paint roller
Cylindrical coating tool
A paint roller is a cylinder covered in absorbent material, mounted on a handle, used to apply paint to large flat surfaces more quickly than a brush.
The roller is dipped in a paint tray and rolled across walls or ceilings: We used a paint roller for the living room walls.
Different nap textures suit different surfaces—smooth for flat walls, thicker for textured surfaces.
