Re: Polar Bear Jumbo Roller


I'm a painting contractor in Auburn Hills, MI. and I use nothing but polar bear rollers, they come in 9inch and 18 inch. They leave a nice finish, load up real nice and clean up real nice. They are great for new work and repaints. I have never had a compliant.

Re: Polar Bear Jumbo Roller


Does anyone have a problem with polar bears spraying. Ive used different paints with them and they all seem to spray like crazy. Now we are using the Whizz big dipper which is comparable to the polar bears.

Thanks Dan

I buy mine from my local paint store. You can try putting in a request at www.thepaintstore.com to see if they can get you any. There pretty good about that.

Thanks Dan

I didn' care for the polar bear, to me it left a funky stipple. But everyone has there own opinion. I will try the big dipper and see how that is.

I thought they were endangered, now you tell me youve thought them to spray?
