Plastic Blade Information
On this page, we've compiled videos demonstrating our various plastic scrapers. Our demonstrator Chris uses both hands and pliers to show the properties of the plastic scrapers. If you have any questions about the blades, we strongly encourage you to contact us so we can address them. The diagrams below also provide a good summary of the properties. Each color symbolizes the color of the plastic scraper, and the height of the bar shows how much more of that property the blade has compared to the other colors.
Guide
Below you can see our guide showing which surfaces are best for each blade. To get the most out of the blades, you need to use them at the right times. We believe this will make you much happier with Scraperite.
The catalog will open in a new tab.
GPO Blade
In the demonstration, we see that the Orange scraper blade is soft and flexible. Chris in the video tries to break it but has a very tough time as the blade is so stretchable. This means the blade will adapt more to the surface and bend when it encounters harder resistance.
Acrylic Plastic
In the demonstration, we see that the Yellow scraper blade is hard and rigid. Chris in the video breaks it easily as it's not flexible. This means the blade is perfect for flat and hard surfaces like metals, floors, and tables.
Polycarbonate Blade
In the demonstration, we see that the Blue scraper blade is, compared to the Orange and Yellow blade, right between hardness and softness. This blade is designed for situations where you don't need an overly soft or hard material. In the video, we see that Chris doesn't need to strain too much to break the plastic, but it doesn't give in as easily as the Yellow blade. This means the blade works perfectly on bathtubs, fiberglass, uneven surfaces, and softer metals.
Industrial Plastic Blade
In the demonstration, we see that the Black plastic blade is very hard but also slightly flexible. This means the blade can handle tough surfaces even in industries that need to take extra effort to scrape away stubborn stains. The blade's properties also mean it maintains its edge much longer and thus has a longer lifespan.
