General Rolling Tips:

Preparing the room

Remove all pictures, mirrors, and decorations

from the walls and draperies from the

windows. Remove all nails, hardware and

switch and receptacle covers. Cover furniture

and oor with drop cloths.

Surface Preparation

• Always remove wallpaper before painting.

Wash off old adhesive and rinse with

water. Allow the walls to dry before

painting.

• Wash and rinse dirt, grease and oil build-

up off the walls with soap and water.

• Fill all nail holes, joints and cracks with

patching paste. Let dry and sand the

surface until smooth. Clean sanded area

with a damp cloth.

• Spot prime all patched areas and any

marker and/or pen marks before applying

rst coat.

TIP: Write the important information from

your paint can (color, formula, brand and

paint type) on the back of a switch plate for

future reference.

Painting the Room

TIP: If you need more than one gallon of

paint to do the room’s walls, mix them

together to ensure color uniformity.

• Always make sure to open a window or

door to ensure proper ventilation. If you are

painting both the ceiling and walls in your

room, start with the ceiling rst and then

move to the walls.

Ceilings:

• To minimize spills and spatters, use the

spatter guard and paint across the short

width of the ceiling.

Walls:

• Tape off around base and window and

door trim.

• Paint one wall at a time.

• Pick an area to start where you can

saturate the roller cover and evenly

distribute the paint. Working in three-

foot sections, begin by cutting-in around

windows, doors, cabinets, base and other

breaks in the wall surface with a pad or

brush.

• Press the switch until paint appears

through the roller cover.

• Start painting at one end of a wall and roll

out the letter “W”. Fill it in with crosswise

strokes, working your way across the wall

in 3’ x 3’ sections. Finish the sections by

painting one solid swipe from ceiling to

oor. This will give you a nice even paint

nish.

• Press the switch as needed for more paint.

Be careful not to over-saturate the roller

cover as it may drip, slide on the wall or

spatter.

• Make sure to run the roller cover over

the areas you cut-in around the trim and

baseboards to even out the texture.

• If you need to stop and take a break; nish

painting the entire wall, or stop at a break

in the wall such as a doorway or corner to

prevent lap marks.

Loading the roller

1. Push upper part of the switch to push the plunger forward and bring

material to the roller. When you start to see material come out of the roller,

you are ready to begin rolling.

2. Push the switch as necessary to bring additional material to the roller.

3. Rell as needed (see Filling the Main Tube, page 3).

PINCH CAUTION - Keep your hand away

from the area between the rear of the

handle and the plunger cap. The gear-

driven plunger can pinch.

TIP: During extended break periods, place a plastic bag around the

roller cover and ll valve to keep it from drying out.

TIP: For best results, maintain a steady ow of material to the roller.

cover and avoid rolling it dry.

TIP: Do not reverse plunger direction during rolling. This will cause air

build-up in the main tube and cause spatters.

TIP: If batteries run out during rolling, ip the lever to MANUAL.

Material can be brought to the roller by pushing the plunger forward.
