You might consider a power roller instead. They used to make a "cheap" version which had a switch with just 2 settings for the pump, slow and slower. It is used to fill the roller head with paint. Roll, press button, roll, press button.

This is not the expensive floor unit which holds a whole can of paint. And yes, the unit is a little bit of a pain to clean, it can be done. I painted my entire apartment building (4 story walkup) inside and out with a roller unit.

edit: the unit I'm talking about is battery powered with 4 "D" batts

The one I used was this: Wagner 949 Pow-R-MAX
