  • Publication number: 20070018066
    Abstract: The present invention is a painting accessory which is adapted to hold a wet paintbrush, holds touch-up paint, attaches to a standard sized paint bucket, attaches to a standard sized roller tray, or may be hand-held. It includes an inner curved surface and an outer curved surface which straddle a side of a standard sized paint bucket, securely attaching to the paint bucket. It includes a lid which seals the wet paintbrush and touch-up paint so that one may stop painting for a short period of time, and resume without the necessity of cleaning the brushes and pouring the paint back into the paint bucket. It reduces the amount of drying that would otherwise occur.
