WINKY ROLL
The Winky Roll is a patented roller designed to visually reveal all defects and irregularities on surfaces to be sanded. Thanks to its contrasting colour, this tool allows you to immediately spot imperfections in fillers before finishing, eliminating unpleasant surprises after paint application. Essential for demanding professionals and homeowners seeking impeccable results.
Technical specifications
- Patented coloured roller for visual detection of surface defects
- Available in 6 colours: Green, Blue, Purple, Red, Pink, Anthracite
- Visual contrast system revealing sanding irregularities
- Suitable for use on smoothing and filling compounds
- Guidance tool for finish sanding
- Compatible with all manual and mechanical sanding techniques
Application tips
After applying your filler and initial sanding, roll the Winky Roll over the entire surface to be treated. The colour contrast immediately highlights insufficiently sanded areas, thick spots, hollows and scratches. Sand only the revealed areas until you achieve a uniformly coloured surface, indicating even sanding.
For optimal results, work under good lighting and change roller colours if treating several rooms consecutively, to maintain maximum visual contrast. The tool integrates perfectly into the workflow between sanding and painting, significantly reducing touch-up time.
The Winky Roll prevents excessive sanding that weakens the filler whilst ensuring no imperfections remain. Particularly effective on large surfaces and ceilings where defects are difficult to detect with the naked eye.

Pro tips
The classic mistake when sanding filler is believing the surface is perfect under workshop lighting, only to discover defects once the first coat of paint is applied. The Winky Roll solves this problem by creating an artificial contrast that simulates the revealing effect of paint. Experienced tradespeople alternate between two roller colours: a first colour after initial sanding, then a second after touch-ups, to ensure no areas have been missed.
Field tip: also use the Winky Roll before filling, on already prepared surfaces. It reveals substrate defects you hadn't noticed, such as poorly sanded old repairs or texture variations. On site, this tool halves the number of return visits for touch-ups, a considerable time saving on large surfaces.
FAQ
How exactly does the Winky Roll work?
The Winky Roll deposits a fine colour film on the sanded surface. Well-sanded areas receive a uniform coat, whilst hollows, thick spots or scratches appear immediately by contrast. Simply re-sand the revealed areas until you achieve a uniform shade across the entire surface.
Which colour Winky Roll should I choose?
Choose a colour that contrasts strongly with your filler: on white or beige filler, go for Blue, Green or Violet. On grey filler, opt for Pink or Red. Anthracite suits very light fillers. Maximum contrast guarantees the best fault detection.
Does the Winky Roll replace raking light for fault detection?
The Winky Roll complements raking light by revealing faults that even the best lighting doesn't always show, particularly on large surfaces or ceilings. It provides objective and consistent control, independent of site lighting conditions, especially useful in Belgium where natural light varies greatly.
Can I paint directly after using the Winky Roll?
Yes, once the surface is uniformly coloured by the Winky Roll, you can apply your paint directly. The fine film deposited does not interfere with paint adhesion. Some professionals even use this coloured layer as a coverage indicator when applying the primer coat.
Is the Winky Roll reusable?
The Winky Roll is designed for extended use on the same site. Simply clean it between uses. To maintain optimal contrast, it is recommended to keep several colours in stock, especially on renovation projects where you work through multiple rooms.
