Linzer Products RC182 9" Foam Paint Roller Cover - RC 182

The roller has been washed & re-used multiple times, still looks and works like new.

For smooth surfaces, this foam roller, that fits on a standard roller, provides a super smooth finish

Did what it is supposed to but I think it still leaves a bit of miniature texture. Maybe its my technique but I get the same finish with mini foam rollers. I think its the sponge that leaves tiny bubbles. The roller is high quality and well made. I washed it out easily and after a small job (hallway) looks like brand new. BTW, I use a spray bottle with diluted ammonia to clean water based paints, after I get most of the paint out of the roller or brush, I squirt it with the ammonia and flush a couple more times. Does a great job

I am not very good with oil based paints or rolling but the foam itself was of fairly high quality and i liked the plastic inner tube. That being said my skills did not do the product justice and left me with rough and bumpy finish that i feel is mostly to user error. For a cheap roller I can recommend this.

I appreciated the smooth coat without splatter from this type of roller. I will be purchasing more in the near future.
