A spray roller system for application of architectural paints coating, includes an extension tube, a spray head mounted on a distal end of the extension tube, and the in-line valve with a trigger mounted on a proximal end of the extension tube, and a roller handle removable mounted on the extension tube adjacent the spray head. The spray roller system can spray and back roll a coating on a down stroke and roll on each up stroke. When the roller handle is removed from the extension tube, it can be used to hand roll sensitive wall areas. With the roller handle removed, extension tube, spray head, and in-line valve can be used as a spray extension to apply coatings in hard to reach areas.

A threaded adapter device couples a liquid compound applicator, such as a paint applicator, to a liquid compound container in a liquid-tight manner, where the liquid applicator and the liquid container cannot be directly joined because they have incompatible screw-on thread configurations, but the threaded adapter device provides threads compatible with the threads of both the liquid applicator and the liquid container, as well as providing a fluid channel from the liquid container to the liquid applicator.

Devices and methods are disclosed herein apply a fluid to the skin of a human or animal, in particular skin bearing hair or fur. The device comprises an array of hair plow elements, each hair plow element comprising a skin contact surface. Device is adapted to apply a fluid to skin and simultaneously lift any hair or fur covering the skin or hair or fur sprouting from the skin away from the skin so that the fluid is applied preferentially to the skin rather than to any hair or fur covering the skin. Additional embodiments of the device are described comprising a transcutaneous electrical stimulator adapted for supplying a current to the fluid and the skin. Methods of use of the device are also disclosed.

The invention is a roller liquid compound applicator configured to attach to the threaded neck of a liquid supply container for the purpose of applying a coating of a liquid compound to a target surface, and includes: a U-shaped roller support frame including a substantially cylindrical dispenser coupling cap and a drip guard attached to the dispenser coupling cap, the dispenser coupling cap having a threaded cavity configured for mating with the threaded neck of the liquid supply container; and a liquid compound roller sleeve secured to the roller support frame.

An applicator (12) has a pistol grip handle (14), a trigger (16), an operative portion (22), a hollow tube (18), an articulating joint (20) disposed in the hollow tube (18) between trigger/lever (16) and operative portion (22), which has a set of separately held jaws (24 and 26) with container (28) and lid (30) disposed thereon. Jaws (24 and 26) movement is controlled by the trigger/lever (16) which is attached to the lower jaw (26) via a cable/cord (40) enclosed within the hollow tube (18). Spring straps (34) control attach the jaws (24 and 26) to the hollow shaft/tube (18).

A coating applicator that applies a coating or liquid to a variety of different substrates having different contoured surfaces is disclosed. A coating applicator of the present disclosure is able to reach, contact, and cover the entirety of a contoured substrate. In this manner, the coating applicator is able to transfer a coating to the entirety of the contoured substrate. Additionally, fluid application systems of the present disclosure include systems for advantageously providing a fluid to a fluid applicator.
