Abstract
An apparatus for cleaning both the interior and exterior of a paint dispensing roller that has a water inlet attachable to a faucet with a one-way valve to prevent reverse water flow through the inlet, a first water outlet from which water is supplied through a conduit into the inside of the roller flushing it clean, and a ring holding the roller having a second water outlet communicating with the water inlet to supply water to clean the exterior of the paint roller. The ring snugly fits around the roller in order to hold it in place, and also functions to wipe the water from the roller.
