Tell him to look for a 10 inch 'Rodo lifetimer' sleeve..its long pile and has a sponge centre that goes over the small bumps in the surface....he will also need a push on extension pole..which will save him getting up and down the ladder a few times.

Oh and a decent size roller tray big enough to take the sleeve...failing that a 9 inch woven pile sleeve (long pile) that has a diameter of 1 3/4 inches to fit a cage roller frame.

Its worth spending a few quid extra to get better quality equipment..it will make the job easier in the long run.

Forget places like B&Q tell him to head for a trade centre like Dulux, Crown or Johnstones..

No contest......... "Purdy" are by far the best, available from Dulux Decorator Centres or online direct.

Make Sure The "SLEEVE" that Fits The Apparatus - is made From " sheep ".. or lambs wool for interior x

gives a much better finished look lol and applies more paint to the property - meaning - needs painted less
