In
1985, Zinsser introduced a tool that answered the need for a better
way to perforate waterproof wallcoverings. This wallcovering tool, called
PAPERTIGER, was as revolutionary an advance in its field as DIF®
was in remover solutions. With PAPERTIGER, scoring became faster, easier
and safer for both worker and wall.
The latest models - Multi-Directional PAPERTIGER - are even faster and
easier to use than the original one-direction models. They let the user
score an entire room in minutes.
A
new "Tiger Claws" cutting module of unique design is responsible
for this improvement. One model has a single cutting module; the other,
preferred by professionals, has three.
PAPERTIGER
is easy to use. Just make circular movements across or up and down the
wall to score the wallcovering. The PAPERTIGER penetrates through the
wallcovering without damaging the wall itself. Other perforating devices
use spikes which easily gouge drywall or plaster and cause unnecessary
repairs to be made before proceeding with the wallcovering job. The
PAPERTIGER follows the contour of the wall including hollow areas or
textured wallcovering surfaces. The cutter assembly self-aligns to both
the wall and the direction of travel, thereby allowing the tool to be
moved in any direction the user desires.
PAPERTIGER won't rust, corrode, or wear out. The hardened steel teeth
remains sharp for many rooms of wallpaper removal. Replacement cutting
assemblies are available, but are usually not necessary.
