A paint roller guard assembly includes a paint shield adapted to support a paint roller, and a separate handle having a solid threaded mounting end which is received in a threaded connector portion of a cover mounted on a side wall of the paint shield to attach the handle to the paint shield during use of the paint guard assembly for painting. The handle is removable from the paint shield to permit a water hose to be connected to the connector portion to supply water under pressure to an inner chamber defined by the cover for discharge through apertures formed through the side wall of the paint shield to impact the paint roller causing it to rotate and simultaneously wash residual paint from the paint roller.

In a paint roller apparatus for releasably receiving a paint roller, suspending the paint roller at least partially contained within an enclosure to shield an area adjacent the area being painted from inadvertent dripping or spraying of paint from the paint roller during use, the combination comprising: a paint shield means defining the enclosure; a separate handle; and paint roller mounting means including first and second end caps; said paint shield means including a main body portion having first and second opposing end walls and an elongated wall portion extending between said end walls and having a plurality of apertures therethrough intermediate and extending between said end walls, enclosing means on said wall portion overlying said apertures and cooperating with said wall portion to define an inlet chamber, and connection means formed integrally with said enclosing means and extending outwardly therefrom defining an inlet to said inlet chamber; said first and second end caps being attached to opposite ends of said paint roller and each having a projecting shaft cooperating with said end walls to mount said paint roller axially of said paint shield means for rotational movement about the axis of said paint shield means; said handle having a mounting end releasably received by said connection means to attach said handle to said paint shield means, said mounting end being located to cover said inlet when said handle is in place during use of the apparatus for painting, and said handle being removable from said paint shield means to permit a source of water under pressure to be connected to said connection means to supply water under pressure to said inlet chamber through said inlet for discharge through said apertures to impact the paint roller causing it to rotate and simultaneously wash residual paint from the paint roller.
