ABSTRACT:
A shield to prevent splattering and dripping of paint for a paint roller, such a paint roller being conventional using a nap type of a roller which is rotatably mounted upon an offset handle. The shield comprises a center part to which is hingedly secured front and back sections. Elastic bands are employed on each end of the housing to hold together the front and back sections to the center part when in operation. Also, the elastic bands function to connect the shield to the paint roller structure. In the shielding position, the housing surrounds the paint roller to intercept the paint spray. When the roller is removed from the painted surface, the shield is free to pivot to catch droplets that would otherwise fall to the floor. An adjustable adaptor assembly is employed on each end of the housing to permit the shield to be employed with rollers of different nap thicknesses. A roller assembly is connected to both the front and the back parts so that the device, when in use, will low frictionally roll on the surface to be painted thereby not permitting the shield itself to come into contact with the painted surface.
