Hamilton Prestige Roller Sleeves - 9" Medium Pile - 6 Pack

You will need a standard 9-inch roller frame to fit these 9-inch roller sleeves.

These medium pile sleeves are generally suitable for most paint types, including some gloss finishes on smooth surfaces. For very high-gloss finishes or difficult-to-apply paints, a short pile roller might offer a smoother finish.

With proper cleaning and care after each use, these roller sleeves can be reused multiple times, making them economical for ongoing projects.

These are medium pile sleeves, best suited for smooth to semi-smooth surfaces. For heavily textured walls, a longer pile roller would be more appropriate to adequately fill the texture.

For water-based paints, rinse thoroughly under running water until clear and allow to air dry. For solvent-based paints, use an appropriate solvent cleaner, rinse, and dry.

The thermobonded construction ensures the roller sleeve stays securely attached to the core and prevents it from unwinding during painting, even with vigorous use or different paint types.

These sleeves are designed to minimize fiber shedding, contributing to a cleaner finish and less post-painting cleanup. Some minimal shedding may occur on first use.

Ensure the roller sleeve is evenly saturated with paint, not overloaded or dry in sections. Check that you are using consistent pressure and rolling technique.

Reduce the amount of paint loaded onto the roller, or try applying paint with lighter pressure. Ensure the roller sleeve is securely fitted to the frame.

While designed to minimize shedding, ensure the roller sleeve is clean and free from debris before use. Some initial light shedding may occur, which can be brushed off once dry. Ensure the paint is not too thin, which can sometimes lift fibers.

This is rare due to the thermobonded construction. If it occurs, ensure the sleeve is the correct size for the frame and that you are not applying excessive force in a way that stresses the seam.
