Best 12-inch roller sleeves for large walls or ceilings?
Got high ceilings and big wall areas to paint – thinking a 12-inch roller would speed things up compared to the standard 9-inch. What sleeves work well for emulsion without leaving orange peel or missing spots? Microfibre, polyamide, or something else? Any that don't shed much?

A solid roller set saves so much hassle – good ones have a comfortable frame, lint-free sleeves, and a tray that doesn't tip over. For smooth interior walls I prefer 9-inch micro-fibre or woven sleeves (medium pile for slight texture); they hold paint well and give an even finish without much roller stipple. I got a complete kit recently and it made cutting in and rolling much faster.

Brands like Anza or Wooster ones are reliable. Get extension poles if ceilings are high.
