Comments on How to Choose the Right Paint Roller

A power roller is an affordable and smart choice. Just what I expected, being able to control the exact amount of paint on my roller and never having to reload meant a more complete job with less time. The pump is also a stand for a one gallon paint can. It's a little heavier to hold onto but worth the effort. Clean up is simple. With set up and clean up, it's best for jobs that use two or more gallons of paint.

Tired of cleaning the paint tray after each use? Line the paint tray with aluminum foil all over. Discard the foil when finished! Simple. To clean the roller after use, squeeze out the remaining paint with a blunt knife a few times. It will take out most of the paint.

If you take a break from painting (even for a day or two), use the plastic sleeves that protect your newspaper when it is delivered to cover the roller. Tie with a twist tie and you can pick up where you left off and not have to wash the roller every day.

If you're taking a break when painting, place roller sleeves and brushes in large Ziplock bags. Place the name of the product on the bags. Slide a roller pan into a plastic grocery bag to prevent paint from drying out if you are delayed in returning to your task.

Use a paint stick that sucks up the paint in the handle out of the bucket and makes less splatter. When painting the ceiling, no need for a ladder and the going up and down that uses up a lot of energy. The splatter guard works great! Fast on walls, too!
