Roller sleeve to use for metallic paint?

Hi, I'm painting my downstairs toilet walls with blue metallic paint. I have used a standard roller sleeve but it has left roller marks on the walls.
Can anyone tell me a good roller sleeve to use with this type of paint please? Walls are plastered.
Tight space so 4" roller needed. Purdy nylon sleeve has been mentioned but can't get for love nor money! Can anyone tell me a good alternative please?

    See how he applies two coats and with the last coat still wet rolls everything again in ONE direction. Best of luck!


    If that doesn't work out try a last layer with random all direction brush strokes. It will give some texture, but at least no boring stripes. ;)
