Few years ago I painted with BM regal & aura.

I heard the professional use aura and it is also higher grade/more expensive, but I think the regal is much more forgiving for DIY painter.

The Aura dries so damn fast you barely have any time to roll back. The work time is like 2-3 minutes.
(I.e. if you try to roll back on a wall to even out the paint you only have a few minutes to do it because the paint start becoming tacky and you end up with lines & different texture to the rest)
