ᐅ Painting Walls

Hi!

I recently saw on a home renovation TV show that a professional painter used a very practical setup to paint the walls. It involved a device connected to the roller, which dispensed paint directly onto the roller itself. It was brilliant! Everything worked perfectly without any paint dripping down!

Do you know what this kind of device is called?

Best regards,

Hello Yung,

unfortunately, I have no idea what this device is called.
I have seen and used similar devices before.
The problem is: the cheap ones from the hardware store are useless. The lines clog quickly, not enough paint flows through, or sometimes too much paint comes out at the front, so there is no real benefit.
Professional equipment, on the other hand, is very expensive and not worth it for the average user.

Hi!

This is usually the case with cheap tools from hardware stores, even with paintbrushes. Although they may look similar, there are significant differences. For example, the main difference between expensive and cheap brushes is the bristles. With cheap brushes, the paint tends to run off quickly, so you have to keep dipping them back into the paint. A higher-quality brush, on the other hand, holds the paint much better, allowing you to cover more surface with one load of paint.

I would rather spend a few more euros on quality.

Hi everyone!

I fully agree with the previous comment. When it comes to tools, you shouldn’t save money. It can quickly backfire. Quality does come at a price.

Don’t you think that if this thing were really that great, painters would already be using it by now? 😎 Forget this gadget and save your money for something useful. Better buy yourself a beer instead. 🙄
