Wooster Brush Paint Rollers, Frames & Trays

Wooster Brush: A Legacy Built on Roller Innovation

Wooster Brush has been engineering professional-grade painting tools since 1851, and nowhere is that depth of expertise more evident than in their paint rollers, frames, and trays. As the company that pioneered synthetic fabric roller covers — a technology now considered an industry standard — Wooster brings more than 170 years of hands-on innovation to every product in this category.

Roller Covers Engineered for a Flawless Finish

Wooster roller covers are defined by their shed-resistant fabrics and water-resistant polypropylene cores, making them durable enough for multiple wash-and-reuse cycles without degrading performance. Iconic lines like the Super Doo-Z® — widely regarded as one of the most imitated rollers in the industry — feature dense, shed-resistant white fabric that delivers a smooth, lint-free finish across flat, satin, semigloss, and gloss paints, as well as enamels and varnishes. The Super/Fab® and Pro/Doo-Z® families extend these capabilities with FTP® (Fast Transfer Paint) technology for high-capacity coverage, while the Golden Flo line offers knit fabric covers in a range of nap depths (3/8", 1/2", and 3/4") to match any surface texture, from smooth drywall to rough masonry.

Roller Frames That Hold Their Ground

Wooster entered the professional roller frame market in the early 1990s and quickly established a reputation for reliability. Their flagship Sherlock® roller frame features a quick-release spring that prevents the cover from slipping mid-stroke while still enabling easy, one-rap cover removal — no hand contact needed. Smooth-rolling internal bearings minimize shank wear and eliminate streaking. For large-surface applications, the oversized Big Ben® frame handles 18" covers, and the Wide Boy® frame adjusts from 12" to 18". Compact jobs are served equally well by the Jumbo-Koter® mini-roller system, which is engineered for trim, doors, and tight spaces.

Trays and Buckets Designed for Real Jobsite Efficiency

A well-designed tray is more than a paint holder — it is a workflow tool. Wooster's tray and bucket lineup reflects that philosophy. The Sherlock® Bucket Tray is a hybrid design that functions as both a bucket and a roller tray, with a built-in 14-inch wide roll-off grid for consistent paint loading and side handles for easy transport when filled. Wooster's standard metal trays are solvent-resistant and built with ribbed roll-off areas and stabilizing legs. For fast cleanup, disposable tray liners fit many Wooster tray models and allow paint-free removal in under a minute, significantly reducing downtime between coats or colors.

American-Made Quality from Start to Finish

Every Wooster roller, frame, and tray is manufactured in Wooster, Ohio, under strict quality control standards. From the roller fabric and polypropylene cores to the frame cages and tray materials, the entire supply chain is tightly managed to ensure consistency. That commitment to domestic manufacturing means each product meets demanding performance benchmarks before it ever reaches a painter's hand — whether that painter is a seasoned professional or a first-time DIYer.
