You need to pay attention to the lengths of paint rollers bristles, because roller brushes with different bristles length will give different effects. If you want to paint the texture effect, then you can choose long-haired paint rollers, because they will paint some small textures on the wall, which has a sense of unevenness. The brushing effect of short-haired paint rollers is smooth, without unevenness. The brushing effect of medium wool paint rollers is somewhere in between. So you can choose the paint rollers that best suit your bristle length according to the effect you want to paint.

Painting tools are made of different materials. paint rollers made of different materials have different characteristics and advantages. Knowing the differences in materials can make your painting work better.

If your paint is latex, acrylic or oil-based paint, paint rollers made of nylon or polyester are more suitable for applying these paints. The advantage of painting tools made of wool is that it can absorb more paint, allowing you to finish your paint job faster. paint rollers made of polyester fiber, compared with other materials, are stronger and wear-resistant and will not be quickly worn out.

If your wall has wall sockets, wires, switches, it is also possible to use a wide wall brush to paint, you only need to pay attention to avoid these obstacles when painting. If the area you paint is smaller and there are more obstacles, I suggest you use paint rollers with a smaller width, which will allow you to paint better and faster. You don't need to worry about not being able to paint on a high surface. All brush rollers are ergonomically designed, and telescopic rods can be installed to make your painting work very easy.
