If a poor craftsman blames their tools, what does a good craftsman do? Looking after your taping and finishing tools is a good way to keep your work looking its best while also getting it done in a timely manner. Caring for your tools includes proper use, safe storage, frequent cleaning, and repair for damaged or worn parts.
How do you know if your tools are ready for repair? Here’s a couple things to look out for:
- Look for signs of wear
Your tools may need repair if notice your this about your tools’ performance:
- Tools aren’t performing efficiently
- Tools aren’t performing smoothly
- You’re noticing more mistakes after use of regular technique
- You’re getting lower quality results than normal
- Look for these signs of damage

- Misalignments
- Loose parts
