Choose a Paint Brush or Roller FAQs

Which tool is faster?

Rollers are generally faster on broad areas, while brushes provide better control at edges and details.

Why are bubbles appearing after rolling?

Overworking, unsuitable roller texture, high speed or coating properties can introduce or retain bubbles.

Can a brush be stored in thinner overnight?

Follow the brush and coating guidance. Prolonged soaking can damage filaments, adhesive and handles.
