First cut in a 2 inch wide strip with a brush around the edges of the ceiling. Switch to a roller (usually 3/8 or 1/2 inch for flat paints) with a 4 - 5 ft extension pole.
Starting at a corner, paint a section about 3 feet square. Use a zigzag pattern, paint a W" pattern on the ceiling, which will disperse the paint on the roller evenly. Fill in this 3 ft section without reloading the roller until you have complete coverage of this section.
Continue to cover the ceiling, working across its shortest dimension in 3 foot square sections, overlapping while paint is wet to minimize lap marks.
