thought i'd do a quick poll to see who also hates the job!
seems the poll option isn't on my login so perhaps you can reply by saying:

-yes i hate it with passion

-well i don't enjoy it but needs must

-oooh i love it it's so entertaining :evil: (saddoes!)

also perhaps you could add how long it takes you and the method you use.

Thankies all :)

Apart from the "Dandy" and the washing machine....this is the best way we've found to clean them.

VOLUME OF WATER.
Gently bently scrape off the excess first.

1 - Fill sink with water, give a good scoosh round....pull plug.....whilst sink is emptying give a short burst on the roller from the tap.

2 - Fill sink with water, give a good scoosh round....pull plug.....whilst sink is emptying give a short burst on the roller from the tap.

3 - Fill sink with water, give a good scoosh round....pull plug.....whilst sink is emptying give a short burst on the roller from the tap.

Finished
It only takes 3 sinkfulls of water...no need to keep the tap running.

Volume is the key
 
how many on here have a 'dandy'? i'm just intersted to know.
also is that ok putting the roller in the machine?
 
To be honest, i used dislike washing rollers out when i was an apprentice but it is now second nature to me. I do it realy without thinking about. Usualy takes me 3 mins to wash out an roller.
