All-in-one paint and primer is growing in popularity, and it’s pretty easy to see why homeowners would be attracted to this type of product as it promises to take a job from days down to hours. In keeping with the demand for this type of paint, Shur-line has a new line of Paint + Primer applicators specifically made for these paints, which are described to be thicker than typical individual paint. The applicators also feature Shur-line’s Hydroglide Technology, which claims to help get the job done 30% faster due to improved paint release and easier cleaning.

The Paint + Primer brushes also have the Shur-load two-tone filament designed to take the guesswork out of how much paint to load on the brush. The Paint + Primer brushes are available from 1.5-in. to 3-in. lengths, flat or angled, and for interior or exterior use. The Paint + Primer with Hydroglide brushes range from $8 to $15, depending on brush size and style.

The Paint + primer roller covers are offered in knit and woven material and are labeled for exterior or interior use. Shur-line offers a variety of nap sizes. Shur-line states that the Shur-fiber knit roller covers offer a signature low-lint blend as well as exceptional paint coverage and transfer, making them ideal for larger areas. Woven roller covers provide smoother finishes and ultra-low fiber shedding.

Also new from Shur-line are an improved Edger Pro and quart-sized paint can lid.
