Hello,
I had forgotten just how much I hate painting; ceilings especially.
I have bought various bits and pieces by Harris; I thought they were supposed to be a good brand?
The first time I bought some nine inches roller cages and an extension pole for the ceiling from Screwfix:
So this time I bought a screw on cage:
I found that taking the cage off the pole and using the roller by hand off a stepladder reduced the sleeve from sliding as much. Perhaps the sliding force is greater when at the end of a pole (moment and all that?)
If I ever do a ceiling again, should I go for a 12 inch cage that holds the sleeve at both ends; at least then the sleeve can't slide anywhere?!
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
