Lint Roller

Post by Andrew_Hibberd »

Sorry this is not a web site but i thought it was more relivent here. I have just found that the 99p shop is selling 3 rolls of washable lintroller for 99p. It is 2'' in diameter and almost 4'' wide. Looks really good. I will be using some green on ICant on sunday.

There does seem to be a great lack of this stuff arround, does anyone know any online sources?

I might found a shop where they still sell the old type of Lint rollers. Still not a webshop, but I'll have a look in a soon future and see. Might be able to sell out to you guys if you want some!

I wouldnt trust the epoxy from a pound shop.
Guess what I found in my local pound shop ( well im in bradford so actualy theres at least 20 in the town no lie). LINT ROLLERS!!
I bought one because its a brand im not familiar with but it has 3 massive rollers in each pack. I tried it out and its very very sticky.
Popped it on a wheel to test and it works great.
Now im off to buy 10 packs, wonder what they will think.

they are really thin and flimsy, it took me about 30 minutes (at least) to get it off the roll.
It might be a lil too sticky as I was going down the walls when I tried it out. Be good for std servos.
But the good news is that they are red :lol:
So in other words u sure u want some?

Lol, no. I'm gonna go searching through pound shops in leeds though...how about a competition? Person to find the best type of grip for antweights in a pound shop wins a prize (Marco's providing the prize btw...lol)
