How do you prevent lines when rolling paint? ›

Method to prevent roller marks

One is to make sure the paint is mixed well before using it. Another is to use a high-quality roller cover and make sure it's in good condition. When rolling the paint on, start at the top and work your way down. Apply even pressure and avoid going over the same area multiple times.

Use a synthetic, short-napped roller, which tends to leave fewer marks. Use a vacuum to remove any lint from the roller beforehand. Move the roller back and forth in the paint tray to remove excess paint. Your roller shouldn't be dripping, but it also shouldn't be too tacky or dry.

You are more likely to see roller marks when you are painting with latex paint. To prevent this problem, pre-dampen the roller cover and then thoroughly shake out any excess water before starting to paint.

Ceilings and Drywall - Medium 3/8″ roller covers work best. Walls, Wood, and Metal - Small 1/4″ roller covers or foam rollers will produce the smoothest finish. Light to Medium Textured Surfaces - Microfiber rollers are best. Smooth Surfaces - Use a white woven short nap roller for an ultra fine finish.

Best for texture: Sprayers are extremely good at covering textured surfaces and can make your job go smoother if you're painting over a textured surface. Best for exterior painting: It's usually better to use a roller when painting interior walls because it requires less preparation and skill.

Using too much or too little paint will result in an uneven finish and can add unwanted texture to your paint job. If you load the roller or brush too much, it can cause drips and sags. It also extends dry time. Using too little affects the texture because you have to paint more coats than necessary.

To paint straight lines, you need an angular brush, preferably a 2- to 3-inch angled trim brush—one made specifically for the job at hand. Don't settle for a large and unruly brush or a used one with frayed bristles or a rounded tip.

Applying another coat of paint is one of the most popular ways to remove roller marks. When painting a second coat, you provide the surface with more paint coverage. The additional coverage you get from a second coat of paint will help fill in any areas you missed with the first coat, creating a more uniform finish.

Why are there lines on paint rollers? ›

More often than not, roller marks occur when you fail to load your roller with enough paint, or have exhausted the paint in your roller and are trying to cover more area than you should. Finally, applying the wrong amount of pressure can cause paint to push out around the edge of the roller, creating a streak.

Roll a “W” on the wall with the roller, filling the empty spaces in a top to bottom motion. This will help place an even distribution of paint onto the wall. Repeat this until you have completely covered the entire wall.
