ABSTRACT:
A cleaning device which washes each of the components of a paint sprayer from the correct angle to ensure that all residue is properly removed. The invention provides a mechanism for aligning cleaning nozzles with the components of the paint sprayer. Holding devices precisely position components of the paint sprayer such that they align the components to be cleaned with adapters happening solvent spray nozzles. Each holding device is aligned with individual spray nozzles that spray cleaning fluid onto surfaces from which paint is to be removed. Adjustable spray nozzles are provided which allow the cleaning device to be adjusted such that the it can be used with paint sprayers having different configurations. An alternative embodiment provides a kit assembly that can be retrofitted to a conventional cleaning machine. Alternatively, the device may be used with other tools which are disassembled prior to cleaning.
