Don't like the type with the wooden handle, they never seem to take enough grout off cleanly. Always use the yellow ones with the dark blue polyurethane base but they're getting harder to come by. Local tile shop got some in for the first time in months, and when I was buying mine, the owner asked what was so good with them, as they'd only put them out that morning and everyone who was in had bought one. :lol:

Use the Ragni find it ok just like to know how do you hold your float I put my fingers thru the handle and grip the edge find you get more pressure and leverage than holding the handle.in the 70s used to make your own a strip of rubber nailed in two bits of skirting then along came the first float which was a Marshalltown.
