I know exactly what you're moaning about, and I'm still only on the undercoat!

Using a roller, now theres an idea my fingers might apreciate...

i used a foam roller which did work well and i got a better finish on the undercoat but the rollers last about 5 minutes because the steel edges tear them apart.

Mightn'y be so bad on mine, used the messy black steel with the rounded edges. Nightmare to keep clean/rust free, but means everything is nicely rounded!
