Colour will be similar or not much different - but it will annoy me if i see the previous color - finger cross the mini roller will be the right option and much simpler too! :-) than taking the radiator out

long reach roller? did not think about this - but that might paint the inside of the radiator? Will check the size of the mini roller when off to the shop later! :-) as space between wall and the radiators are between 1 to 2 cms and up to 3 for the third radiator
