The small rollers. When the job is a 4 in wide tab, a patch behind a bulkhead or a corner a full size roller cannot reach, this is the tool that gets air out of the laminate instead of pushing it around. All-aluminum heads, so acetone cleans them and they come back for the next layup.

  • All-aluminum roller head, no plastic core to soften in solvent
  • Threaded handle accepts a standard extension pole
  • Diameters from 1/4 in through 1 in, widths from 1 in through 7 in
  • For consolidating narrow tabs, patches and detail areas
  • Cleans up in acetone between batches

Match the roller width to the tab width. A roller wider than the tape will ride the dry substrate and drag resin out of the laminate instead of working it in.

Fiberglass Roller

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.
