Whether you need a fine finish on furniture or fast coverage on a large wall, there is a suitable option in our range to match the task.
Types of Covers Available
Microfiber options are among the most popular for both trade and home use. They offer excellent paint absorption, minimal spatter, and a smooth, even finish on walls and ceilings.
Microfiber fabric works well with water-based emulsions, primers, and eggshell paints, and can be washed and reused multiple times.
Woven fabric and dacron pile provide greater paint capacity and are particularly well suited to difficult colours or wallboard sealers.
These products offer reliable pickup and release across semi-smooth and textured surfaces, making them a solid choice for exterior walls and heavier coatings.
Foam and flocked foam paint roller covers are designed for gloss, varnish, enamel, and other high-sheen finishes. They deliver a very smooth, near spray-like result with minimal texture, ideal for doors, furniture, and detailed woodwork.
Mini and jumbo options, typically 4 to 6.5 inches, are built for tighter areas, cutting in around edges, or applying paint to narrow surfaces.
They pair with compact roller frames and are available in both microfiber and foam fabrics to suit different finishes.
Larger widths — 9, 12, 14, and 18 inches — cover more surface area with each pass, making them the preferred choice for walls, ceilings, and larger exterior projects. Wider formats reduce painting time significantly on open surfaces.
Table: Size Guide
Size plays an important role in both speed and control during painting.
Smaller formats are better for precision and tight spaces, while wider options help cover large areas faster and more efficiently.

Choosing the correct width allows you to balance speed and accuracy.
For most standard projects, a medium size offers the best control, while larger formats are ideal for open surfaces and commercial-scale work.
Suitable for Professional and Home Use
Whether you are an experienced decorator or taking on a room at home, the correct cover improves both efficiency and quality.
A well-chosen product holds more paint, releases it evenly, and leaves fewer marks or lines behind. Investing in a reliable paint roller cover means fewer coats, cleaner edges, and less time on the job.
