    So what kind of ones does everyone use, short medium long pile, specific fibre types or literally cheapest ones in bulk?

    I buy the foam Wolff ones from Mario, and keep them in the plastic container. They seem to last for ages, and for primer i must get a 1000m out of them.
    Been doing loads of dpm lately, and still use the Wolff ones, but not the foam.
    I like them because you can get really close to the edge, because the frame is only on one side.

    Short or medium pile
    Go through to many so cheap ones
    Also use mini roller for tight spaces and to get close to the skirts with DPM

    I use a 12 inch roller frame and never been able to find a foam one that big, have heard they are better to be fair, have used low fluff ones and they dint seem to hold alot of primer in them to get the slab a proper drink, whilst a long pile one has been flicking recently, I guess a medium pile is way forward to get a best of both worlds, I try and read the I fo though as you can get different rollers that look the same but apparantly perform better on different surfaces

    Dpm melts the foam ones, but I find them great for primer.
    I think the foam ones are 9"
