Roller Trays – Durable Paint Trays for Smooth, Efficient Application
Our roller tray selection supports a range of painting tasks, from touch-ups and small surface work to full room redecorations and commercial coating jobs. Designed to hold paint securely and allow rollers to be evenly loaded without splashing or pooling, these trays help achieve a uniform finish with less effort. Ridges and angled wells provide effective drainage and loading, allowing rollers to rotate cleanly and apply the ideal amount of paint to each stroke.
Trays are available in a variety of sizes to accommodate different types of application equipment, including mini trays for detailing and standard 9” or larger trays for broad surfaces. Deeper trays are ideal for jobs involving higher paint volumes or thicker coatings, while shallow trays suit lighter tasks or fast colour changes. Anti-slip feet or stabilising features ensure the tray remains steady during use.
For projects involving multiple colours or coatings, using separate trays or liners helps maintain product integrity and prevents cross-contamination. Many trays in our range are compatible with reusable liners or designed with smooth interiors for quick cleaning. Whether working on walls, ceilings, floors, or exterior cladding, our roller trays are a dependable addition to any painter’s toolkit.
From decorating professionals to maintenance teams and homeowners, these tools support consistent results, reduce downtime, and simplify painting tasks at every stage. Explore our full range to find the right tray and accessories to match your roller size, paint type, and project requirements.
Roller Trays FAQs
Can I use the same roller tray for different types of paint?
Yes, but it’s best to thoroughly clean the tray between uses or use disposable liners when switching between different paint types or colours. This helps prevent contamination and ensures your finish isn’t affected by leftover residue from previous applications.
What size tray should I choose for my roller?
Choose a tray that matches the width of your roller. Mini rollers typically require trays around 4–6 inches wide, while standard 9-inch rollers fit best in medium or large trays. Oversized rollers or high-volume projects may benefit from deeper trays with larger surface areas.
Do roller trays work with all types of coatings?
Most trays are compatible with standard paints, primers, and sealers. For thicker coatings or high-build products, opt for trays with deeper wells to hold more material and allow better roller saturation. Always check product compatibility if using with specialist or industrial coatings.
