I've seen those before, that's a good idea.

I guess there is the old standby wall "painting" method that doesn't require a paint brush or roller, just a bucket of paint and a handful of cherry bombs...

Yeah, that's really important, especially with oil-based paints.

It's also better to do a few layers with not a lot of paint rather than a couple thick ones, as that's when you start to see lines. That and allow for a decent period between coats.

It just got me thinking about something, not so much that I was referring to something in your post. Though I should clarify - I personally would not use those sponge things. If you use the roller properly, it should be all you need.

That and make sure to have a few replacements handy, as it's best not to keep one around for too long and give it a chance to deteriorate.

aluminum foil and a freezer. give it about an hour to dethaw and you'll never have to buy more than one roller per room.
