Frequently Asked Question
A wide range of roller covers is available, including microfiber, mohair, lambskin, poly/wool blends, and woven or looped options. Specialty options such as lint-free covers, adhesive applicators, carpet stipplers, and industrial-grade rollers are designed for specific applications.
Smooth surfaces work best with short-nap or lint-free covers. Semi-smooth surfaces benefit from medium-nap microfiber or woven rollers. Rough surfaces require longer nap covers, such as lambskin or poly/wool, for better paint reach.
Short naps (¼”–⅜”) are ideal for smooth walls. Medium naps (½”–¾”) suit lightly textured surfaces. Longer naps (¾”–1” or more) are best for rough or uneven surfaces to ensure proper coverage.
Professional roller covers are designed for maximum paint pickup, smooth application, and lint-free performance, helping deliver a higher-quality finish with better consistency and efficiency.
Yes, but it’s generally better to use separate covers to avoid mixing materials and to maintain a consistent finish.
