Mech you look...well...uh...


I want to understand the roller wiping you mentioned. Is this after you get paint on your roller in the tray, then you wipe the nap on both ends of the roller (before going to the screen)? Or are you only wiping off the end edge itself (the circumferential "corner" formed where the end of the nap meets the end cap)?

If you actually get onto the nap, how much of the nap do you wipe off with the rag? An inch on each end?

I need muzz to make a video for dummies like me who've historically had roller mark issues
I wiped the outer edge and maybe 1/4-1/2 inch in. I just gripped that part with the rag and let it soak up the excess. I'd experiment some before rolling the screen!
