Let's hear your recommendations for interior trim panel tools. I have been holding off on buying a set for a long time, and today I really needed them.

Thank you for the suggestions. I may have to look into the BOJO.

I should probably be more specific in what I need. I am more interested in plastic pry bars. I have to other style poppers, but occasionally I have to pop panels off and use metal putty knives which risk scratching.

Here's another one for you to consider, freudianfloyd.

There are few tools that I've found more useful for those unexpected prying applications than the Boulderfly Sheet Metal Skin Wedge.

Its tip is as thin as a sheet of paper, with all edges rounded and smoothed just the right amount to prevent scarring, and it's stiffer than you would expect. I can't flex it at ALL. I have two of 'em, one in basement shop and one in garage. I reach for them more often than my plastic pry bars now.

I have this quality "Made in Japan" set from KTC, You can also just purchase the individual ones that you would need, see the part numbers from the back of the package that I show below. I don't remember where I purchased it but here is a link to one of the vendors:

Just buy some Bojo or Snap-on and be done with it. Great tools regardless of what name is on them. The Snap-on seal/O-ring SGSR104AR removal tools are great for trim use as well. I use them on most every job.

Darn you guys! Now I'm going to have to replace my HF trim tools with Bojo!

Edit: I wasn't sure if they were that much better than the blue trim tools I got from HF, but what the heck...ended up getting some stuff off of Ebay. Got some scrapers too!

I had the HF and bought Bojo to compare. The Bojo is much stiffer as it uses a superior plastic or nylon. The difference really surprised me.

I have some Ares 71135 push pin pliers, a Lisle 35260 Plastic Fastener Remover, and cheap set of glass reinforced plastic trim tools. I find I use the first two more on exterior trim, and the plastic ones mostly on interior trim. But, I do use them all everywhere.

I have that Lisle 35260, among others, comes in handy.

I must say I saw your post and have seen the tool here in GJ mentioned before. However, I kind of shrugged it off as I really did not understand the tool, nor the name, it just didn't make sense to me. What I am trying to say is, I just could not picture how it would be used until, I saw a video where the tool was used and I was amazed on how easily and convenient it worked. I am sold and placed an order, I can't wait until I get it. Thank You for the enlightenment and helping me spend my money :bounce:

I ordered a bunch of Bojo stuff on ebay from seller "laserocity1" and I was really impressed. I received them in 2 days and everything is really nice. I haven't used them yet but they seem really sturdy compared to the China stuff I have.
