Stumbled across these while wandering round Axminsters' shop and bought it on spec. along with the smaller version.
What a pair of cracking little applicators. They do exactly what they say on the tin. Go out and buy a couple today !

I suppose it also depends on the surface; if it's rough, like OSB, then a brush is better than a blade which would be better on a flat little absorbent surface.

I agree Bob, but the one my good lady has has its bristles extruded from a silicon block with a handle that pushes into that block, it wouldn’t be difficult to cut the block in half & have 2, 20mm brushes which would be a better size & a bigger bargain

OK Doug thanks. All I have to do now is to psych myself up to actually setting foot in one of their stores

I can’t help you there Bob other than offer to get the good lady to buy an extra one when she’s next there & post it you. For some reason she likes the place it can’t be the meatballs
