press room ::  archived news Micro Plush™ & Cirrus™ Have You Heard the Latest Buzz Words in Paint Rollers? Microfiber and polyamide fabrics are now available from Wooster, the #1 name in rollers. Both gained popularity in Europe, but are now crossing the oceans to the U.S. Micro Plush™ is made with professional white microfiber fabric, very soft and silky to the touch. For use with all paints and enamels, the tiny little fibers deliver a very uniform finish. This roller is perfect for smooth surface applications. Although it is chosen as a finishing tool, not for speed in coverage, Wooster Micro Plush outperforms competitors’ brands for paint pickup and release! Did you know there are literally hundreds of styles of polyamide yarn? Wooster Cirrus™ offers high capacity, durability, and density to reduce spatter. The “bulkiness” of the fabric makes it great for high production on rough surfaces, but it also performs well on drywall or light textures. Painters will love it for back rolling as well as painting. Cirrus is for use with all flat paints, stains, sizings, and waterproofing sealers. Look for a green stripe on the white fabric. Catch the wave with these trendy Wooster roller covers. One universal pile height for each makes selection easy. Micro Plush (catalog number R235) has an approximate retail price of $4.50 USD. Cirrus (catalog number R237) retails for about $7.75 USD.
