ABSTRACT:
The paint brush cleaning device includes a housing with an open top and removable lid, a bottom drain and a mounting to hold paint brushes passing an opening in the lid down into the housing's central space which has brush cleaning liquid therein. A pair of rotatable cleaning rollers bracket the paint brushes in the central space. The rollers preferably are powered by an electric motor connected to the housing. A number of spaced upwardly directed jet nozzles are disposed in the central space for directing streams of cleaning liquid under pressure against the hard to clean heel areas of the paint brushes. An impeller pump may be connected to a manifold in the central space, from which manifold the jet nozzles extend. Two pairs of rollers may be used, with the members of each pair disposed vertically relative to each other and over which a continuous sheet may be trained. The sheet bears cleaning bristles and/or fingers. The device is simple, durable and efficient.
