Review title: Usable, but not necessary
Product review: This is nothing but a one inch wide piece of bent metal with a hooked tab in the end. From all appearances this tool should work like a charm to separate the overlapped latches on vinyl siding, but for some reason it just doesn't. It's difficult to tell if you have the tool positively engaged on the strip, and when you think that you do, and give it a downward pull, it slips off of the latch. I found it faster and easier to remove the siding using a long handled screwdriver inserted between the overlaps and prying downward to disengage the latch. There may be some tight spots where this tool might come in handy, but I never found any real use for it on my project.
