Yes, some batches of rollers are better than other batches, even of the same brand. There is nothing more annoying than a foam folder that starts to delaminate half way through the job. It's a bit of pot luck really. Also, they are not cheap, not here anyway.

Cutting rollers up to make brushes works very well, as long as it is a good roller. A bad roller will leave foam crumbs in the epoxy.

Over the years I seem to get more out of each roller cover. I don't go through nearly as many as I used to.
