Is there an ideal type of roller for putting vinyl matt emulsion on unskimmed
plasterboard ?. I have a couple already, a longish pile one that I got from a
dec merchant and also one of these

You want a good one which requires you need at least one bad one to
compare it with. This has little to do with the amount of nap on the
roller.

Fleecy ones are ideal for roughcast surfaces and artex. Thinner ones
have less spray and give you mre control (in my opinon.)

Then there are the small ones for painting gloss doors and the kinked
handles on the ones designed to get behind stuff.
