Strip: Help! Need quick advice on epoxy fill coat

Well; I've just wet out the glass on my hull, and am very happy with the results. Here's my problem though... I had bought some West foam rollers for the fill coats, and when I went to get them I learned that my wife used them to paint the bathroom!!!! Yikes; I have no idea how to apply fill coats now which should start in 4-6 hours. Has anyone had any sucess with regular paint rollers? Foam or nap? I'm assuming my best bet here is to buy the best quality low nap rollers I can and try those? Any help would sure be appreciated.

Thanks,
TO
