The Antares paint roller range is now arranged by what is being painted, so the right roller is easier to find.

The Paint rollers section has six groups:

• Wall & ceiling paint rollers – for water-based wall and ceiling paints on smooth surfaces;
• Facade & rough surface rollers – for facade paints and uneven or rough surfaces;
• Enamel & varnish rollers – for alkyd and water-based enamels, gloss paints and varnishes;
• Epoxy, PU & floor coating rollers – for one- and two-component (1K/2K) epoxy and polyurethane paints and floor coatings;
• Flock & foam rollers – for smooth finishes on doors, frames, furniture and radiators;
• Mini rollers – Ø15 mm rollers for small and hard-to-reach areas.

Many rollers belong to more than one group. Gold Stripe, for example, is listed both for wall paints and for enamels.

A table on the Paint rollers page shows which roller to use for which paint: water-based wall paints on smooth or rough surfaces, deep-penetrating primers, alkyd paints and primers for wood and metal, high-gloss paints and varnishes, wood varnishes and stains, epoxy and polyurethane systems (1K/2K), and fillers and plaster. Most roller names in the table link to the product page.

For epoxy and polyurethane systems, flock rollers are suitable only for water-based products. Flock rollers are not suitable for nitrocellulose lacquers. Rollers for fillers and plaster, such as the Stucco roller (Filler Master), are in the Special rollers section.

All paint rollers are available under the Antares brand or as private label.
