This Hamilton Perfection 9" long pile roller sleeve is designed for achieving a perfect finish on smooth and semi-smooth surfaces. Its microfibre blend fabric ensures excellent paint pick-up, even coverage, and a smooth finish with minimal splatter, making it easy to clean. Ideal for decorators who demand the best, this sleeve is particularly suited for use on Artex or other heavily patterned surfaces. The durable polyamide material provides a fast and even finish on rougher surfaces, boasting superb paint pick-up. The fabric is thermobonded to the core, preventing unwinding even when wet. This 9" x 1.75" sleeve fits standard 9" cage roller frames and is compatible with emulsion paints, as well as solvent and water-based masonry paints. When using a new roller sleeve for the first time, it's recommended to dampen your hand and run it over the fabric to remove loose lint. After use, clean by removing excess paint and rinsing with water, then drying upright.
