Abstract: A corner finishing tool having a hard planar spreading member, a receiver portion, and a tensioning assembly. The spreading member has upper and lower surfaces, each surface having front, rear, left and right edges, wherein the spreading member can be flexed so as to move from an un-flexed state to a flexed state by moving the left and right edges upward and towards each other. The receiver portion is sized and dimensioned to receive a finishing compound dispenser and includes a through hole extending between the upper and lower surfaces of the spreading member. The tensioning assembly provide the capability of increasing and decreasing the amount of force required to flex the left and right edges towards each other.
