The Big Blue Float is a very popular piece of concrete Equipment, light weight and easy to store/easy to transport when not in use makes it the ideal tool for the job in hand. simple and easy to use. Also known as an ‘Easy Float’ the Big Blue is a professional quality concrete flat-work finishing trowel.

The Big Blues’ Blue Carbon blade gives greater flexibility to the trowel blade, providing a superior super smooth finish to the concrete surface.

The screeding process will leave slight ripples on the concrete surface. For some applications this is acceptable as the texture can
increase the effective slip resistance on slopes and ramps.
Screeding with vibration also causes a less desirable effect. hence the intensity of vibration at the surface can cause a separation of the
aggregate and cement. The heavier particles including the sand sink below the surface leaving a thin layer of brittle cement on the
surface. hence this is often referred to as laitance or fat
When the concrete is still in a plastic state the surface can be remixed and surface irregularities smoothed out using a float.
This process is quick and easy if the right tools are used. A wide float blade is pushed and pulled across the slab using a long handle
so the operator can work the slab from the sides.
