Side Nap vs. Button End
Some painters use minirollers to paint corners, where two
adjacent walls or the wall and ceiling are the same color. For this,
a cover that has fabric wrapped around the end is needed—
a side nap or closed end. Other painters want minis that allow
them to paint beside a surface of a different color or an
unpainted surface. In that case, a button end creates a cleaner
line and provides greater control. Both roller styles are useful.
TRADITIONAL MINIS
What to Look For in a Miniroller System
The greatest appeal of minirollers is for small jobs that in the past typically required a brush.
They are lightweight, fast, and easy to use.

A durable extension pole is a solid investment because it can last many years. Choosing a quality
pole ultimately saves time and money.
Pole Lock Lever
Easily adjusts pole length every

thumb and locks securely in

Painter’s Tip from California
Lightly spray non-stick cooking spray on the Sherlock aluminum inner pole before painting,
and when you’re done you just easily wipe off the paint. You don’t get paint buildup on the
extension pole, the pole is easier to use, and it doesn’t get stuck.
