Marshalltown Sponge Float - 12" x 5"

The Marshalltown 12" × 5" Sponge Float is a contractor‑grade finishing tool designed for smoothing textured coatings, working sand surfaces, and preparing plaster, stucco, and masonry finishes. Engineered for durability and performance, this float features a 1⅛" thick sponge pad bonded to a sturdy backing plate, making it ideal for leveling and finishing a wide range of surfaces.

This float is part of Marshalltown’s high‑quality lineup of Foam & Sponge Floats, known for their long wear and ability to produce professional results on sand‑finish surfaces. The thicker sponge pad provides more absorption and softer finishing action than foam float models, making it especially effective for blending textures, smoothing plaster coats, or working decorative finishes that require a softer touch. The 12" × 5" size strikes the perfect balance between coverage and control, allowing finishers to efficiently work both large and detailed areas.

Marshalltown’s contractor‑grade construction ensures the float stays rigid, resists breakdown, and performs consistently even under heavy daily use.
