Thalco™ Rubber Squeegee - 6" and 12" Resin Spreaders
The Thalco™ Rubber Squeegee is the undisputed USA industry standard for surfboard lamination. Renowned for its durability and consistent performance, this high-quality tool is designed specifically for the rigorous demands of a professional glassing bay. Unlike plastic spreaders, the rubber construction provides a unique "spring" and tactile feedback that allows the laminator to feel the resin as it saturates the fiberglass cloth.
Proudly Made in the USA, these squeegees are engineered to distribute resin evenly across the board’s surface while effectively "pulling" excess resin out of the weave to ensure a lightweight, high-strength lamination. The 6-inch model is the perfect all-around tool for shortboards and mid-lengths, offering superior maneuverability around rails and fin boxes. The 12-inch model is the professional choice for longboards and large surface areas, allowing for wider, more efficient passes and a flatter resin distribution.
Designed for longevity, Thalco™ squeegees are resistant to the chemicals found in both polyester and epoxy resins. With proper care, these tools can be cleaned with acetone and reused for hundreds of boards, making them a sustainable and cost-effective staple for any production shop or backyard shaper.
Key Features:
- Industry Standard: The most trusted rubber squeegee in American surfboard manufacturing.
- Made in the USA: Industrial-grade rubber construction for professional-level durability.
- Two Essential Sizes: Available in 6-inch for precision work and 12-inch for large surface area lamination.
- Superior Feedback: The natural flex of the rubber allows for better control of resin "saturation" versus "dry spots."
- Reusable: Solvent-resistant material cleans up easily with acetone for long-term use.
Pro Tip: To maintain the perfect "edge" on your Thalco squeegee, store it flat or hanging. If the edge becomes rounded over time, you can "true" it up by lightly dragging it across a piece of 120-grit sandpaper on a flat surface to restore its sharp, resin-moving profile.
