Painting a Popcorn Ceiling

Can I paint a popcorn ceiling? The ceiling in a room has the popcorn texturing and I would like to give it a fresh, clean coat of paint. Can I use a large knapp roller? Also, there is glitter embedded in the current paint. How can I give it a fresh coat of bright white and achieve the same effect with the glitter?

Yes, but use an oil-based paint. Be sure not to use a latex paint, which will break down the rough texture. Use a long-nap roller and apply very light pressure to avoid disturbing the textured surface.
