OPTIONAL PRIMING METHOD
1. Move switch to APPLY, then squeeze the trigger on the
main tube. It will take several squeezes of the trigger to
fully saturate the roller cover.
NOTE: When using either method, do not oversaturate
the roller. An oversaturated roller will slide,
drip, and spatter excessively.

APPLYING PAINT

Because priming the roller may use a lot of the paint in the main
tube, you may need to refill the main tube after priming. Once
paint appears through the roller cover, begin rolling. Keep paint
flowing to the roller by squeezing the trigger as necessary.
Refill as necessary to complete project.
NOTE: When painting, make sure your floors and
furnishings are sufficiently protected against
drips or spatters.
