Power roller

I did a lot of painting last year with a Wagner power roller. Although some people dislike power rollers, I wouldn't consider using a regular hand roller after my experience:

2) Painting is very fast with the roller. On the other hand, clean-up takes longer than when using a hand roller.

Wouldn't use anything else.

After doing some internet research, I chose Wagner. My brother also has a Wagner unit. Both of us have been happy with our choices.

Glidden makes the "goes on pink, dries white" ceiling paint...but in my experience a really good ceiling paint - like Behr - is so white compared to the old ceiling, you won't have any problem knowing where you've painted or whether you missed a spot. I figure if the paint ain't white enough to tell the difference, you've got the wrong paint. Just my opinion.
