The Fit For The Job Emulsion Roller Set is a four piece kit with two sleeves rather than one, and that second sleeve is the reason to buy it. Doing a room in two colours means one sleeve for each, so you are not stood at the sink washing a roller out halfway through the job.

The sleeves are medium pile, which is the right depth for interior walls. Deep enough to hold a decent amount of emulsion and cope with a bit of texture, shallow enough to leave a flat finish rather than a stippled one.

What’s in the Set

• Two 9″ medium pile roller sleeves
• Roller frame with push fit handle
• Paint tray

How to Use the Fit For The Job Emulsion Roller Set

1. Rinse both sleeves in cool water before first use and let them dry. This sheds loose fibres that would otherwise end up on your wall.
2. Slide a sleeve onto the frame and check it is seated.
3. Fit an extension pole to the handle if you are doing a ceiling.
4. Pour paint into the tray, keeping below the ribbed section.
5. Load the sleeve and roll it on the ribbed area until it is evenly coated.
6. Work in sections, finishing each with light strokes in one direction.
7. Cut in edges and corners with a brush first.

Why Two Sleeves Helps

Most rooms end up with a different colour on the ceiling to the walls, or a feature wall. With one sleeve that means a proper wash out and a wait for it to dry before you carry on, and a damp roller thins the next colour. Two sleeves removes the problem entirely. It also means a spare if the first one starts shedding.

Cleaning

Wash the sleeves out in warm water while the emulsion is still wet, working your fingers into the pile until the water runs clear. Squeeze out the excess, reshape, and stand them on end to dry. The tray washes out in warm water too and will last for years.

Sizes Available

Supplied as a 9″ x 1.5″ four piece set with two sleeves. Fit For The Job also make a three piece with one sleeve and a five piece with three, plus a long pile version for rough exterior masonry.

Safety & Restrictions

• Keep out of reach of children
