Paint roller techniques

daniel_t1409 · 2021-01-04 11:25:01

What is the best way to roll paint on a wall? i.e rolling in W pattern, rolling up and down, etc. I want to get a good finish on the walls that doesn't look awful :D

W pattern will work fine. Don't try to stretch out the paint. When you have done a few meters, go back to the start and backroll. Start at the top, come right the way down, when you get to the bottom, start up again, moving about 2/3 the width of the roller across . When you get to the top, come straight down again and so on until you get to the edge where you left off. This is done without any paint on the roller
