Plastic paint tray 18 x 32 cm No name — PU insert for paint rollers

Plastic paint tray 18 x 32 cm with a polyurethane (PU) insert is a compact accessory designed to simplify painting with rollers and brushes. The shallow reservoir holds a working amount of paint while the integrated textured PU surface enables even loading of roller nap. The tray is lightweight, easy to handle and clean, and sized for small to medium painting tasks and touch-up work in both interior and exterior settings.

Advantages

The PU insert provides a durable, non-slip textured surface that helps distribute paint evenly across the roller, reducing splatter and improving coverage. Its plastic body is resistant to common water- and solvent-based paints, and the compact footprint makes storage and transport simple. The shallow well minimizes wasted paint while permitting quick immersion and pick-up with standard roller covers and brushes. The overall construction supports repeated use and straightforward cleaning after each job.

Suitable for

• Applying emulsion, acrylic and latex paints with small to medium rollers
• Interior walls, ceilings and trim touch-ups
• Exterior small areas and remedial painting
• DIY projects, furniture refinishing and craft painting

How to use

Pour a moderate amount of paint into the shallow reservoir, avoiding overfilling. Roll the cover into the paint and then back and forth across the textured PU insert to load the roller evenly and remove excess paint. Apply paint to the surface in overlapping passes for uniform coverage. Use a brush for edges and corners, dipping into the same reservoir as needed. After finishing, remove excess paint, rinse the tray and PU insert with water for water-based paints or follow solvent recommendations for other paint types, then allow to dry.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use roller covers sized to match the tray width and a moderate nap suitable for the paint and surface texture. Clean the tray promptly after use to prevent paint buildup on the PU insert. When working with solvent-based paints, follow safety and disposal guidelines for solvents and clean using appropriate solvents outside or in a well-ventilated area.
