Painting....(walls)

I'm new to this. I've painted a bedroom, 1st coat yesterday. I'm doing another coat today. Question is - do I need to "cut in" again? I can clearly see where I've done it for the first coat.

Yes you do, but if you can see where you've used a brush then you probably had too much paint on the brush especially if you can see the brush strokes. What I do around light switches etc is use a small brush and then go over it lightly with a very small roller.

Thanks. I'm painting textured wallpaper (don't ask...) so it was quite difficult to cover without getting too much paint on the brush.
