ABSTRACT:
The surface finisher is an attachment for an angle grinder or other handheld prime mover that precludes the need to finish uncured concrete or other viscous, semi-fluid materials by hand. The surface finisher is a disk having a series of radially disposed blades extending from the plane of the disk, with the blades flexing over the surface to which they are applied to smooth the surface during operation. The disk and blades may be formed as a single, integral component, or may alternatively be formed as a flat, planar disk with a series of removable blades. Either embodiment may be formed of a variety of metal and/or plastic materials. The finishing blades bear against the surface and even out surface irregularities and put a slick, finished surface to the uncured surface, or may be used to form a pattern or texture in the uncured surface by using a contoured blade.
