Editor's Notes
September 15, 2020:
For small jobs, choose either Edward Tools Mini for their small rollers that can get into tight spaces or the Jaina Basic with it's basic rollers and brush for straightforward jobs.
For your big endeavors, choose the Kingorigin Tool Box because it has a lot of tools plus plenty of additional rollers and brushes for exterior or interior jobs. It has a unique large bucket with a handle that you can carry around instead of a traditional paint tray. The bucket holds up to 2.6 gallons of paint so it goes a long way, but some people are more comfortable using a traditional paint tray. With some products we noted that trays sometimes arrive damaged so a bucket may be a stronger solution; otherwise vendors were happy to replace the trays.
If you are handy and looking for meticulous results, you may want to try the Graco 244512. It's a pressure roller that attaches to your spray painter. If you apply steady pressure on the spray gun, too much pressure can build up in the roller. Instead, you have to pulse the spray gun as you need more paint, so it takes some practice to use properly.
