How to Choose the Right Roller
Finding the Best Paint Rollers for Walls in the UK
Selecting the best paint roller can be a daunting task, especially given the wide array of options available in the UK market. The RAULDE Paint Roller Set of 21 - Deluxe stands out, offering superior quality with NO LEAKAGES thanks to its wired caged frames. These frames are not only ergonomic but also compatible with roller covers, helping prevent the dreaded paint spillage.
Understanding Different Roller Sizes and Fabrics
The size and fabric of a roller play a crucial role in the finish of your paint job. A 9-inch roller is ideal for larger walls and ceilings, while a 4-inch roller is more suited for trim work and tight spaces. Fabrics like microfiber are excellent for low-sheen coatings, while wool blends are great for high-gloss paints. The RAULDE kit’s diversity ensures you have all bases covered.

How to Use a Paint Roller for a Bubble-Free Finish
A bubble-free finish is imperative for a professional-grade outcome. For more detailed instructions, you can check our blog on How to Use a Paint Roller for a Bubble-Free Finish in the UK.
Remember to:
- Load the Roller Evenly: Pour paint into the tray, and roll the paint roller back and forth. The wired caged frames in our kit facilitate this process.
- Roll in an 'M' or 'W' Pattern: This helps distribute the paint evenly and reduce the risk of streaks or bubbles.
- Don't Overload the Roller: Overloading can lead to drips and uneven textures.
The Importance of Quality Masking
PAINT REPELLENT TECHNOLOGY is a game-changer when detailing edges and corners. RAULDE’s masking tape helps prevent paint bleed, ensuring sharp line finishes without bubbles or gaps.
Preparing Your Space
How to Use Dust Sheets While Decorating
Dust sheets are invaluable when safeguarding your floors and furniture. Opt for durable and reusable dust sheets—like those included in our RAULDE kit. Lay them flat, and tape down the edges to ensure secure coverage. For more on this topic, explore our article on How to Achieve a Smooth Finish with RAULDE Paint Rollers.
Prepping Surfaces
- Clean the Walls: Remove dust and debris for optimal adhesion.
- Patch Holes and Sand: Fill any imperfections with putty and smoothen it out for an even canvas.
- Use Primer: Especially on new drywall or when covering darker shades.
FAQs
What’s the Best Roller for Emulsion Paint?
For emulsion paints, we recommend medium pile rollers such as those in the RAULDE Paint Roller Set. They work well across a variety of surfaces and provide excellent coverage.
Do Plastic Dust Sheets Protect from Paint Spills?
Yes, but a higher-quality fabric dust sheet, like those offered by RAULDE, provides better absorption for any incidental drips or spills.
