My paint roller keeps sliding off. What can I do?
Roll in the opposite direction. Then, the roller will tend to put itself back on instead of trying to slide off.
First: make sure the roller is locked in. If you can't lock it in, or it's simply broken, just run up to the store and ask an employee for assistance if needed on which roller is best.
Wrap masking tape around the metal part so that the roller fits a little tighter.
Buy a better roller handle.
just go to lowes and buy a new one there not that expencive or hot or super glue it.
get a new paint roller?
Put an elastic band on each end of the sponge/whatever roller. It makes it a little shorter, but secure
apply more pressure when rolling the paint onto the wall
