This long pile roller sleeve is crafted from a super-soft, absorbent fabric for quickly delivering a fine finish onto uneven walls and ceilings. It offers a super-soft fabric for an ultra-fine finish, is low splatter, shed resistant, and easy to clean. Use on uneven walls and ceilings. Wash before first use. The roller fabric is heat-fused to the core to prevent unwind and ensure maximum lifetime, even when used with the harshest of solvents. The core diameter of this sleeve is 38mm, so it should be fitted onto a matching Axus Decor or other suitably sized roller frame. FEATURES: An Axus Decor Pro-Finish Roller is an excellent choice for emulsion on smooth walls and ceilings. Microfibre is the softest roller fabric and will have a smooth finish. Unlike all other materials, it loads paint inside the fibers, giving ultra-smooth release, requiring less work, and increasing your painting efficiency. USEFUL TO KNOW: Depending on the texture, heavy-duty or polyamide materials are not for rough surfaces as the fabric is too soft. Microfibre takes longer to dry than other fabrics, so allow plenty of time to dry before using it again. EASY TO CARE & USE: Unless it is marketed as lint-free, wash the roller in cold or tepid water before its first use to remove any loose fibers that would otherwise transfer onto the surface when painting. Remove excess water, stand the roller on its end, and allow it to dry thoroughly (ideally overnight) before using. PREMIUM QUALITY: The roller fabric is heat-fused to the core to prevent unwinding and ensure maximum lifetime, even when used with the harshest solvents. The core diameter of this sleeve is 15"/380mm; Medium Pile. So, it should be fitted onto a Double Arm Frame. MEDIUM PILE: It is suitable for smooth and semi-smooth surfaces such as plaster, drywall, and ceilings (including light to medium textured applications such as Artex). It is ideal for emulsion color changes similar to the previous one and more substantial such as light to dark or vice-versa.
