After I cut in a room, can I wait 4 hours to roll the walls?

I was told that after you cut in a room that you had to roll the walls before the cut in paint drys, is that true?

  1. Yes, it is generally recommended to roll the walls after cutting in while the paint is still wet or fresh. This helps to blend the brushed areas with the rolled areas seamlessly, creating a uniform finish and avoid picture framing, a visible difference between the rolled and brushed paint. A true answer depends on the paint (manufacture and quality), sheen and color. The color can really affect how a paint works. Dark or “true” colors will be affected more that light off white colors. A flat sheen will be affected most as it dies faster.
