Product Identity
The Hyde Tools 05520 is a flexible putty knife with a two-inch wide blade made entirely from black polypropylene. It is designed for applying and smoothing filler compounds on walls and similar surfaces.
Suitability
This tool suits decorators and DIY users who need a lightweight, non-metallic blade for spreading putty or scraping soft materials. It is not intended for buyers who need a rigid blade for heavy scraping or a metal edge for cleaning tough residues.
Sustained Use Behaviour
The polypropylene construction resists corrosion and will not damage delicate surfaces during extended sessions. The reinforced flat handle provides a consistent grip that reduces hand fatigue when working across large areas over long periods.

Questions about this item
What surface preparation tools should I have ready before using the 2 in polypropylene blade?
Have the surface clean and dry, plus a compatible filler or compound and a mixing container so the flexible blade can spread material smoothly.
Can I keep using my existing metal putty knives alongside this polypropylene model?
Yes, the non-sparking polypropylene blade works safely next to metal knives and will not damage surfaces the way a steel edge might.
How do I confirm the knife is performing correctly after I start spreading compound?
The blade should flex evenly across its 2 in width, leave a uniform layer without gouging, and the reinforced flat handle should stay secure in your grip.
