Step-by-Step: Mastering Home Decorating with a Deluxe Paint Roller Set
Step 1: Preparing Your Space
Before jumping into painting, preparation is key. Clear the room of any furniture, or at least cover it with dust sheets to protect against paint spills. This includes using dust sheets for floors, which remain one of the best protections against paint splatter.
Step 2: Choosing the Right Tools
When selecting tools, consider what surface you'll be painting. For walls, larger 9-inch rollers are ideal, while 4-inch mini rollers work well for trims and detailed areas. For those seeking further efficiency, the Raulde set expands this versatility with various roller sizes and brushes to meet all demands.

Step 3: Applying Masking Tape
Masking tape should firm up along edges where two different colored surfaces meet. Raulde's paint-repellent technology ensures this is a breeze, reducing the chance of paint spilling over. This technique is crucial for precision painting on trims and corners.
Step 4: Mixing and Measuring Paint
Utilise the paint mixers provided in your deluxe set to stir your paint thoroughly. This is important for ensuring the consistency of the paint and a uniform finish on your walls.
Step 5: Rolling Technique
Pros often start by cutting in around the edges of the room using a brush before moving on to rollers. Once done, the magic begins with the paint rollers—apply the roller to the wall using a "W" or "M" technique, filling in sections systematically. This method of paint application ensures even coverage without leaving streaks or roller marks.
Step 6: Finishing Touches
Once rolling is complete and the paint is dry, carefully remove the masking tape to reveal sharp, clean edges. Any necessary touch-ups can be addressed using the smaller brushes in the set.
FAQs
What’s the best roller for emulsion paint?
For emulsion paint, a medium-pile roller, such as those offered in the Raulde deluxe set, is ideal as it holds plenty of paint and offers a neat finish. The 9-inch roller would be suitable for large surfaces, while the 4-inch models work well for areas requiring more precision.
Do plastic dust sheets protect from paint spills?
Yes, plastic dust sheets are excellent for protecting surfaces from paint splatter and spills. They're water-resistant and can confine spills compared to traditional fabric sheets.
