mushroom 14,247 Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Doing some decorating and I have solid panel doors that need painting (gloss). Can you use a roller (big/small, specialist etc) for gloss paint? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 22,866 Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Yeah. The gloss rollers have like a foam /sponge covering rather than the wool but I've found any work....perhaps the foam ones are meant to leave a smoother finish 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnipper 6,916 Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Satin paint is a piece of piss to use compared to gloss mate. I did all the doors and skirting in the extension with one of them foam rollers. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks lads Pay a few pence more than the no nonsense screwfix ones, they fall apart every two minutes, and gloss is fine with a 4” roller, funny I,ve just done the bottom of my living room this afternoon, with a roller and gloss because the satin has yellowed and marks to easily 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
