The Axus Silk Touch 9" Finishing Roller, with a short pile, is designed for use with 9" wide 38mm (1.5") diameter roller frames. The rollers feature fibres finer than silk, ensuring minimal texture on the painted surface. The high density of the fabric's fibres allows for a large paint pick-up, providing fast surface coverage with a single load. The fabric is meticulously woven, reducing fibre loss, and the rollers have low spatter. The heat-fused core prevents fabric unwind, and the durable polypropylene core offers even, sturdy support for optimal roller-to-surface contact. Recommended for smooth and lightly textured walls and ceilings, it is suitable for water-based and oil-based coatings< varnishes and woodstain.
