A three pack of small rollers for detail work. Patch repairs, narrow tabbing and tight corners chew through rollers fast, and once resin starts to gel in the grooves the tool stops consolidating and starts smearing. Having three at the bench means you keep working instead of stopping to clean.

  • Three detail rollers per kit
  • Sized for patches, narrow tabs and corners
  • For epoxy, polyester and vinyl ester laminates
  • Rotate as they load up, clean the rest in acetone afterward

Match the roller to the width of the laminate you are working. Anything wider drags resin off the tape and onto the substrate, which starves the joint you are trying to build. Keep one roller soaking in acetone, one on the bench and one dry, so the next tab never waits on a cleanup.

Use a metal or paddle laminating roller to compact the laminate and drive out trapped air after you wet out the glass, which prevents weak, bubble-filled spots. Reach for a corner roller on inside corners, a radius roller on curves, and a detail roller in tight areas. Wet out first with a chip brush or squeegee, then roll until no more air bubbles rise.
