Whether you are plastering a wall or putting up drywall, one of the most common frustrations found is trying to do the corners, especially when they are hard to reach. Smooth, sharp and correctly plastered corners set up the finish for the entire wall, so it is crucial to get it right and use the right tools to achieve this. A corner trowel is worth its weight in gold when it comes to  these tricky to tackle areas of plastering, and is a tool every respectable plasterer should have in his or her kit. We've been taking a closer look at the benefits of corner trowels.
