Rasps & Scrapers

Plastering rasps and scrapers are tools used to shape and smooth the surface of plaster. They are similar to traditional rasps and scrapers, but they are specifically designed for use with plaster and can come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and tooth patterns to meet the needs of plastering tasks. Plastering rasps are coarse, hand-held files with serrated teeth that have rough surfaces. By scraping away small shavings or particles, they shape and smooth wet or dry plaster surfaces. Plastering scrapers are hand-held flat tools with sharp, straight edges that are used to scrape away excess plaster or smooth surfaces. Depending on the task, they may have curved or straight edges. Plastering rasps and scrapers are frequently used in the construction and plastering industries to remove excess plaster and create smooth, precise surfaces. It is critical to use the correct type of rasp or scraper for the plaster material being worked with, as well as to follow all safety precautions when using these tools.
