: I used a roller for the first time to put a coat of epoxy on my hull last
: night and I couldn't help getting a lot of bubbles. I thought I brushed
: them out afterward, but looking at it this morning there are a lot of fine
: bubbles or bumps so that the surface looks textured, not shiny like I am
: used to. Is this normal? Do I have to sand out those tiny bubbles/bumps?
: The roller I used wasn't foam as recommended by several people, but the
: guy at the fiberglass store said it would work fine for epoxy. Would a
: foam roller work better or should I do the final coats with a brush?

I used a foam roller and it worked well when you tipped it out with a foam brush afterwards. Did you use a roller that was more like a paint roller with almost a furry surface? Or a bumped roller designed to push the resin into the coth (useful for heavy glass or maybe mat applications)?

Was this the first coat or a fill coat?
