Purdy Parrot Jumbo Mini Roller Sleeve - 4.5"

The Purdy Parrot Jumbo Mini Roller Sleeve range is built for precision work where a standard size roller is too bulky. Made from 100 percent woven mohair with a durable polypropylene core, Parrot sleeves are designed to fit Purdy jumbo mini roller frames and give a glass like, virtually stipple free finish on high gloss and semi gloss paints.

This 4.5 inch sleeve is the smaller option in the Parrot range, ideal for trim, skirting boards, door panels, window frames, spindles and other tight or awkward areas where a full size roller will not fit. The 1/4 inch nap and tightly woven mohair fibre pick up and release paint evenly, so you get a smooth, professional result with minimal roller marks on wood or metal.

How to Use

• Fit the sleeve onto a Purdy jumbo mini roller frame with a 3/4 inch cage.
• Load the sleeve evenly in a paint tray, removing any excess paint before rolling.
• Apply paint in light, even strokes, working in one direction for the smoothest finish.
• Use with high gloss or semi gloss oil based or water based trim paints for best results.
• Wash out with warm soapy water immediately after use for oil based paints, or clean with water for water based paints, then reshape and leave to dry.
