so let's get wet. take your roller here andstart rolling it back and forward into the paint. now you're going to notice there'sgoing to be a side which is not going to want to get as painty as the other. sometimes imean it's really great to lift it up, kind of go really deep and then come back over.cause that'll help. and then i start, there you go. now you want the brush to be wet.at the same time, you don't want paint to be dripping off it, which is why you usually,painting trays will have these grooves which will help get a nice even, yet still thickcoat on your painting roller. ok, next stop, african savannah. take your roller and goup and down. and start making some v shapes. see how i'm going up and down at first? butthen i come back down and then look whoom,
i go over in a v shape. i go over in anotherv shape. this'll help spread out the paint at your edges. make sure to get a nice solidcoat on it. as soon as you start seeing the paint get a little thin, like see how that'sgetting thin over there? at that point, then it's time to go back to our painting trayand get more paint and load up again. but you want to make sure you get a nice thickcoat on, especially for the first time. because if you get a situation where you see a lotof this after the paint's dried, it means you've got to go over another coat, and that'snot a whole lot of fun. i tend to want to apply a nice thick first coat, half the timewhich then you can avoid having to put on a second coat.
