I'm no expert on projector repair but when I do a complete roller cleaning as you describe I will use a light coating of synthetic oil on the roller base.

Hi Jeroen

I agree with Wayne & suggest a tiny drop of light sewing machine oil to be applied to the rollers.
A dry roller may well get sticky due to friction so try oiling them to see if that fixes it.
