Edge coat applicator question

[macimago]

I remember seeing once an applicator that looked like a knurled rod that spun on a pen mount. Does anyone have a good resource where I can find one?  

 

Thanks all

[ChriJ]

I believe Tandy has them

Thank you all, the one I saw looked more like a rod than the cone that Tandy offers. 

BTW, have anyone tried these?  I was wondering if they work or they are worth it.

I have the flat blade and the cone shape from Tandy.

They both work well and take a little "Finesse" to make a great edge, without Heating the edge afterward.

I now have three tools for edge painting.

Flat blade:    Not bad, highest learning curve.

Tandy roller:    Awkward

Straight roller from RM:     Perfect. Seldom get any paint running over edge. Able to apply a heavier coating per application.
