Applying Graphite - the trouble begins
About 15 minutes into the 'roll and tip', I started noticing junk starting to show on the surface.  At first I figured it was a few stray bugs (I tack ragged the whole surface with lacquer thinner just before I started so I knew it wasn't just dirt).  Turns out the foam roller was distintegrating.  Do a search for 'foam roller' and 'Home Depot' for the answer.
