Product reviewsYATO YT-5261 Spatula - Red

Brilliant product

I purchased these as an aid to decorating my bathroom ,I have never used anything like this before and would have had to resort to applying silicon and using a cloth with turps on to get an half decent job done .This little product was amazing and I can't say enough to praise the brilliant result that I've achieved with them ,it has allowed me to achieve a professional finish with absolutely no experience and saved time because it's so quick and easy .Well worth the money and I would recommend them without question,thanks for making what would have been a real pain so easy .Read full review...

Wearing out

I've only done about 18 metres of 5mm width lines but the tool is worn out, after only a few metres I started finding bits of red 'fluff' in my cream silicon and found it was coming from the Yato tool itself.
The perfect 90deg shape of the tool is a poor idea, it needs to be less so the tool can be angled into the job, having to ensure it's held tight into a corner possibly puts more wear into an already soft easily worn tool, if it was less than 90deg you can then angle it into the corner for your own perfect fit.
For the price it's ok but not an ideal tool.Read full review...

Low cost but good

Low cost version of this grout and sealant finishing tool. It works well at a fraction of the cost of proprietary brands, only thing missing is the 'bridge' attachment used to keep grout lines straight when crossing tile edge junctions. That said, for sealant, this is absolutely fine and recommended.Read full review...

Looks like a machine finish round that worktop.

The title was a quote from a customer I had fitted a kitchen for. Great spreaders, better than a finger. I use silicone every day and these little Buddies just put the perfect finish on all I do without mess or fuss. Haven't used all the profiles yet but the ones I have used have astounded me. I save on over use of silicone and blue kitchen roll to clean up my past mess. There is a profile for every job I would do and more besides. Great little tools well worth the cost. They can turn any first time user of silicone into a master finisher.Read full review...

Cannot wait to use these...

The items arrived quickly and were well packaged. I watched a video which impressed me to buy the tools. I always get into a mess using sealants, so these items should help me, and provide a more professional finish, fingers crossed.Read full review...

Silicon Sealant Spreader & Finishing Tool...

Bought this kit for a forthcoming sanitary sealant replacement job in our bathroom as I've never used such a kit in the past..only my fingers...so thought I'd give this kit a try after watching a how to on U tube...I've given it 4* initially as I've not yet used it..but at this stage I'm happy with "my investment".Read full review...

cleaner hands

for many years I ended up in such a mess with more caulking on me than where I wanted it.
Its design is simple, a bit like the spanner you got when you bought a new bike, fitted every nut/bolt.
Very well designed and did a good job keeping me clean into the bargainRead full review...

Too flexible

Well tooled and sharp edged this would be a worthy competitor for the market leader, but it’s slightly too thin and flexible to do a great job. Sorry 5/10

Stiffen the mix and add a couple of mm to the thickness and you would have a great product Read full review...
