Craftool® Pro Detail Rougher

After struggling with uneven glue adhesion on smooth leather scraps, this rougher finally gave me consistent, strong bonds every time. The textured head works through the surface evenly without scratching or damaging the leather. Really solid feel in the hand too.

The large surface area is perfect for prepping smooth leather in one pass, and the roughening texture really grabs the adhesive without tearing the hide. I glued a slippery piece of suede this morning and it’s held solid through a few bends already.

Finally I’ve got a good grip when gluing those smooth leather pieces — the rougher head gets into the texture just right without tearing the surface. This little tool makes prepping for adhesive feel almost effortless.
