ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a means for separating free flowing paint from lumps in the paint. Towards this end the embodiment of the present invention is a paint strainer screen preferably circular in configuration. The strainer in question, in its simplest form is manufactured from a circular disk of an ordinary wire screen, reinforced at its outer edge with a circular rim. The screen is somewhat smaller in diameter than the opening in the paint can so that it can be readily inserted into the can proper. By means of a stick the screen strainer is forced into the paint which prior to this has been thoroughly mixed with the stick. As the screen moves towards the bottom while being pushed by the stick, the free flowing paint passes through the wire mesh in the screen and collects above it, while the lumps in the paint collect on the bottom of the can under the screen.
