Abstract
A pressure fed paint roller includes a paint roller shield and handle, a paint roller mounted for rotation within the shield, and a two-piece floating manifold positioned between the top of the shield and the roller. The manifold has a concave paint spreading surface with a row of spaced discharge openings from which paint is discharged under pressure onto the roller surface. An adjustable resilient loop connected between the manifold and the shield urges the manifold toward the roller so that this paint spreading surface engages the paint roller and forces the paint into the outer covering of the roller without impeding rotation of the paint roller.
