I like to use those little 6 inch rollers to lay off when I cut in, that way when I roll the ceiling I have heaps of room to blend everything in

Thank you so muuuch ! Seems so obvious but as a novice, my ceiling is already gratefull !

[DaveAppleton]

Yeah great unless you're painting fresh white paint over older white paint then rollering a ceiling is not fun. I've tried using the paint that goes on pink and dries white but that just makes my OCD brain explode.

What if the ceiling is raw plaster with popcorn texture?

[sabrinal]

I thought you are supposed to roll toward the window, not this way??

[ronaldpisani]

My problem is the roof...i always end up with my forearms, neck, back and shoulders in much pain..😔

[storeliftlabs]

Shouldn't you be keeping a wet edge at all times?

[joelc]

When the light hits that ceiling it’s gonna be full of lines

Thats going to frame so bad especially with commercial big picture windows with 100% sunlight hitting it in the am … I never seen a painter roll the edges out 12” then roll it out the cut in you had was good already can you explain why this was your method I’m not knocking it but just from experience it normally leaves the corners darker and on second coat you don’t want to let that cut in dry normally will cut as I roll on big ceilings but it’s no perfect way for big ceilings anything bigger than 10*10 it’s a challenge and have to cut and roll on second coat if I cut whole ceiling roll the perimeter then fill the rest it’ll show darker around edges still just lmk man I’m interested to learn how this works for you especially on high end houses and commercial I’d try it but I’m scared I would have to roll 3 coats if that 12” boarder sets or gets tacky as you know it lifts the pain when laying off in big ceilings you have to roll into the last section and flick out off of it trying to roll into it and roll back out to flick and feather the edge lifts the previous rolled section on huge ceilings so I have to roll back into it and pull off which then the stippling of the roller is essentially different “ especially in big ceilings with nothing but natural light I did one 30* 20 ceiling and 3 coats later still seen where I rolled and flicked off into it so it wouldn’t pull it off I hate painting huge ceiling I’ll spray them anyway though all day 😩😂😤

The real question is, why tf would you paint a ceiling dark blue?
