The tool is designed for multiple finishing tasks such as scraping, filling, edge cleaning and detail smoothing. Its slim, angled blade makes it ideal for correcting imperfections and working in narrow or difficult-to-reach areas where wider knives cannot operate effectively.
Yes. The rifflard’s compact size and flexible movement make it simple for beginners to control. It helps achieve clean edges, smooth repairs and precise detailing without requiring advanced plastering skills. It is especially helpful for small touch-ups and delicate corrections.
It works well with fillers, patching compounds, joint compound and finish plaster. The tool is designed to spread material smoothly in small areas, making it useful for crack filling, edge refinements and minor repairs before painting or skimming larger surfaces.
No. This tool is intended for detail work and localized repairs, not large-area skimming. For big surfaces like entire walls or ceilings, wider plaster knives or trowels should be used for efficiency and maintaining flat, consistent finishes.
The narrow, angled design allows access to corners, edges and confined spaces where normal tools cannot fit. It provides improved control when removing excess compound or applying filler in precision areas that require carefully directed movements.
Yes. One of its main functions is cleaning and smoothing edges, trims and plasterboard joints. It removes surplus compound cleanly, helping achieve sharp, professional edges that blend seamlessly into surrounding surfaces without visible build-up.
Clean the blade immediately after use to prevent dried compound from sticking. Dry it thoroughly to avoid corrosion and store it in a safe place. Regular cleaning maintains flexibility and prevents marks when performing delicate finishing work.
Yes, the blade can be used gently to scrape away loose or dried compound. However, excessive force may damage the wall surface. For heavy removal, a stronger scraper is recommended, but the rifflard is perfect for light corrective scraping.
The ergonomic handle provides a steady, comfortable grip, allowing longer use without hand fatigue. Its lightweight design makes it suitable for repetitive detail work, small repairs and touch-ups throughout a project.
It is widely used in drywall finishing, repair work, edge correction, crack filling and detailed smoothing tasks. Professionals and DIY users rely on it for precise adjustments and perfecting corners, edges and tight areas before final finishing.
