Dw184 Decorative Texture Roller - Tree Bark, One Size

Worked well for the ceiling we did..

I was apprehensive when I bought this roller due to some of the reviews, however with some experimentation I found the perfect easy way to use this roller to get excellent results. Initially when I tried using the roller I found it to pick up too much paint and leave lines on the item I was painting due to the design. There are divots cut out along the rollers center section, but not at the edges which is why I encountered lines. The best way I found to use the roller and by using this method I ended up with a very realistic looking tree, was to paint a thin cost of paint onto the roller with a paint brush, only coating the center section not the edges. By keeping the smooth edges free of paint I was able to eliminate the problem of lines, and by applying the paint in a thin coat with a paint brush I was able to control the amount of paint being distributed onto the piece I was painting. The process was very quick, and I was able to complete my project in no time. I started by painting a solid coat of nearly black paint on the project. I followed that up with a layer using the tree bark roller and a dark brown paint. Next I applied a lighter shade of brown, and lastly a very light layer of a light gray. I love the results. Sure wish the company would have included these type of instructions with the roller, it would have saved me lots of time and paint. There were no instructions with my delivery.

Easy to use, delivered before time stated, fairly easy to clean, worked fairly well on our ceiling but didn’t give the expected result so we used another texture roller along with this one and achieved the result we were looking for.

Very good for pop corn repairs

Good deal and quick delivery
