Wool Vs. Lambskin?

What is ya'll opinion on Wool vs. Lambskin?


The reason I ask is I see that lots of Lambskin rollers are rated for flats, and satin.

Wool on the other hand tends to be rated for all sheens.

We use lambs wool, so I missed your point. kind of a oxymoron wouldn't you say? as for paint goes we use the same roller skins for all paints.

Re: Wool Vs. Lambskin?

Well it was the Wooster Website that has Woster Wool, and Lamb Wool (not lambskin if that makes a difference) roller covers.

But I guess one they just pick out the better wool to use?
