ABSTRACT:
A paint roller particularly suited for texture painting and comprising a cylindrical core and a pile fabric covering secured to the cylindrical core, said pile fabric covering comprising a backing fabric and pile yarns interengaged with said backing fabric and extending from one face thereof to form a pile comprised of a multiplicity of upright pile loops, the density of the pile loops and the size of the pile yarns forming the loops being such as to render substantially the totality of each loop readily visible and to provide substantial void volume within the pile of the fabric for receiving and holding paint therein, said pile yarns each comprising a multifilament core and a polymeric coating forming a continuous sheath about the core and presenting the appearance of a monofilament pile yarn, said multifilament cores and sheath coatings cooperating to provide such flexural properties to the pile loops that the loops normally extend in a self-supporting, upright orientation from the backing fabric and are resiliently urged to such upright orientation upon the removal of pressure applied to the surface of the pile fabric, and wherein the flexural properties of the pile loops permit readily moving the pile loops from the upright orientation toward the flattened position upon pressure being applied to the pile surface during painting and thereby facilitating release of paint from within the pile.
