How to Use a Sponge Roller

1. Load the sponge roller with a small amount of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and roll it evenly across the surface. Avoid overloading the roller, as too much paint can result in an uneven finish.
2. For the smoothest application, use light, even pressure and work systematically across the surface. The sponge roller is particularly useful on larger flat areas where you want to minimise visible brush marks.
3. Sponge Rollers can also be used to apply Chalk Paint through Annie Sloan stencils. Apply a relatively small amount of paint to the roller and roll off any excess before applying it through the stencil. This helps prevent paint from bleeding underneath the stencil.
4. The Sponge Roller can also be used to apply Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Lacquer. This particularly works over intricate painted designs where a brush could disturb the underlying paintwork.
5. Clean the roller after use with warm soapy water.
