Having the right tools for the job is the first step in any decorating project. Contrary to what many DIY'ers believe, not all decorating supplies are the same and they can't all achieve the same finish. What we always say to DIY'ers is to buy the most expensive decorating tools you can afford, as they offer more durability, will achieve a much better finish and long-term offers much better value for money than a cheap decorating tool that you will use once and bin. The good thing about these water-based wood stains is that they are very versatile. They can be lightened by adding water or intermixed to create alternate colours. Plus they are available in sample sizes so you can carry out some test areas. Any top coat of an interior wood oil or interior varnish will darken and enhance the colour of the stain so a test area with both the stain and protective top coat is highly recommended to assess the final finish and colour.Vacuum the area to remove dust and dirt, before starting work. A slightly damp mop also works well for removing sanding dust from the surface of the floor

Smooth surfaces such as interior doors, radiators and other woodwork and metal require a short-pile nap roller that will achieve an ultra-smooth finish. This is why paint brands have a wide variety of mini-rollers on offer to provide the characterise required for its application. For example, Wooster offer three mini-roller sleeves; the Wooster Jumbo-Koter Red Feather 4.5", the Wooster Jumbo-Koter Big Green 4.5"& the Wooster Jumbo-Koter Pro/Zoo-Z 4.5". The Wooster Jumbo-Koter Red Feather 4.5" in particular is what we would recommend for use on smooth surfaces as it has a perfectly smooth finish and is ideal for use on doors, cabinets & metal, which covers just about any interior smooth surface you will need to paint. Dust sheets: these are used to cover furniture and floors to protect them from paint drips. They’re available in reusable, washable materials or disposable polythene. Emulsions are the most popular paint products for interior and exterior walls; the best roller to use with these paints is a natural roller, ideally made from mohair or wool. Both materials hold acrylic emulsions better than synthetic rollers, which are more suitable for oil-based paints. Sand between varnish coats with extra fine-grit sandpaper (440-grit) to increase the adhesion between coats and get a smooth finish. Don’t sand the final varnish coat as you will remove the glossy and protective topcoat. While waiting for the varnish coat to dry, put the paint roller into a plastic bag and then into a fridge to keep the sealer wet and ready for the next coat.

Use a non-foam paint roller to apply 2-3 varnish coats. While applying the varnish use a “W” pattern for better coverage.

The information above hopefully gives you a good overview of the different types of paint brushes and rollers available and what painting jobs they’re best used for. But here are a few other things to consider before buying: When it comes to quality, this kit doesn’t excel. However, considering its price and versatility, we recommend it for small jobs. The rollers may jam and the brushes lose some bristles, the trays are flimsy but ultimately, you can use the rollers at least a couple of times without any hassle. Designed to reduce paint wastage, drips and splatters – the self-contained roller is refillable and holds up to 900ml of paint. The patented distribution system should deliver an even coat of paint every time to improve coverage. Before the main varnish is applied, you need to seal the wood’s surface. Fortunately, the varnish itself can act as your sealer. Proceed to thin an adequate amount of varnish to 50 percent by adding either gum turpentine or mineral spirits in a ratio of 1:1. Uniformly mix the two and strain twice into an open container where you’ll be dipping your brush.
