I have a Theiling Compact Rollermat and I have had problems ever since my second roll install. Oh I just love it and it is so simple and works Absolutely fantastic, but the fact is any of the replacement rolls made by any manufacturer are not up to par, as they use-up extremely way, way, to quickly. Anyone that has one knows this! And this probably happens on all other brands of rollermats as well. Most everyone of them are 50 Micron replacement rolls. I have been doing some real homework on DYI replacement rolls. I have found just about the exact same material used on all rollermats (water cooler paper for instance). You can buy a Ultra-Thin Polyester Filter Fleece in 50, 60, 80, or 100 micron and it's "FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1630" for the food industry. 30" wide x 150' foot long fleece and it is $87.09 plus freight say even $100 landed. It is 30" inch's wide ÷ 4 inch's wide cut's (for my size roller) = 7.50 rolls with 1/2 inch extra on one side. Now if I take the 7 rolls that are 4 inch's wide and 150 feet long, then cut into 50 foot lengths. That will mean I will get "21 ROLLS" in total at a cost of $4.76 per roll.. 5 rolls at 6 inch's wide with others.. and so, on and so on. Does anyone do this and why the heck don't they? Instead of being locked into 50 micron you can have your choice of yes 50 micron again (for cheap less the packaging), or 60, 80 or 100 micron... I going to by a roll and cut it 80 micron... Has anyone tried this before? I would like to hear from anyone that has done this or tried to at all.. Thanks
