I have Porter Paint Silken Touch paint. After stirring and pouring it in the roller tray, I see tiny bubbles. Even after I let sit for a little while. Then when I roll the paint on the wall, I see these bubbles. If I don't get them out, tiney splotches appear on the wall once it dries. What causes these and how to prevent?

Along that line, what do I look for in a good roller cover?

I'm not sure why the bubble in the can would not be poped once the paints roller out and would ever be a cause for concern.
When the paint hits the wall or ceiling you need to be rolling in a criss crossed direction to over roll the same area more then once which woild level out the paint and pop the bubbles.
If you buy a Perdy brand roller cover there will be less fuzz and it's easyer to clean up after.
