how do you clean your wool daubers?

ha, allen, you are basically living closer to where i live than the rest of the folks around here... :) about the foam rollers, do you have any trouble with paint spilling/flying off (like when you are painting the walls)? also do you just dip them into the paint or do you use a shallow plate or something?
after watching the tandy video on dyeing with eco flow color i tried using the foam part from dish cleaners as well, however my results were... not that good.might have to try again.

The roller works well , I use flat plastic disposal containers that quick heat up foods come in , the roller absorbs a lot of dye , no splashing at all , I rinse the roller in paint thinners but after awhile you will need a new one.

I keep in them in a zip lock if I'm going to be using them again soon. If not, I usually rinse them in a little acetone then bang then on the edge of a trash can to dry. Gets almost all the dye out of them, but I still only use them with their original color. Either bagged or acetone, I get a lot of use out of one.
