ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing paint from sheet metal gutters having a central ogee portion connected to two straight, vertical portions. The scraper includes a flat blade having an edge whose contour matches very closely the shape of the gutter. In particular, it approximates the exterior configuration of the gutter on a transverse cross-sectional view. The contour, however, has a slightly greater height than that displayed by the gutter; this allows the horizontal extensions of the blade to pass over the upper and lower edges of the gutter to effectuate contact with the gutter's vertical face. Cleaning the upper and lower horizontal surfaces of the gutter then merely requires shifting the blade downward to clean the former and upward for the latter. An extended handle on the blade allows its use by a workman located at some distance from the gutter. To further facilitate its use at a distance from the gutter, the handle may pivot relative to the blade.
