Spatula is an ordinary tool used to scrape off wallpaper and used in ceramics to clean up after working wet or dry materials, clays, powders and liquids. The two main types are metal and plastic; the metal ones have sharp corners and are slightly pliable and the plastic ones are used in the kitchen for cleaning out bowls. Both types are very useful.
