Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DIY cage frame?

A DIY cage frame is a basic open roller cage that suits most home painting jobs. It is lighter than a heavy duty frame and takes the standard 230mm roller cover, and it is fully adjustable on the pole for wall and ceiling work.

Is the 10mm nap good for my paint?

A 10mm nap acrylic cover is the standard all round choice for flat and low sheen acrylic paints on smooth to lightly textured surfaces. It carries a good load of paint and lays it off evenly without too much stipple.

How does the twist lock pole work?

Twist the collar to loosen the pole, slide it to the length you want, then twist it tight again. The 0.85 to 1.55 metre range covers most wall heights, and the pole clips or screws into the roller frame.

What is the twist lock pole for?

The twist lock pole extends from 0.85 to 1.55 metres, so you can roll walls and ceilings from the floor instead of working on a ladder. Twist the collar to adjust the length and tighten it in place.

Can I use the roller for ceilings?

Yes. The twist lock pole extends to 1.55 metres, so you can roll most ceilings from the floor. Work in a W pattern and lay off with light passes for an even coat.
