Title: Good bit of kit
Review: Does what it should, good bit of kit. The problem I found with it was using against older style bathroom panelling which was flexible so it wasn’t to effective, but against tiles or something more firm it’s a fantastic tool for smoothing sealant.

Title: Dissappointed
Review: Really wanted it to work…but it doesn’t. Well it does, but the smallest side 6mm is sill too large to give the bead size I aspire to and the 8mm side isn’t large enough to cover wide gaps. I reverted back to the plastic finishing strips.

Title: Messy and better tools out there
Review: Thought this would be the answer to getting a good clean bead across my kitchen countertop but it was very messy. I got a kink in the middle of my bead which I then had to clean the block to try and resmooth – not possible. Went back to using a lollipop stick and have a good clean bead.
