mybe your post got autocorrected, but he said "communal" not "commercial"....as in, one that can be shared.

at $60 though, they are cheap to just buy.

I agree with Kurt ( who taught me that method first hand)—but beware of one issue: the end of the PVC is hard, and make sure it isn’t pressing on the inside of the fender above where you are trying to roll, or it will simple it out.

I ended up buying a roller off of amazon. Turned out great. Just take your time and go little by little. I did not trust myself with the pvc.
