A disposable hand tool for easily smoothing or spreading of material made for the filling of gaps or the sealing of two adjacent surfaces. The tool consists of a depressor made of plastic or cut wood surround on one end by cellular foam forming the smoothing head, while the depressor extends beyond the foam to form the handle. The depressor provides necessary reinforcement and stability to the foam, in order that when the surface of the cellular foam makes contact with the caulking material, enough rigidity is provided to transfer pressure as applied variably by the user with the handle to smooth the caulking material, but the pliability of the foam accommodates and flexes to variances in the surfaces being joined or filled by the caulking material. When finished using, the tool can be disposed of, or in some instances cleaned using appropriate process for removal of excess material being smoothed, and reused.
