Can anyone on here point me in the direction of some good value 4 inch rollers that last more than a minute or so after contact with styrene? The ones I tried this morning were falling apart before they left the paint tray! albeit basic wilco ones, but what do I need to look for to find longer lasting rollers?

Thanks!

would look at what the resin / glass fibre materials suppliers have to offer . I believe they are nylon, polyester or mohair pile.

What about the people who supplied the flowcoat?

Just incase anyone finds this post in a search for similar information, I found out from elsewhere that the requirements for a good resin/gelcoat/flowcoat roller is Lint free with an acetone resistant core. Might still go floppy after a while but if used and then washed with acetone they should be reusable as well.
