Butler and Dunne Ltd Irish distributors for fussy blokes roller sleeves

15/10/2026

Ever seen these round dark spots appearing on an insulated wall? 🍄

They can line up with the metal “mushroom” fixings holding the insulated plasterboard in place. Without an effective thermal break, the metal allows heat to escape faster at those points, leaving colder patches inside. Moisture can collect there, trapping dust and sometimes encouraging mould—that’s how those little circles become visible.

Over the years, I’ve tried oil-based stain blockers and shellac, but the marks have returned. The decorating treatment I’ve had the best results with is Crown PX3, followed by an insulating paint and Benjamin Moore Aura Bath & Spa, which is designed for humid environments.

For this job, we used:
🖌️ Two Fussy Blokes Mohair Hybrid sleeve for the PX3.
🖌️ 9-inch, 15mm microfibre sleeve for the Aura Bath & Spa on the walls.
🖌️ 5mm microfibre sleeve for Benjamin Moore Scuff-X on the skirting.
🖌️ Two Fussy Blokes Aqua Glider brush.

This is my experience of controlling the marking. A lasting repair means addressing the thermal bridge itself, including the fixing’s thermal cap or break where appropriate, alongside heating and ventilation.

Have you come across these spots—and what’s worked for you?

STOP pressing your roller into the surface

This drawer is a perfect example.

If you have to put this much pressure on the roller, it’s time to reload it with paint.

Too much pressure can:

* create those tram lines / heavy lines at the edges
* give you a poorer, less even finish
* wear the roller sleeve out quicker
* and, in this case… push the bloody drawer back in

A good roller should do the work for you.

Load it properly, use minimum pressure, lay the paint off nicely and you’ll get a far better finish.

Don’t squeeze the last drop of paint out of the roller — reload it.

What a difference 100 days makes

10,940 press-ups.
10,940 sit-ups.
21,880 reps in total.
A stone and a half down — and absolutely buzzing!

With three kids, two businesses, football coaching, a wife in college and a dog to walk, finding time for myself was always something I’d put off.

So I started giving myself a few minutes a day. At home, fitting the sets in around everything else. Some days felt easy. Other days the last thing I wanted to do was another press-up. But I kept coming back to it.

Those little efforts added up. I feel stronger, fitter and proud that I stuck with something for myself.

If you’re looking at this thinking you couldn’t do 100 days, start with today. Start with what you can manage. You don’t need to match my numbers — just give yourself somewhere to build from.

I’m carrying on, with a rest day each week. This has become a habit I want to keep.

We give so much time to everything else. Give a little back to yourself. You’re worth the effort.

DAY 100.

Absolutely buzzing today. I genuinely can’t wait to get that final set done.

100 days sounds like a massive commitment — and it is — but the actual exercise only takes me 5–10 minutes a day.

That’s the whole point of this challenge.

If you’re busy, working, running around after kids, football training, walking the dog, whatever it is… it can be very hard to find time for yourself.

I’m in my mid-40s, I run two companies, coach football, my wife is in college, we’ve three kids and a dog that needs walking. There’s always something going on.

But you have to try and give yourself 10 minutes.

Over these 100 days, without going mad on the diet and with basically just these few minutes of exercise every day, I’ve lost a stone and a half.

More importantly, I’ve proved to myself that I can stick at something every single day.

If 100 days sounds too much, do 30. Do 50. Just start somewhere.

I’m definitely carrying it on after today, but I’m giving myself one day off a week. No set day — if I’m wrecked, hungover, away, whatever, that can be the day off.

Look after yourself.

Everybody can find 10 minutes somewhere.

Give yourself 10 minutes a day. You’re worth the time.
