What kind of roller covers work best for DiamondFinish Clear?

Mohair low nap roller covers work best for rolling on DiamondFinish Clear. You can also use low nap foam rollers for applying DiamondFinish Clear by roller.

★ Pro Tip — Thinning for Roll Application

When rolling DiamondFinish Clear, thin 20% with KBS #1 Thinner for your first coat. You may thin subsequent coats a little more to prevent surface tension between coats — the roller marks will flow out nicely.

⚠ Important — Do Not Overwork the Roller

Apply thin, covering coats and avoid overworking the roller — this can cause DiamondFinish Clear to cure too quickly, potentially leaving visible roller marks. Roll an area and move on immediately. Rolling the same section repeatedly forces out the solvents and can prevent roller marks from flowing out as they are designed to do.
