How to paint with a roller
Painting with a roller is an easy and efficient way to paint your walls. We'll show you how to finish the job in no time at all.
For Best Results:
Start with BEHR ® paint that has been stirred so any color that may have settled is completely incorporated.
A properly loaded roller should not drip when moved and does not require you to apply force against a surface when painting.
Tools & supplies
- BEHR® Paint
- Paint Tray

Step-by-step process
Step 1
Grab your tools.
Step 2
Pour the paint into the tray.
Step 3
Dip your roller into the paint. Make sure the roller is completely saturated. Roll it up and down on the tray to remove any excess paint.
Step 4
Roll a “W” on the wall with the roller, filling the empty spaces in a top to bottom motion. This will help place an even distribution of paint onto the wall. Repeat this until you have completely covered the entire wall.
Step 5
Once your wall is completely painted, apply a second coat for even better coverage.
