It has slices in it to allow it to roll evenly . The secret is to not press ( push on) while rolling. Do not roll too many times in one area( over and over same location) Let ceiling dry . The next day look at it ,have a helper look too,then just go over the places that you missed. P M if you need more info.

I'm really into design, but have decided (along with a designer) that I can put my $4000 into much better use! I know it is the 'TRENDY' thing to do, to remove, but IMO once you have a good design of furnishings....people rarely notice the ceilings. Why not spend your money on some beautiful accessories!
I do like Laurens advice though....will have to look into it! OH btw....I have found that most charge $2.00 sq ft.
