Chip, I use soft plastic squeegees that have a fine felxible edge. As you know, it takes practice to know when the glass is saturated without being starved. As you have stated already, it comes down to preferences and technique. The soft fine-edged squeegees are generally good for one kayak then I have to toss them out or use them for something else. You are right about the foam rollers, they soak up too much epoxy and, as I have found, introduce too much air. Tipping off with a wider brush, somewhere around 4" or so, works well to move any extra epoxy around, especially along the sides where it tends to sag.
