Painting over Sandwash

I need to paint over a sandwash (Behr) finish and am wondering if anyone has a recommendation for what nap roller I should use. I don't mind having SOME texture on the wall, so I'm not really concerned with getting rid of the texture. Actually, I'd probably prefer some texture.

Any thoughts?

I recently bought Valspar Venetian Plaster for my family room walls. Can anyone explain how to apply it? The brochure suggests using a trowel, but the person who sold it to me said to use a roller first. Thanks.

I'd like to paint over the furniure that is already painted. I recognize that I should strip the existing paint to get the best result but I just want to paint over. Any suggestions? What type of paint should I use, oil base, glossy, etc.?
