FAQs

Do I need to wash these rollers before the first use?

No, the lint-free fabric means no pile shedding and no washing out is required before use.

What type of paint are these rollers best for?

They are ideal for emulsion paints on smooth and semi-smooth surfaces, and also suitable for satin paints.

Can I use these rollers for oil-based paints?

While they might work for some oil-based satin finishes, they are primarily designed for water-based emulsion and satin paints. For thick oil-based paints, a different roller type might be more suitable.

What is the benefit of Fused Fibre Technology?

This technology ensures the synthetic fibres recover their shape during use and after washing, leading to a consistently smooth finish and increased durability.

What size roller frame do I need?

You will need a standard 4-inch (100mm) mini roller frame to fit these roller sleeves.

How long do these rollers typically last?

With proper care and cleaning, the Fused Fibre Technology allows these rollers to be washed and reused multiple times, offering a longer lifespan than standard rollers.

Are these rollers suitable for textured walls?

The 12mm medium pile is best suited for smooth and semi-smooth surfaces. For heavily textured surfaces, a roller with a longer pile might be more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Roller sheds fibers

Ensure you are using the roller for its intended paint types (emulsion/satin) and surfaces (smooth/semi-smooth). Check if the roller has been damaged. For new rollers, a very light initial wash may help.

Uneven paint application

Ensure the roller is fully loaded with paint. Apply even pressure and use a consistent rolling motion. Check for any dried paint on the roller that might be causing skips.

Roller loses shape after washing

Avoid harsh wringing or aggressive cleaning. Gently squeeze out water and reshape the roller while wet. Allow to air dry fully without compression.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides an impressively smooth finish without shedding lint.
  • Reusable after washing due to shape-recovering fibres.
  • Versatile for both emulsion and satin paints on various surfaces.
  • Compact size is excellent for detailed or hard-to-reach areas.
  • The 9-piece pack offers good value and convenience.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for smooth to semi-smooth surfaces.
  • The 12mm pile may not be suitable for heavily textured surfaces.
  • Not ideal for oil-based paints, which may require different roller types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These rollers come ready to use. Simply fit the 4-inch roller onto a compatible mini roller frame (not included).

Compatibility:

  • Surfaces: Best suited for smooth and semi-smooth surfaces.
  • Paints: Ideal for emulsion and satin paints.
  • Frames: Requires a standard 4-inch (100mm) mini roller frame.

Care:

  1. Immediately after use, scrape off excess paint using a paint scuttle comb or putty knife.
  2. Wash the roller thoroughly under warm running water. You can use a roller cleaner or mild detergent if necessary.
  3. Squeeze out excess water gently. Avoid harsh wringing.
  4. Reshape the roller if needed.
  5. Allow the roller to air dry completely before storing. Store in a clean, dry place.
