ABSTRACT:
A paint applicator comprises a frame with a flat side which carries an absorbent pad; the other side of the frame supports a handle. The axles for a pair of rollers depend from a hinged mount supported on the handled face of said frame; the axles are parallel and are inclined toward one margin of the frame. The angle of the hinged mount with respect to the frame is adjustable. The rolling face of each of the rollers have a circumferential groove and the edge of the rolling distal from the frame has a circumferential flat surface which converges toward the axle of the roller in a direction away from the frame. The applicator may be used to edge the paint on a surface adjacent a narrow moulding with a bevelled corner by positioning the applicator so that the pad is against the edge of the surface with the grooved rolling face cupping the bevelled edge of the moulding. The incline of the rollers may need to be adjusted to achieve this. The applicator may then be moved along the edge of the first surface with the rollers rolling on the bevelled edge. With a wide moulding, the flat surface of the rolling face of the rollers abuts the moulding and, again, the applicator may then be moved along the edge of the surface. In another embodiment the roller axle mount is a fixed angle with respect to the frame.
