ABSTRACT:
A paint roller guard attachment for preventing the splattering of paint onto the painter's face and eyes is integrally formed of resilient deformable sheet metal and includes a longitudinally extending tubular coupling section having a bottom longitudinal slot bordered by depending arms each of which is integrally joined at its bottom in an upwardly convex cylindrical inner wing section joining an outwardly concave outer wing section. The lower transverse cross arm of a paint roller releasably engages the guard coupling sections and when the assembly is employed in painting a ceiling the wing members project laterally outwardly to a fully extended position and when employed in painting walls the wings are folded downwardly toward the roller handle and pushed into slots in the handle to retain the wings in retracted partially collapsed condition. Where the paint roller is of the type including an inclined lower arm an adapter is provided with a split tube engaging the inclined arm and a laterally extending tubular section for releasably engaging the guard coupling section.
