How to Use the 151 Products Mini Roller and Tray Set

Materials Needed

• 151 Products Mini Roller and Tray Set
• Paint of your choice
• Protective sheet or newspaper
• Painter’s tape (optional)
• Paintbrush for edges and corners (optional)

Preparation

1. Choose the area you want to paint and clear it of any furniture or obstructions.
2. Lay down a protective sheet or newspaper to catch any drips or spills.
3. Use painter’s tape to cover any areas you do not want painted, such as trim or windows.

Setting Up the Roller and Tray

1. Open your paint can and stir the paint thoroughly to ensure even color and consistency.
2. Pour a small amount of paint into the tray, filling the reservoir at the end.
3. Dip the mini roller into the paint, ensuring it is evenly coated.
4. Roll the roller back and forth on the tray’s ridged section to remove excess paint and ensure an even load.

Painting

1. Start at one corner of the area you want to paint.
2. Use long, smooth strokes to apply the paint, working in small sections.
3. Ensure even coverage by overlapping each stroke slightly with the previous one.
4. If needed, use a paintbrush to cut in and cover edges and corners where the roller cannot reach.

Cleaning Up

1. Once you have finished painting, remove any painter’s tape while the paint is still slightly wet to avoid peeling.
2. Wash the roller with warm, soapy water if using water-based paint, or the appropriate solvent for oil-based paints.
3. Rinse the tray thoroughly and allow both the roller and tray to dry completely before storing.

Additional Tips

• For best results, apply two coats of paint, allowing the first coat to dry completely before applying the second.
• Keep the roller covered with plastic wrap if you need to take a break, to prevent the paint from drying out.
• Always follow the safety instructions on your paint can.
