Introduction

If you want a smooth, professional, bubble-free epoxy or self-leveling floor, there is one tool you cannot afford to ignore—the Epoxy Spiked Roller. Whether you’re a contractor, expert installer, or DIY enthusiast, this roller is crucial for eliminating air bubbles and ensuring a flawless surface.

At Rangi Paint Store, we supply top-quality epoxy spiked rollers designed for both small-scale and commercial flooring applications. Our rollers offer precision, durability, and unmatched performance, making them the perfect choice for Kenya’s flooring professionals.

What Is an Epoxy Spiked Roller?

An Epoxy Spiked Roller is a specialized roller covered with evenly spaced plastic spikes. It is used immediately after spreading epoxy or self-leveling compound to:

• Remove air bubbles
• Prevent pinholes
• Achieve a smooth, even surface
• Ensure proper leveling and bonding

It is an essential flooring tool when working with:
✔ Epoxy coatings
✔ Self-leveling cement
✔ Polyurethane coatings
✔ Resin-based floor systems

How Epoxy Spiked Rollers Work

As you glide the roller over a fresh coating, the spikes penetrate the wet material, releasing trapped air and distributing the product evenly. This simple step dramatically improves the final finish and prevents hidden defects that weaken the floor.

Key Effects of Using a Spiked Roller:

• Eliminates uneven patches
• Removes trapped air pockets
• Reduces chances of cracking
• Enhances surface bonding
• Improves aesthetic and functional quality

Why You Need an Epoxy Spiked Roller

⭐ 1. Eliminates Air Bubbles

Trapped air leads to imperfections, holes, and weak spots. The spiked roller brings all bubbles to the surface instantly.

⭐ 2. Enhances Floor Durability

A properly de-aerated floor resists cracking, delamination, and surface damage.

⭐ 3. Produces a Smooth, Professional Finish

It guarantees a uniform, flawless surface that looks and performs like a professional installation.

⭐ 4. Essential for Self-Levelling Compounds

Without this roller, self-leveling compounds may dry unevenly, forming ridges and air pockets.

⭐ 5. Saves Time & Reduces Material Waste

With fewer errors to correct, the installation process becomes more efficient and economical.

Where to Use Epoxy Spiked Rollers

These rollers are commonly used in:

• Residential epoxy floors
• Garage floor coatings
• Warehouses & industrial floors
• Commercial spaces
• Workshops
• Manufacturing plants
• Decorative resin flooring systems

Wherever epoxy or self-leveling compound is applied, a spiked roller is essential.
