Tools and Hardware Reviews of SHUR-LINE 5200 Professional Paint Brush & Roller CleanerCustomer Review: Works even better than expected. Summary: 5 Stars
This product quickly, easily gets 99% of remaining liquid out of a paint-brush or roller. (I have only tried it with latex paints.). It works so well with brushes, but I'm going to describe how incredibly well it works with rollers.
For years, I've spent about 15 minutes with running water, trying to get a 3/8" or 1/2" nap roller clean, and then tried in vain to squeeze the water out by hand. Then the roller sits on end, on a stack of newspapers, and continues to drip. If I was very thorough, the roller would dry, clean, in about 36 hours. However, the more typical case is that the lowest 1/4" of the roller would get the residual paint particles, and would be hardened. After a few days, this section would be permanently hardened.
No more ! I spend 5 minutes with a hose, getting most of the paint out. Then, outside, I spin it for 10 seconds, and 90% of the paint that's left flies off onto the ground. Then another minute or less under a hose. And a final 10-second spin gets the clean water out. (I choose to spin twice, with a short rinse in between, to use less water.) And the roller is so dry that you can use it right now, or put it in storage and not worry about it.
Working with a paint brush is similar, but takes less time. Just like a roller, if you can't get the water out of a brush, the remaining paint particles will dry into the brush, and you may never get them out. I've been propping brushes up vertically, bristles up, and letting them drip-dry back toward the handle. Needless to say, the bristles closest to the handle get progressively harder with each use. No more !
I am recommending, without reservation, this item to everyone I know who has tried to wash out a brush or roller.
