Hi,

has anyone bought any of these? I've seen them on ebay. They fit a
roller on the end of a drill and spin the excess paint off. There's
another one for paint brushes. Are they any good? Do they do what they
say?

The instructions say to use an old drill to spin the roller over a
dustbin. Why an old drill? Does the paint splatter everywhere? Is it
just to keep the paint off your shiny new drill? If so, I guess I'll
either need to design some spray guard or buy a cheap silverline or
aldi drill.

TIA

Fiddly but effective. Don't do it in the sitting room but outside or
in the garage is OK. Bucket of clean water and a cardboard box to spin
it in is pretty clean. I've nevew worried about the drill.

Having said that, SWMBO is more enthusiastic then me :-)
