can I use this paint with out a honeycomb roller?

No, Michael. Using either a 4” or 9” Restore Honeycomb roller, saturate the roller cover and roll in ONE DIRECTION, with slight downward pressure to maintain texture and to push material into cracks and voids. Work to a wet edge at all times. Avoid rolling back into coated areas where drying has begun. Coat 1 to 2 boards at a time.
