Abstract

Provided is a paint roller that may include a wire frame and a magnetic shield selectively attachable to the paint roller. The wire frame may comprise a configuration including multiple bends. In an embodiment, the wire frame may include a straight portion, a first bend, a second bend that directs the frame at a 180° angle relative to the straight portion, and a third bend that directs the wire frame at an angle less than the first and second bends. The bends and legs of the wire frame may be positioned in the same plane. The paint roller may further comprise a handle, a roller cage, and a roller cover. The magnetic shield may be selectively attachable to an end of the paint roller. The shield may include a generally circular shaped face that defines a circumference having a slightly smaller circumference than the circumference of the paint roller cover.
