This is a cleaning device for removing water soluble paint from a paint roller. The roller to be cleaned is shoved over a roller holder which is rotatably mounted in a vertical position in a container such as an open top bucket. A plurality of fan type jets are supported from an inlet water manifold. These fan jets are adjusted in position to direct a thin wall of water essentially tangentially against the paint roller to cause the roller to rotate and to contact every point on the roller.
