Troubleshooting
Bristles are shedding from the brush.
Ensure you are using the 'No-Loss' technology brushes. For any shedding, try gently rinsing the brush and reshaping the bristles. Avoid aggressive scrubbing.
Uneven paint coverage from the roller.
Ensure the roller sleeve is adequately loaded with paint and that you are using consistent, overlapping strokes. Check if the roller sleeve is appropriate for the paint type and surface texture.
Paint is splattering excessively.
Ensure the roller sleeve is not overloaded with paint. Apply paint with moderate pressure and avoid jerky movements. Clean any dried paint drips from the roller frame.
Roller tray is unstable.
Ensure the tray is placed on a flat, stable surface. The tray is designed for standard roller sizes; ensure no excessive force is applied that could unseat it.
