I'm painting my 28' hull with Pettit "Easypoxy". Following the
directions and using the recomended foam roller and brush for cutting
the areas close to corners.

I didn't like the stroke mark's from the brush over my rolling texture
or the thicker lines of paint from the roller edges.

While at Home Depot, in the paint section I found a miracle roller.
It's a 8" by 1" diameter ultra-fine foam roller with a rounded end like
the end of a broomstick. The other end tword the roller handle also has
rounded corners.

This worked fantastic! No lines on ither side of the roller and it cut's
corners and tight spots better than any brush.

If your painting your boat you have to use this tool. You'll go along
MUCH faster and have a better job when you're done.

Remember to thin the paint.

Good luck and don't be scared, it's easy.
