Toe-screwing at an angle, the tip wants to skate and the wood wants to split. Start the screw spinning in reverse to seat a small dimple, tilt to your angle while still reversing, then flip to forward and drive — it bites exactly where you put it.

Rolling with the frame in your hand wastes paint and wrecks your back. A cheap extension pole gives you leverage to roll ceiling-to-floor in one pass — then back-roll over the section to pick up the excess and redistribute it for even coverage.
