UniBond Sealant Cutter & Smoother

Very good product for the job

Does the job. Had to remove silicone from a slate shower tray and found a blade too damaging. This did what what was needed without marking the tray 👌🏼

Being woman of certain age this job would not be one I would normally tackle but had someone only a few months previous renew the sealant on shower but it failed within months and I thought I could not do a worse job so had a go. Watched all the YouTube videos and got the basics so ordered this tool and the accompanying paste by same brand and took a deep breath...... and began. This tool worked so far as you can see in the pics, but I am a perfectionist hence the little pliers to really get every last bit of old sealant out (think this is where previous attempt had gone wrong). Took a good while but oh so satisfying if the sealant came away in a nice long strip. I would not have been able to get job done without this handy little tool. I think this tool will come in hand for a variety of other uses too as it is plastic but strong

Easy to use and helped me to remove the old silicone. However the tool is not particularly robust and the edge is a lot less sharp after using it on three showers. I'm not sure how long it will last. I will probably invest in a tool with a metal edge, but I guess the downside of that is the metal may scratch plastic shower trays. Swings and roundabouts I suppose.

Works well

My whole house has parts that now need resealing, bathrooms, the kitchen etc. I picked this up based on the reviews and well, why use a Stanley Knife or some other multipurpose tool when you can have a tool for every single job you can think of! The Good * The build quality feels nice and solid, theres a little flex in the stick and on the tip of the horn point on the top ridge which i wouldnt want to drag too hard but nothing especially worrying. * There are a features to this, theres the snow plough type end for getting stuck right into existing sealant, theres a horn on the top which you can use to drag sealant out of tricky crevices and then there is the sealant smoother on the other side. * I used this as per the picture to take out some old sealant on the edge of my bath which had cracked, most likely under my not inconsiderable weight stomping in and out of the tub. * Its nice and easy to get into gaps, i didnt use a liquid sealant remover for this little job i just used the tool. I like the sharp horn, it was pretty useful in getting into the gap between the tile and bath. The Could be better * As said i didnt use any liquid sealant remover for this job based on the size of it, if i were doing all round the bath or when i come to other jobs ill probably use the tool in tandem with a sealant remover just to speed things up. * I havent resealed yet, im hoping to drag that into next weeks job list... so i havent used the smoothing edge. * Whilst there is nothing with this little tool at all, as stated in other reviews you could i imagine do as good a job with a sharp stanley type knife. Overall i would recommend this, its a specialist little tool, a good price point and seems to be very durable. Why have one tool when you can have twenty! If you dont like removing sealant and want to make life a little easier then i recommend picking one up. Four Stars.

Brilliant did the job absolutely easily Thank You

Very disappointing. Firstly, - it could not remover any of the silicone from either the bath or tiles. Because it is plastic, it lost it's sharp edge quickly, albeit it could not do the job it was designed for. It could not cut into the silicone, it could not scrape of the silicone and it got blunt. Silicone is soft/ flexible hence why I don't think this tool worked. I am very surprised 'UniBond' would put their name to this ineffective item - I have used many of their product with great satisfaction. Stick to the traditional stanley - it's hard work but it gets the job done.. I didn't bother to use the other end because if that too is useless, I will have sealant all over the show- and I would need to remove that too.

It is not recommended

The plastic scraper went blunt after only a few hard scrapes. Not worth the price.
