   I always wondered if a pump sprayer would work, assuming you don't have a spray outfit.  Get it on, even it up brushing it out maybe.

   It's going to be kinda of a messy job regardless of which application method you use. If you're brushing, use a block bristle brush- they hold more stain and don't drip as much. Use plenty of drop cloths and plastic to protect areas you don't want stained. No easy way around it.

   Son and I wore rain coats when rolling it on.  Didn't get too messy.  Still scraping off the specs from my glasses, though.

   I never met a tool I didn't like!

   Used a roller with a solid stain last week on a shed I rebuilt.  I brushed in the grooves while my son used a roller (3/8" nap) with a 6 foot extension.  Worked well.  But we were on the ground, for the most part (peak was about 15 feet up.)  Make sure you coat ALL surfaces.  I took the time to do the edges, even under the door.  And I used an oil based stain.  Don't know if it will aid in protecting the T1-11 any more, but figured it couldn't hurt, either.
