Twisty 50/50 Long-Pile Paint Roller for Rough & Textured Surfaces
R53.15 – R72.13Price range: R53.15 through R72.13
ROX® Twisty 50/50 is a contractor-quality long-pile paint roller designed for applying high-viscosity water-based paints to rough and textured surfaces. Its above-average density fabric provides good paint distribution and working life, while the long pile helps retain paint during application.
The Twisty 50/50 is particularly suited to textured and sand-filled acrylic paints, PVA and primers. It can be used on a range of construction and masonry surfaces, including concrete, plaster, bricks, roof tiles and blocks, for both interior and exterior applications.
The roller is designed for paint retention and efficient paint release rather than for lint-free or splatter-free application. For the best results, select the roller according to the surface texture and coating being applied.

A long-pile paint roller has longer fibres designed to retain and distribute paint across textured, rough or uneven surfaces. The longer pile helps the roller carry paint into surface texture, making this type of roller particularly useful where a shorter-pile roller may not distribute the coating effectively across the surface.
The ROX® Twisty 50/50 combines long-pile fabric with an above-average fabric density to provide good paint retention, paint distribution and working life for suitable applications.
- Contractor-quality long-pile fabric for professional painting applications.
