Concrete resurfacer
The Meadow-Patch T2 is a two-component concrete resurfacer for repairing damaged concrete slabs. The product will repair minor deterioration such as spalling or scaling. After mixing, the product becomes a creamy, easy-to-apply mixture that can be poured or sprayed onto the defective concrete area. After application, the product can be finished to a smooth, even surface. It dries to a light gray color, closely matching the original concrete appearance. The three easy application steps consist of cleaning and priming the surface to be repaired; mixing and applying the product; and then finishing the surface with a broom or trowel. After application, the product can be modified with color or used in stenciled overlays.

Pipe and tubing cutter
The RC-2375 ratcheting plastic pipe and tubing cutter enables fast, easy and accurate cutting of up to 2⅜-inch O.D. capacity. The blade design and ratcheting mechanism reduce the amount of force needed to cut through plastic pipe and tubing. Durable aluminum construction and ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip for precise and easy cuts of plastic pipe and tubing such as PVC and CPVC, PEX, polyethylene, polybutylene and rubber hose. The blade can be changed in seconds without any tools and lasts up to 2,000 cuts. The quick-change pin has no clips or screws to lose. The cutter conveniently fits in a pocket and is operated with one hand. An easy-turn thumb latch holds the cutter closed and protects the blade when the cutter is not in use. Ergonomic grips built into the bottom handle are spaced at ½-inch increments to provide a quick pipe-measuring scale.
