FAQs

Is the product safe to use?

Yes, it is formulated with low VOC components, is non-hazardous, non-flammable, and virtually odourless, making it safe for use in most environments when handled correctly.

How does it condition the roller sleeve?

The cleaner contains a built-in conditioning agent that penetrates the roller sleeve fibers, restoring them to a soft and supple texture, prolonging the roller's life.

How long does the cleaning process typically take?

For standard emulsion paints, cleaning can take as little as 5 minutes per roller. Stubborn or oil-based paints may require a second application, increasing the time.

What should I do if I get the cleaner in my eyes?

Rinse eyes immediately with plenty of clean water and seek medical advice.

Troubleshooting

Roller not completely clean after first application

Apply more cleaner, work it in more thoroughly, and rinse. For stubborn residues, a second application may be required.

Cleaner has an unexpected odor

While virtually odorless, individual sensitivities may vary. Ensure you are in a well-ventilated area. If the odor is strong and unusual, the product may have been contaminated; discontinue use.

Roller sleeve feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure you have used the cleaner to its full potential, as the conditioning agent works to restore suppleness. Allow the roller to air dry completely; stiffness can sometimes be temporary.
