Roller width and tray have to match, which is easy to overlook when buying them separately. A 9in sleeve in a 4in tray cannot be loaded evenly, and the result shows on the wall as a roller that carries paint on one half of its width. Buying the roller, sleeve and tray together as a system removes the mismatch entirely.
Sleeve material and pile decide the finish more than the paint does. High-density sleeves lay a smooth film on flat surfaces. Polyamide holds more paint and covers faster. Super-micro microfibre gives the finest finish where the surface will show every mark. Pile depth also decides how much texture the roller will follow on an uneven surface.
Width follows the surface. A 4in roller cuts round obstacles and does a small area quickly. A 9in roller is the general size for walls. An 18in roller covers a ceiling or a large wall in far fewer passes, at the cost of being heavier to hold up. Rollingdog hold systems at 4in, 9in and 18in with sleeves in all three materials.
Buckets suit larger work better than trays, holding more paint and standing on the floor without tipping. Liners keep the bucket clean between colours, and a mini roller set at 50mm covers detail.

A 4in bucket suits cutting in where a 9in bucket is more than the work needs.
