Purdy Parrot Jumbo Mini Roller Sleeve - 6.5"

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 6.5 inch sleeve is the larger option in the Parrot range, giving faster coverage than the 4.5 inch size while still being compact enough for doors, cabinets, shelving and wider trim. The 1/4 inch nap and tightly woven mohair fibre lay paint down smoothly, reducing brush marks and stipple on flat panel doors and furniture.

How to Use

• Fit the sleeve onto a Purdy jumbo mini roller frame with a 3/4 inch cage.
• Load evenly in a paint tray and remove excess paint before rolling.
• Roll in light, even passes, finishing with a single direction pass for a smooth top coat.
• Best used with high gloss or semi gloss oil based or water based paints on wood or metal.
• Clean immediately after use with warm soapy water or water depending on the paint type, then reshape and air dry.

FAQs

What is the difference between the 4.5 inch and 6.5 inch Parrot sleeves?
Both use the same mohair fabric and 1/4 inch nap, but the 6.5 inch sleeve covers a larger area per pass, making it a good choice for doors, cabinets and wider trim, while the 4.5 inch size suits narrower sections.

Can I use this on doors and furniture?
Yes, this sleeve is designed for wood or metal trim, doors and cabinets and gives a smooth, glass like finish with gloss and semi gloss paints.

Is this sleeve compatible with a standard 9 inch roller frame?
No, it needs a Purdy jumbo mini roller frame with a 3/4 inch cage, not a standard size frame.
