Best roller to use for painting door frames?

[nika]

Hi,

I have just sanded right back my door frames to metal and I am about to prime them with Dulux all metal primmer- water base. What would be the best roller to use? 

thanks

Hi @nika 

Nice  work you did on the door frames  they look nice and smooth

I would  use those little foam roller kits as you want a nice thin coating  for your new frame,  There are other more quality rollers you  can  use if you wish use one  with low  nap for a  smooth  finish so paint isnt lumpy and overly textured.

Inexpensive the small cute foam rollers,

Dont  forget to sheid the wall paint  with a  paint guard saving you to have to re do wall paint for minor over painting.

I can see the wall isnt  painted  yet.

Keep  some  left over door frame  paint  for later retouches in a  jar or in 1 or 2 litre soft drink bottles as it lasts  longer  than in a  rusty paint  tin.

Others have equaly good differing advise.

Hi @nika,

Great work; that would have been a decent amount of effort.

Dulux recommends using a 10mm nap roller for the best results.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
