Questions & Answers about Foam Roller Covers:
2012-10-01A shopper asked: What is the core material of this roller?
+Expand Answers
2012-10-03PAUL PALMER: Well not a chemist, but one who has bought and used dozens of these rollers with both AWLGRIP epoxy primer, AWLGRIP 2 part polyurethane enamels, and Interlux Perfection (2 part Polyurethane), the core is most likely a phenolic resin, as it does not fall apart after hours of use. I would assume that your question has more to do with how well the core holds up to the solvents used in some paints. I have not tested these rollers with Lacquers. Hope this helps.
2012-10-03RICHARD ROSSELLI: I believe they were cardboard core. These rollers work very well with both paint and varnish.
2012-10-03TIM BREWER: The rollers have a composition core. They hold up well to epoxy.
2012-01-12A shopper asked: how many come in a pack?

2012-01-12DAVE CLEMENT: They come in packs of 2, just like it says in the description on the web-site. Love the rollers for spreading varnish before tipping.
2012-01-13PHIL CARMACK: AS I recall there were two rollers in the pack. They did a fine job applying varnish.
Comments about Jamestown Distributors Foam Roller Covers:
I have used better covers 10 years ago, but these were good for about 30 minutes using epoxy, I had to force myself to say stop & change the roller at the first signs of foam separtion.

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Foam Roller Covers:
This is a Great roller cover. I use it for 2-part urethanes. With the paint properly thinned, you can apply a "Very Thin" final coat without "tipping-out" with a brush. The finish is like a fine "spray" with no stipple, no runs; mirror perfect(it takes a lot of practice). The paint must be applied extremely quickly and as "thin" a coating as possible. I wish that these great rollers were offered in a "higher density" foam or thinner nap. They would then be perfect! Recently painted a Porsche!

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Foam Roller Covers:
Great to apply thin coats of Urethane or alkyloid paint. Also for Epoxy Resin Gel Coating in multiple thin layers. Leaves no lint. Only Con is that the core is made of cardboard so these covers cannot be cleaned and reused as the cores fall apart.

Best Uses
Comments about Jamestown Distributors Foam Roller Covers:
Use these rollers to apply Gelcoat , Epoxy Gelcoat, Urethane Or Alkyloid Paints . 1) Apply to just as much area as the roller will "cover" with just a little bit of pressure. 2) Immediately go back over the same area in a prepindicular pattern to the first direction. 3) Immediately "Tip" the rolled area with a wide foam tipping brush. Use a three step pattern with diagonal first, then horizontal , then vertical. Use the tip of the foam brush and very little pressure with your strokes. Brush towards the previously covered area to eliminate "Lap Marks". As the tipping brush gets wet to where it drips when tipping, throw it aside and use a fresh one. Work in the correct Temperature / Surface Temperature / Humidity and at least 6 degrees higher than the dew point, and work FAST, Methodical and Neat and you will get professional results,,, at least as professional as your surface preparation was accomplished.
