Surface
Smooth surfaces indoors, woodchip wallpaper, slightly structured wallpapers or wooden surfaces. In this case also paper or fabric.

What you need

Paint:
Emulsion paint or latex paint for the walls, acrylic glaze for wooden surfaces, in each case use a basis-colour tone and then another tone for the special-effects.

For the basis-colour tone:

Use the mako wall roller or mako glaze roller.

For the profile roller design:
For the profile roller design use the mako profile roller set (foam roller and a profile roller), or interchangeable pattern roller with diverse patterns and themes

How to do it the right way

1. Apply the basis-colour tone to the wall using the mako roller and let it dry well. (If you plan to paint on paper or fabric this step is often not necessary).
   
2. 2. Dip the mako wallprinting roller sparingly (from the mako wallprinting set) in the special-effect paint and roll it first over a piece of cardboard so that the roller does not drip. (we recommend using a special mako paint container) If you like, you can also put the paint directly on the roller with a brush. Now you can start rolling the wallprinting roller evenly and in one direction on the wall.
But please note: The roller has to move freely, otherwise it will smear.
