Product description of the manufacturer
The PRECISE LINES silicone remover tool set impresses in the test with its extensive equipment: With a total of eleven parts, it covers a wide range of requirements for removing and smoothing silicone joints.
The ease of use wasparticularly positive – the tools fit ergonomically in the hand and are comfortable to work with, even when used for long periods. Another advantage is the versatility, as the set is suitable for a wide range of joint types and areas of application.
However, the test also revealed critical potential for improvement. For example, increased blade wear was observed with particularly stubborn or old silicone joints. In addition, some of the plastic parts proved to be somewhat susceptible to breakage under heavy pressure.
Advantages
- Versatile in use
- Extensive equipment
- Simple and ergonomic handling
Disadvantages
- Increased wear of the blades
- Partially breakable plastic parts
