If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think much about cleaning your paint roller. After all, it’s just a tool that helps you get the job done. But if your paint roller is dirty, it can actually cause problems. Here are four tips on how to clean a paint roller:

  1. Use warm water and soap. Fill a bowl or sink with warm water and add enough soap to cover the roller. Swish the water around and use a brush to scrub the surface of the roller. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.
  2. Use a vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment. If you don’t have access to warm water or soap, use a vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment to clean the roller. Make sure to use suction to remove any dirt, dust, or debris from the surface of the roller.
  3. Use an oven cleaner spray bottle filled with white vinegar and water mixture (50/50). Spray some of this mixture onto the surface of the roller and let it sit for about five minutes before wiping it off with a cloth or paper towel. Be sure to rinse off any residue before using your paint again.
  4. Use rubbing alcohol on a cloth or paper towel to clean off any residue from steps 1-3 if needed ..
