Saw a “professional” painting the other day...

Take a piece of plastic (half a garbage bag will do nicely), and lay it across the roller pan. Push the plastic into the “corners” of the roller pan as best you can-—won’t fit exactly, of course since the plastic is 2-dimensional and the roller pan is 3-, but it isn’t critical. Now you may want to take a bit of masking tape and gather the plastic **outside** the pan at the corners (folding it down over the lip of the pan as you do so). If it it cumbersome, cut off excess ** outside** the pan beyond about 3 inches.

Pour in your paint. And paint. When you are finished, gather the edges of the plastic and whatever paint is left will be in the center of the little “bag” you just made. Hold it over the paint can and cut a slit in the bottom. The excess paint can be reclaimed and your roller pan is already clean.
