The ROX Stipple & Ripple™ Roller is a specialist coarse foam roller designed to create textured, stipple and ripple finishes on suitable surfaces. Its solvent-resistant foam with low pick-up and release characteristics makes it particularly useful for back-rolling coatings and finishing urethane screeds.
The 230 mm roller is suitable for use on concrete and plaster walls, floors and ceilings, as well as for applying textured finishes with sand-filled paints. Designed for interior and exterior applications where the specified coating system is compatible with the roller.

A Stipple & Ripple roller is a specialist roller designed to create a textured surface finish rather than the conventional finish associated with many standard paint rollers.
The ROX Stipple & Ripple™ Roller uses coarse foam and is specified for creating textured, stipple or ripple finishes with compatible textured coatings, including sand-filled paints. It is also intended for back-rolling 6–9 mm urethane screeds for final surface finishing.
Unlike a roller selected primarily for applying and distributing paint, this roller is described as having low pick-up and release characteristics. Its intended role should therefore be considered when choosing the correct roller for a particular coating and finishing process.
The correct roller and application technique depend on the coating manufacturer's specifications, the prepared surface and the finish required.
