Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
A tapered spatula is the right choice for tooling a bead so it transitions cleanly into the substrate, which is critical at flashings where a sharp ridge would trap water. Use the 3" size for joints and the 5" for wider transitions. Keep the blade damp or wiped clean while tooling to avoid dragging cured sealant.
Metal tool blades can develop sharp burrs with wear; wear gloves when cleaning and keep blades away from skin.
Choose your size and order the Newborn Tapered Standard Spatula for smooth sealant finishes.
