Abstract: A paint cleaner includes a housing, a drain, a cap, and a water conduit. The housing includes a housing wall having a first open end and a second open end opposite the first open end. The drain extends from the first open end of the housing and has a drain opening. The cap includes a cap body coupled to the second open end of the housing, a holder to receive a paint roller cover or a brush handle of a paint brush, and a spinner coupling the holder to the cap body such that the holder is rotatable with respect to the cap body to rotate the paint roller cover or the paint brush within the housing. The water conduit supplies water to an enclosure formed by the housing, cap, and drain and directs the water to the paint roller cover or the bristles of the paint brush.
