Loading the Large Roller Efficiently

What happens here

To ensure efficient paint application and minimize trips to the paint pan, it's crucial to load the roller nap fully. Submerge the 18-inch roller nap completely into a 5-gallon paint pan filled with paint. Roll it back and forth several times against the pan's grid to ensure the nap is thoroughly saturated with paint but free of excessive drips. The use of an 18-inch nap and a large pan helps cover substantial areas quickly, reducing overall painting time. Ensure the nap is 'fully loaded' but not dripping before lifting it to the ceiling.

Goal: Properly load the paint roller to maximize coverage and prevent mess.
