Abstract:
A splatter shield is provided for a conventional paint roller having an offset roller arm integrally connected to a roller shaft, comprising an inner end wall; an outer end wall; and two side walls, all connected so as to have substantially parallel lower edges which define a first plane; a top wall connected to the upper edges of the end walls and side walls so as to define a second plane substantially parallel to the first plane, the inner end wall having an opening therein, the opening communicating with the lower edge of the inner end wall by a cut between the opening and the lower edge of the inner wall, the outer end wall having an aperture for receiving the end of the roller shaft; and an annular shoulder member, fixedly attached to the inner end wall and concentric with the opening, the shoulder member having a plurality of raised ridges, radially spaced about the shoulder member, forming corresponding indentations approximately equal in width to the diameter of the roller arm.
