A paint edger apparatus adapted to afford close control over the location of a hard paint edge applied to a surface. The apparatus includes a grasping handle, a rotary guide disc and a rotary paint applicator pad. The centers of rotation of the guide disc and the paint applicator pad are offset from each other. In the preferred form, the handle is formed so as to provide first and second, offset spindles, and the handle includes a backing plate axially adjacent the guide disc. Rotating the handle about its own axis varies the position of the pad relative to the outer edge of the guide disc, and enables the paint pad edge to be moved closer to or farther from a guide surface engaged by the guide disc to precisely position the paint edge.

A paint edger apparatus adapted to position a rotary paint application pad and to control the distance between the outer edge of said paint application pad and a guide surface adjacent a surface to be painted, said apparatus comprising, in combination, a handle having a given handle axis, axially inner and outer ends and a grasping portion adjacent its axially outer end, a generally flat backing plate extending radially outwardly from said handle adjacent said axially inner end thereof, said handle including a first spindle having a first center of rotation and adapted to receive a guide disc mounted for rotation about said given center of rotation, and a second spindle having a second center of rotation and adapted to receive and position a paint application pad for rotation about said second center of rotation, a rotary guide disc mounted on said first spindle, and a rotary paint application pad mounted on said second spindle, said centers of rotation being offset from each other whereby there is a variation in the distance between the outer edge of said rotary paint application pad and the outer edge of said rotary guide disc and whereby rotating said handle about said given handle axis moves said outer edge of said paint application pad relative to a given point on said outer edge of said guide disc, and thus enables a user to cause said paint application pad outer edge to approach or depart from a given portion of said guide surface engaged by said guide disc.
