This roller sleeve is ideal for rougher, heavily-patterned surfaces like artex, and other textured walls or ceilings.

What paints can I use with this roller sleeve?

The roller sleeve is suitable for use with emulsion, as well as solvent-based and water-based eggshell paints.

How do I clean the roller sleeve?

Remove excess paint, then wash the sleeve thoroughly with warm water (for water-based paints) or the appropriate solvent (for solvent-based paints). Rinse until the water runs clear and let it dry completely.

What roller frame should I use with this sleeve?

How long will the roller sleeve last?

The lifespan of the roller sleeve depends on usage and care. Following the cleaning instructions will help prolong its life.

Can I use this roller sleeve on smooth surfaces?

While it can be used on smoother surfaces, it's designed specifically for rougher surfaces. Using it on smoother surfaces might result in a slightly textured finish.

How do I prevent the roller from shedding fibers?

Before use, remove any loose fibers by taping the sleeve with painter's tape or running your hand over it. This helps to prevent shedding during painting.

Troubleshooting

Uneven paint coverage or streaks.

Ensure the roller is evenly loaded with paint and apply consistent pressure. Overlap each stroke slightly.

Roller sleeve unwinding.

Check that the sleeve is properly secured to the roller frame. Ensure you are not applying too much pressure while painting.

Difficulty cleaning the roller sleeve.

Clean immediately after use. Use the appropriate cleaning solvent or warm water, depending on the paint type. Consider a roller cleaner tool for efficient cleaning.
