The OLFA X-Design Scraper  has a very comfortable, anti-slip grip, allowing you to use maximum pressure to scrape. The elastomeric grip takes a lot of the pressure off your hand, resulting in greatly reduced strain over long periods of use.  The body is also re-enforced with fibreglass, for ultimate durability and resistance to everyday materials and solvents. he XSR-300 has several unique features: Firstly, you can change the blade without the need for any screwdriver or other tools.  Simply unlock the wheel on the front by turning it anti-clockwise with your thumb, and then hold button on the back to release the spring while you replace the blade.  Once you have changed the blade, tighten the wheel again.  This double blade lock (wheel + spring) means that the blade is held securely and tightly in place while scraping at all times.  No loose blades, no scraped rubbish clogging up the blade channel, no frustration. Secondly, the scraper has a hammerable end, making it suitable for removal of even the most stubborn substrates including floor tiles, adhesive, wall tiles, coatings, carpets, linoleum and practically any other hard to remove surface. When the scraper is not in use it has an easy clip-on blade cover to protect your fingers when hunting through your tool kit. This tool will last. The scraper comes equipped with a heavy duty 0.8mm thick blade making tough work easier! For stripping wallpaper, we recommend using the XSR-300 with a BSF blade - a 50mm long flexible blade that really gets under wallpaper to take it off quickly.  It is not as sharp, so is less prone to damaging the wall or ceiling.

Owatrol Oil Paint Conditioner  is a p aint conditioner and rust inhibitor Can be used alone or added to oil based paints, primers, varnishes and stains Used alone it provides a tough, flexible finish, driving out moisture and air Used alone: coverage 18m2/litre Owatrol Oil is versatile, highly penetrating air drying oil that can be used alone or added to paint. Used alone as a rust inhibitor it provides a tough, flexible finish, driving out excess moisture and air; displacing it from rusted metal, so stopping rust dead in its tracks. Used alone on porous wood surfaces it will saturate and protect the wood from damage caused by moisture and prevent paint from peeling. When added as a paint conditioner to any oil or alkyd based coatings it will give increased wet edge time, improved flow and greater adhesion. Unlike damaging thinners, it will maintain the inherent quality of the paint without affecting its appearance or drying times, allowing you to achieve a more professional finish. Using Owatrol Oil as a rust inhibitor Owatrol Oil penetrates through the rusted metal to the sound metal below, isolating it and protecting it from further rusting. Directly use on rusted surfaced – the penetrating oil drives out moisture and air and stabilises the metal to protect it from future damage. Using Owatrol Oil to aid adhesion A bonding film is left on all surfaces Owatrol Oil is used on which maintains the natural look of the surface but allows enhanced adhesion, making it perfect as a foundation for primers or finishing coats. It gives excellent adhesion including on galvanised steel, aluminium, zinc, wood and more. Paint can be applied directly to firm rust when Owatrol Oil is used and is heat resistant up to +175°C. Using Owatrol Oil as a paint conditioner Mix Owatrol Oil into oil-based paints as a paint conditioner to get several great benefits. Firstly, it gives the paint rust inhibiting properties and helps prevent rust on painted surfaces (even when rust is already present). Secondly, it also improves the flow and workability of the paint. This means that you can maintain the ‘wet edge’ for longer, reducing brush and roller marks. Finally, it gives the paint a better viscosity allowing painting work to be carried out in a more extreme cold, hot and windy conditions. Unlike damaging paint thinners it does all this without altering the inherent qualities or the finish of the paint. Please note that if you are looking for a product to give this effect but for water-based paints then please use  Floetrol  instead as it is designed for use in any water-based paint whereas Owatrol Oil is for use in oil-based paints. Using Owatrol Oil for wood impregnation When used on wood surfaces Owatrol Oil saturates the wood and protects it from damage caused by moisture. It also helps to prevent paint from peeling and protects metal parts such as hinges and latches from corrosion. Ideal Uses for Owatrol Oil Priming galvanised surfaces with no need for weathering or pickling Preventing further damage in heavily rusted surfaces Improving paint flow when working in cold environments Preventing peeling paint on wood surfaces Protecting metal part on wood surfaces like gates and window frames Assuring better adhesion of finishes
