smoother
More even-surfaced
Smoother is the comparative form of smooth—something with fewer bumps, less friction, or greater ease than another.
A smoother ride jostles less.
A smoother transition happens with less disruption.
A smoother is also a tool or device that makes surfaces even: a floor smoother, a wrinkle smoother.
In casual speech, someone skilled at charm might be called a smoother, though this use is uncommon.
