Description

ABSTRACT:
A paint roller cleaner, for water based paints, that is inserted through a specially designed paint roller and that is attachable to the standard garden hose with the purpose of cleaning the nap of the paint roller. The structure is made of a sixteen-inch plastic tube with one end closed and the other end with a hose attachment. The first nine inches from the closed side has eight rows of twenty-four one-sixteenth holes, evenly spaced, and a raised handle that keeps the paint roller in place. Structural means are provided for directing the water flow in such a manner that water sprays perpendicularly outward through the holes and through the nap with equal intensity from the top to bottom of the roller.
