Comments about Arroworthy Epoxy-Plus Roller Cover:

I used these covers to apply epoxy primer to my boat's bottom. It's a fiberglass 27'. I could only get 1 coat on 1 side before the foam began to separate from the core. These covers did give nice, uniform coverage before the foam came loose. I purchased another package of covers from a different manufacturer and they worked much better.

Comments about Arroworthy Epoxy-Plus Roller Cover:

Used to apply two-part epoxy primer and two-part polyurethane paint on aluminum mast, boom, spin pole.

Foam covering separates from fiber core. To cover half the circumferance of my 66 foot mast would require 5 covers.

Initially I cut the roller covers in half (3.5 inches) when rolling my boom. I thought this may have caused the problem. However, I got the same failure using a full size (uncut) roller cover on my mast.

I switched to another brand of foam roller cover and was able to complete one full coat on my mast using only one roller cover.

It's possible the curvature of the mast caused the foam covering to creep on the core and that this failure would not occur on large flat surfaces.
