hi what is the best form of roller to use on a ceiling covered in artex

A big furry one.

 

Some would say never use a roller on Artex.

Use a scraper

Mr. HandyAndy - Really

 

Depends what sort of pattern is on the artex. If it's a low profile, gentle pattern, then a medium pile roller sleeve should suffice.

For the longer profile type artex, then a long pile sleeve should be ideal. Screwfix sell them.

If it is the longer profile artex, then I usually get a dry short pile sleeve on a pole and swipe across all the ceiling to take the heads off the longer areas of pattern. Then I paint it with a long sleeve roller.

 

I use a paint pad and work into the pattern.

Kind regards

I use plasterboards then a bag of board finish.

 

Nice one MCR
