Should You Use The Smart Roller? Wagner Smart Roller Review!

What happens here

First, assemble the roller head onto the main shaft. The video shows a spring-loaded mechanism that snaps into place. Next, prepare the roller cover. The presenter demonstrates that the roller cover has an inner core. He recommends pre-cleaning or 'delinting' the roller cover using painter's tape. Wrap tape around the roller cover, press firmly, and then unwrap it to remove any loose lint. Repeat this process multiple times until no more lint comes off. This prevents lint from transferring to the freshly painted walls.

Goal: Attach the roller head and prepare the roller cover for painting.

we've got that hooked up we're gonna assemble our head so here's our head and this is um interesting uh this looks very familiar so here's your head your roller head right here your roller cover this is what i um have seen on a titan interfeed roller that's the same exact device on a tight interfeed roller this is the roller cover right here so there's your roller cover got a roller right here perforated holes this is identical to a titan inner feed roller cover same exact core for the titan interfeed roller don't lose these these do not come with the roller covers themselves if you're going to reuse it so i'm going to put this back together and a handy little trick when it comes to removing this if you try to pull it like this it does not come out very easily use two thumbs pop it up and it actually comes off simply and easy and i know that because i've used a titan interfeed roller a lot so one thing you want to check right here if i just pull on this there's a lot of lint coming out of this roller that will actually be left on your walls if you don't pre-clean or pre-de-lint your rollers so here's a good little tip to de-linting your rollers take some tape and you can wrap tape around this roller just like this and you can use cheaper production tape instead of expensive frog tape but we're going to de-limp this roller first if you get lint all over your walls you're going to have to sand your walls off because this thing um i gotta say that's one um one cheap roller so it's it's not a high quality roller we'll see how it lays out the paint now pulling our tape off you can see there's lint all over this tape that would actually be left all over your walls so really really important to delint i actually like taking it out and actually running water through it like you're actually cleaning it and spinning it and pre-wetting it first but that's the de-linting process right there let's see and pull there's still still some lens coming out so i'm going to uh de-lint it one more time with production tape because production tape the adhesive is a lot stronger and it's going to pull more of the lint off all
