ABSTRACT:
The device comprises a flat, disc-shaped main body 10 having cleaning apertures 11a,b,c, and d located thereon. Cleaning apertures 11a,b,c, and d have diameters suitably smaller than the outside diameter, including the nap covering, of various popular roller sizes and nap thicknesses, such that a friction fit between the nap covering of such a roller and a cleaning aperture 11a,b,c, or d is provided. Four access notches 12a,b,c, and d extend from the circumference of cleaning apertures 11a,b,c, and d respectively, to the circumference of main body 10. To operate the device is placed over the handle end of a roller, with the wire portion of the handle passing through one of the access notches 12a,b,c, or d and into the center of one of the cleaning apertures 11a,b,c, or d. The device is then drawn down over the nap surface of the roller, and the friction fit between the cleaning aperture 11a,b,c, or d and the nap surface of the roller acts to wipe paint or solvent from the roller.
