Ratings & Reviews for Purdy 2 -Pack 4.5-in x 1/4-in Nap WhiteDove Smooth Mini Woven Paint Roller Cover

Professional grade even for newbies.

Purdy White Dove is my new standard for paint roller covers. Professionals swear by them for a reason, and these little guys pack an impressive punch for detail work and application in small/confined areas, like edging, wainscoting, baseboards, and doors. The White Dove have nearly no lint. Dense knap and solid fibres resist leaving little surprises behind while you paint. They provide a uniform, excellent finish when spreading the paint on wood or drywall, and I was extremely pleased to see h...

The only kind I buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are good for the price, leave a good finish, not a lot of lint. I'm not a pro but this is the only brand I look at when I need paint supplies.

The smoothest finish ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this roller cover for the first time at a high end residential job recently. The homeowners were super picky about the work and would never accept shoddy painting. This roller cover blew my mind on the incredibly smooth finish that it left, will nwver use another brand or kind of cover again!!!

Awful sleeve

I am a union professional painter. These sleeves separate where the fabric meets leaving swirled lines on the walls doesn't matter what paint mfg was used it preformed the There was a time Purdy made high quality products and tools but after Sherwin Williams acquired company they ruin the quality of the products. We switched to only using Wooster sleeves because they are the now the highest quality sleeves you can buy.

Not the Same Results

I have been using Purdy brushes & Purdy white dove roller covers for years with good results. My recent FR & kitchen painting project left multiple roller marks with newly purchased white dove covers & had to be redone. I switched to the Purdy marathon & golden eagle covers and the roller marks disappeared. No more white doves for me!

Junk

These rollers barely made it through the first coat before I had to discard. Roller kept breaking apart. Worst rollers I have used in a very long time. Very disappointed with these white dove rollers.

Great roller cover

I've used these covers often and I'm very happy with the results. They leave a smooth, lint free finish.

Finish that can’t be beat!

I use to use the colossus but the finish was not impressive, it is a great production cover but for new construction I prefer the 3/8 white dove ! It really gives a lint free perfect finish ! I’m a professional and I know what looks good. To all the diy people that are complaining about the cover well this is why a professional should do your painting! We know what to do about the (flat tire) or (lint) statements quit reviewing bad on a great product an let us show you how to work the roller! Ha...

HELPFUL HINT FOR: Uneven Flat Spot

The issue isn't the roller my friend, it has to do with adequate paint coverage on the roller in the paint tray. You may find with new rollers that it can be difficult to get the roller to actually roll in the paint tray. So when you go to apply the paint on the wall, all of the paint is only on the one area of the roller and will have flat uneven spots. You will need to make sure that the roller has full paint on the entire roller for the best results. This advice comes from a professional pa...
