Garant - 12" Claw Molding Puller - 04GCMP12
The Garant GCMP12 is a 12 in. forged steel molding puller built to lift trim, baseboard and small moldings off a wall without gouging the material behind it. Both ends are beveled and polished, and a slot integrated into the blade grabs small nails so the bar doubles as a compact nail puller.
The compact claw slides under an anchored, broken or headless nail with a small striking surface, which is what lets it start under a flush-set nail head that a standard pry bar can't get under.
Features and Common Uses
- 12 in. forged and tempered steel bar for pulling molding, baseboard and small nails

- Pulling small nails and brads left behind after trim removal
- Careful demolition where the material behind the molding needs to stay undamaged

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this damage the drywall or trim I'm removing?
The beveled, polished ends are shaped to reduce marring, but any pry tool can dent a soft surface under enough leverage – work slowly and use a scrap block behind the bar on finished surfaces you're keeping.
Can it pull larger framing nails?
It's built for molding and small trim nails. For larger framing nails or heavier demolition, a full-size flat bar or cat's paw is the better tool.
