Can Someone Recommend An 18” Frame ?


We've been using the SW 18" frame for the past 2 jobs and they suck big time. For some reason, It "bleeds" from the ends, meaning the 2 ends that actually go into the roller cover sockets bleeds and ends up onto the roller pad then onto the wall.

Does this makes sense to you?

Can someone recommend an 18” Frame that would be better?

Thanks

I use the wooster Big Ben BR045-18 for back rolling ceilings. I also have another one that i use now and again for rolling 2 story big walls that has a angled head on it. it is, Sherlock Wide Boy Roller Frame - BR047-18
Other than those two scenarios i use a 9" frame and cover.

I like the Big Ben a lot better than the others. I also like that it is lighter than the metal ones.
