ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a device for finishing joints between tegular elements applied to a surface. The device consists of a support and at least one head the support being suitable for gripping by the hand and the head being specially shaped to enable the jointing material between the adjacent elements to be finished formed. The head is shaped so that when the device is applied to the adjoining edges of adjacent tegular elements it makes limited contact with the adjoining edges of the elements and has a constantly diminishing transverse dimension in at least one direction along the joint. The head together with the jointing material fully occupies the space between the elements between the regions of contact and if the device is moved along the joint in the direction of the diminishing dimension of the head a smooth and regular surface contour of the jointing material between the edges of the elements is achieved. It is disclosed that the head may be separable from the support or may be integral with it and that the head at its operative end may take the various different forms. Also disclosed is the method of using the device described hereinbefore.
