I agree with the comments on 3/8 vs 1/8, having found out on my Arctic Tern the hard way. I purchased the 1/8 rollers at a marine supply store, which carried epoxy products. Try sawing them in half (with a fine-toothed saw) and using a short roller base. It will save a little on the rollers, plus be easier to handle than a full size roller.
