Hamilton Roller Sleeve - 4" Extra-Long Pile

This roller sleeve is specifically designed for rough and extra-rough surfaces such as masonry, brickwork, render, and exterior walls where its extra-long pile can effectively penetrate textures.

Yes, it is compatible with a variety of paints, including emulsions, solvent-based paints, and water-based masonry paints.

For water-based paints, rinse thoroughly with clean water. For solvent-based paints, use an appropriate solvent followed by water. Squeeze out excess liquid and allow to air dry completely.

It is designed to fit all standard 4" midi roller frames.

While it can be used, its extra-long pile is optimized for textured surfaces. For very smooth finishes, a roller sleeve with a shorter pile might provide a more ideal result.

Ensure you do not overload the roller with paint and use smooth, consistent application strokes. The sleeve's design inherently minimizes spatter compared to some other types.

The thermo-bonded core ensures that the fabric is securely attached to the roller's center, preventing it from unwinding during use, even when wet or exposed to solvents, thus ensuring durability and consistent performance.

Ensure the roller sleeve is fully saturated with paint but not overloaded. Check that the surface is clean and free from debris. For very rough surfaces, apply more pressure to ensure the pile reaches into all crevices.

Reduce the amount of paint loaded onto the roller. Apply paint with smoother, more controlled strokes. Ensure the roller is not being spun too quickly against the surface.

Check if the sleeve is new; new sleeves can sometimes shed a small amount of fiber on the first use. Clean the sleeve before use if it appears dirty. Ensure the fabric is not damaged or frayed.

Ensure the sleeve is correctly fitted onto the roller frame. Avoid excessive force or twisting motions when applying paint. If the issue persists, the sleeve may be damaged and require replacement.
