A pro painter told me the best, fastest way to paint a room:
1) cut in around ceiling, don't worry about overlapping onto the wall a bit. Do NOT lose time being fussy. Then roll ceiling
2) paint trim around windows & doors. Focus on good coverage & keeping a wet edge. Overlap onto walls a *wee* bit... again, no extra points for painting in the lines.
3) Cut in wall color along ceiling, doors & windows. This is when you take your time & be fussy. By ONLY cutting in the wall color, no tape should be necessary... cutting in against the ceiling & trim is easy to do freehand. When finished, roll on wall color
