Axus Décor Pro-Finish Roller - Long Pile - 15 Inch
The Axus Decor Blue Pro Finish Long Pile Roller Sleeve is made from a super-soft, absorbent fabric...The Axus Decor Blue Pro Finish Long Pile Roller Sleeve is made from a super-soft, absorbent fabric for quickly delivering a fine finish onto uneven walls and ceilings. For achieving an ultra-fine finish on smooth or nearly smooth walls and ceilings, we recommend the medium pile roller sleeve. A super-soft fabric for an ultra-fine finish, low splatter, shed resistant, and easy to clean. Use on uneven walls and ceilings. Wash before first use. The roller fabric is heat-fused to the core to prevent unwind and ensure maximum lifetime, even when used with the harshest of solvents. The core diameter of this sleeve is 38mm, so it should be fitted onto a matching Axus Decor or other suitably sized roller frame. This roller is suitable for semi-rough and rough surfaces such as brick, breeze block, cement, and render where the longer pile is effective at getting into the surface texture, as well as interior walls and ceilings (including medium to heavily textured plasters such as Artex).
