Purdy Bent Pole Scraper for Ceilings and High Walls

The Purdy Bent Pole Scraper is a decorating prep tool with an angled blade fitted to a long handle, built for scraping loose paint, flaking distemper, wallpaper and general debris from ceilings, coving and other high or hard to reach areas. The bend in the blade lets it sit flat against a ceiling or upper wall while you work from the floor, so you can prep large overhead areas quickly without spending the whole job on a ladder.

The blade runs the full length of the head and is made from rust resistant stainless steel, so it stays sharp and corrosion free even when used on damp or previously water damaged ceilings. A rubberised ergonomic grip keeps the tool comfortable to hold during longer scraping sessions, and a nail set hammerhead at the end of the handle lets you tap down proud nails, tacks or picture hooks as you go.

The scraper head has a quick connect fitting, so it attaches directly to a Purdy Power Lock extension pole for reaching ceilings, stairwells and other high walls safely from ground level.

How to Use

• Clear loose debris and dust sheets from the work area before you start.
• Hold the scraper at a low angle and draw the blade across the ceiling or wall in short, controlled strokes to lift loose paint, wallpaper or distemper.
• For overhead ceilings and stairwells, click the head onto a Purdy Power Lock extension pole using the quick connect fitting so you can work from the floor.
• Use the hammerhead end to tap down any nails or hooks that are catching the blade before you continue scraping.
• Wipe the blade clean after use and store it dry to help the stainless steel edge stay sharp for longer.

FAQs

Can I use an extension pole with this scraper?
Yes. The head has a quick connect fitting that is compatible with Purdy Power Lock extension poles, so you can scrape ceilings and high walls safely from the floor instead of a ladder.

What is the hammerhead end for?
The nail set hammerhead lets you tap down protruding nails, tacks or picture hooks before you scrape over them, so you do not need to carry a separate hammer.

Will the blade rust if I use it on a damp ceiling?
No. The full length blade is made from rust resistant stainless steel, so it holds up well in damp conditions such as bathroom ceilings or water stained areas.
