We refer to surfaces like this to make the selection of the most suitable roller sleeve easier. Below are some examples to help you decide:
Smooth surfaces include those recently plastered (an dry) plasterboard or lining paper. Use a short pile sleeve for these surfaces.
Semi-smooth surfaces can be woodchip or lightly patterned, or previously painted. Use a medium pile sleeve for these surfaces – this is the most common pile.
Rough surfaces are usually artex or more heavily patterned. Use a long pile sleeve for these surfaces.
There are also Extra-rough surfaces which can include period building walls, or exposed brickwork. You’ll need an extra-long pile rollers for these.
A masonry sleeve is designed perfectly for brickwork, pebbledash and concrete – perfect for outdoors, and indoor surfaces such as cellar walls.
It may be that there was some loose lint/fabric before you started using it – this is normal. When using a brand new roller (not applicable for foam) always dampen your hand first and run it over the sleeve to remove and lose bits that are simply there from the manufacturing process.
Also just double-check you are using the correct roller for the paint you are using.
This will depend on the roller frame / pole that you’re using. Both will be either screw-fit or push-fit – we have extension poles that are suitable for both. You can usually tell quite easily by looking at the frame handle.
