Rolling walls and ceilings? This is the ideal combination. Even weight distribution as the frame supports the roller both ends, compared to a traditional roller frame.

New roller sleeve? Wrap tape around it first and remove immediately. This simple method removes any loose lint - therefore sticks to the tape instead of the wall.

Here is a tip. When picking a secondary shade to go with your main colour, for example a feature wall, or woodwork. You are best looking above, below, left or right directly of the colour you’ve picked. They are almost certainly going go to go together perfectly.

Cross hatching is a technique used when painting a ceiling to roll on the first coat in one direction (north-south) & the next goes perpendicular to that (east-west). This can reduce roller marks, improves blending & helps to distribute the paint more uniformly.

‘Padding down’ is essential and what will really make a big difference to achieving a high quality finish. I use Goodflex pads to gently rub down the paint before I apply the final top coat. Ensure to clean thoroughly before painting. Dust is the devil.

Cables are unsightly let’s face it. But I like to seal them to take your eye off. Here I’ve used OB1 as my sealant. Apply and wipe access with a damp cloth.
