Ratings & Reviews for Purdy 9-in x 1/4-in Nap Parrot Smooth Standard Woven Paint Roller Cover

What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise this roller for delivering glass-like, professional-grade finishes that rival spray application, particularly on cabinets, furniture, and trim with polyurethane and enamel paints. The 1/4 inch nap and sturdy construction enable smooth, even coverage with minimal texture. However, many report significant lint shedding that requires sanding and repainting despite pre-treatment efforts. Some users note the roller performs exceptionally well with oil-based products and can be reused after washing. While lint contamination remains a frustration for a notable portion of reviewers, most who follow proper technique consider the finish quality worth the effort.

Still leaves an "orange peel" texture
Would Not RecommendMy wife used this on a piece of furniture and it left texture that she had to end up wet sanding to remove.

Good Quality Roller for Shellac Primer
Would RecommendI was looking for a roller to apply shellac primer to a small wood surface and settle the Purdy ¼ inch Nap Smooth Finish. I did research prior and concluded that this product should do a well enough job to apply the shellac. After a light sanding, I applied two coats. I application and the finish came out great, no complaints. Definitely the right roller for the job.
