What happens here

After all the cutting-in around the fan is complete, switch to a small roller on the extension pole to fill in any remaining ceiling areas near the fan that were not covered by the main rolling of the ceiling. The video suggests using a 4-inch roller with a 3/8-inch nap, as this size is effective for blending the cut-in areas with the rest of the ceiling. Dip the roller in paint, ensuring it's evenly loaded but not dripping, and carefully roll the paint onto the ceiling around the fan, overlapping slightly with the brush lines to ensure a seamless finish. Once finished, inspect the area for any missed spots or uneven coverage.

Goal: Complete painting the ceiling around the fan for an even finish.
