A speedy application and uniformity are the keys to successful coverage when you're applying epoxy, paint or varnish to your boat. WEST SYSTEM equipment is customized for the task, making a tedious job easy. The 801-HD Roller Frame ($2.95, www.westsystem.com) is 3 inches wide and accepts all standard roller covers, as well as those cut smaller. The 800 Roller Covers ($4.25) can be cut to narrow widths or into brushes for touch-ups, and can apply many types of coatings. The heavy-duty, flexible plastic 802 Roller Pan ($3.90) allows cured epoxy to be spread out for more working time. Unlike some pans, this one doesn't have to be discarded after one use.
