Begin by moving furniture out of the way or covering it with drop cloths to protect from paint splatters.
Thoroughly clean the walls using a damp cloth or sponge to remove dust, dirt, and grease for better paint adhesion.
Apply painter's tape along edges, trim, and ceiling lines to ensure clean, sharp paint lines.
Pour the chosen wall paint into the paint tray and load the roller by rolling it into the paint, then offload excess on the tray's ridges.
Start at the top corner of the wall and roll downward with gentle pressure, ensuring even coverage without drips.
Use a W or M pattern to distribute paint evenly and avoid streaks, filling in the gaps without lifting the roller.
Work in small sections, about 3-4 feet wide, blending each section into the previous for a seamless finish.
Re-dip the roller as needed, but avoid overloading to prevent drips and uneven paint application.
Before the paint dries, carefully remove painter's tape to prevent peeling or smudging the fresh paint.
Clean your roller, tray, and brushes immediately after painting with water (for latex paint) or paint thinner (for oil-based paint).
Allow the first coat to dry completely, then assess if a second coat is necessary for full coverage.
Ensure proper ventilation during drying and clean up the workspace once finished.
