Description
This 120 mm paint spatula from Instar has a flexible stainless steel blade, 0.7 mm thick, on a profiled blue plastic handle. It is made for finishing and painting work: filling gaps with skim or gypsum, smoothing filler and scraping off old paint. It sits with the skimming blades and spatulas at Renders World.
What the 120 mm Paint Spatula Does
The 120 mm paint spatula lays on, spreads and smooths small amounts of filler and gypsum, and gets a surface ready for the next coat.
- Flexible 0.7 mm steel. The thin working part of the spatula spreads thin layers evenly for a smooth, level surface.
- Stainless steel. The spatula resists corrosion and is easy to keep clean; Instar marks it rust-free (Rost frei).
- Profiled handle. Blue polypropylene shaped for a secure grip and comfort in longer work.
- Moulded joint. The blade is joined to the handle by injection moulding.
Where to Use It
- Filling. Cracks, holes and joints filled with skim or gypsum and smoothed level, so the surface is ready for paint.
- Smoothing. The 120 mm paint spatula spreads and smooths filler before you paint.
- Scraping. Taking off old paint coats and dirt to prepare the surface.

Instar asks you to wear protective clothing, gloves and eye protection: the spatula can slip from the hand, its edge can cut and it can catch fire in an open flame. The same spatula comes in narrower widths, such as the Instar 100 mm spatula and the Instar 80 mm spatula.
