ABSTRACT:
A paint roller cover container and extractor assembly which simplifies the cleanup procedures when painting with a conventional paint roller. The container enables the roller cover to be stored therein and a core member is provided to displace the inside cavity of the roller cover. Once the roller cover and core are in position within the container, a small amount of paint or other liquid can be poured therein to saturate the roller cover. A sealing cap is put on the container to enclose it, thereby retaining the roller cover in a condition for reuse. Preferably, the container defines a plurality of radially inwardly deformed annular ribs which enable the container to be squeezed against the roller cover such that it is frictionally engaged, thereby enabling the associated roller handle portion to be withdrawn from the roller cover. The ribs also serve to centrally position the roller cover within the container, allowing liquid to be evenly distributed around the outer surface of the cover. An alternate embodiment is disclosed in which the core member is affixed to or formed integrally with the container.
