Foam roller Polax 7 cm thickness Ø35 mm, for painting and surface finishing

Polax foam roller with 7 cm thickness and 35 mm diameter core is designed for painting and surface finishing of walls, furniture and other small to medium surfaces. The closed-cell foam cover provides even application of paints, varnishes and other liquid finishes, reducing brush marks and improving coverage on smooth and semi-smooth substrates. The roller fits standard roller frames with a 35 mm diameter bore and is suitable for both DIY and professional use where a fine, uniform texture is required.

Advantages

The closed-cell foam construction ensures minimal paint absorption and consistent release, which helps reduce waste and delivers a uniform finish. Its 7 cm thickness offers a comfortable working width for small areas and touch-ups while maintaining control during edging and detail work. The 35 mm core diameter is compatible with most standard roller frames, enabling quick replacement and secure fit. The foam surface is easy to clean after use with water-based products and can be reused multiple times when properly maintained.

Suitable for

• Applying water-based paints and varnishes on smooth or semi-smooth walls
• Surface finishing of doors, cabinets and furniture
• Touch-ups, small rooms and detail painting
• Applying primers and sealers on non-porous substrates

How to use

Attach the Polax foam roller securely to a compatible frame. Pour paint into a tray and roll the foam roller in the tray until it is evenly loaded without dripping. Apply paint using steady, overlapping strokes to obtain a uniform finish; avoid excessive pressure to prevent stretch marks or uneven texture. For edging or small surfaces, use short controlled passes. After use with water-based products, rinse the roller thoroughly with clean water until the runoff is clear, then squeeze excess water and allow it to dry fully before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the foam roller primarily with water-based coatings for best results; test on a small area before full application. Replace the roller when the foam shows signs of tearing, permanent deformation or when coverage becomes uneven. Store dry and protected from direct sunlight to prolong service life.
