and paint stains on doors and windows. Spatulas are made in different types according to size, blade material, and shape, each of which has its use.
Some spatulas have flexible blades and are suitable for spreading soft materials. They are suitable tools for plastering the corners of windows and spreading any other soft material evenly. The thickness of these blades is about half a millimeter.
Another type of spatula with harder blades that are nearly one millimeter thick, have great flexibility and are more suitable for scraping surfaces and removing stains from dried materials.
Spatulas with plastic blades are also made, which do not have the quality of metal spatulas. The only advantage of this type of trowel is its low price, and it is suitable for tasks that must be thrown away after use, such as working with chemicals.
