Scratchers & Scarifiers

Shop our range of render scratchers and scarifiers for preparing, keying and finishing render surfaces. Essential tools for professional plasterers and renderers, scratchers and scarifiers help create the correct surface texture between render coats and can also be used to achieve the characteristic finish of monocouche and through-coloured render.

Render scratchers are commonly used once monocouche render has reached the correct stage of curing. Scratching back the surface helps remove excess material, expose the aggregate and create an even, consistent textured finish across the rendered wall.

Scarifiers and scratching tools can also be used to create a mechanical key in suitable base coats and undercoats, helping prepare the surface for subsequent render layers.

Ideal for professional renderers, plasterers and external wall insulation (EWI) installers, our range includes specialist hand tools for different rendering applications and finishes.
