A remote control operated power painting system. The power painting system includes a power paint tool for applying paint to a paintable surface and a power paint apparatus for supplying paint to the power paint tool. The power paint system also includes a flow control device fluidically disposed between the power paint tool and the power paint apparatus. The power painting system further includes a wireless remote control device for sending a signal to the flow control device to permit or prohibit the flow of paint from the power paint apparatus to the power paint tool. A method of painting a structure with a remote control operated power painting system. The method includes the step of starting a flow of paint through the power painting system wirelessly and applying paint to the structure with the power painting system. The method also includes the step of stopping the flow of paint through the power painting system wirelessly.

A pack comprising: a dispenser for anaerobically curable composition; and anaerobically curable composition held within the dispenser. The dispenser has (a) a reservoir in which anaerobically curable composition is held, the reservoir having an outlet through which the anaerobically curable composition can be dispensed; (b) a dispensing pump for pumping the anaerobically curable composition from the reservoir out through the outlet.
The reservoir and pump together form an airless pump assembly. An applicator with an applicator surface, for example a roller, is in communication with the outlet, the applicator for applying to a substrate the anaerobically curable composition that is dispensed by the pump from the reservoir out through the outlet. The pack provides a convenient way of forming of applying anaerobically curable composition in a thin even layer.

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 fluid transfer assembly comprises a housing for accommodating a fluid. A bellows member disposed in the housing defines an opening therethrough adapted to be in fluid communication with an applicator assembly. The bellows member is adapted to operatively engage the applicator assembly for extension in a first direction and contraction in a second direction. The bellows member seals against the inner surface of the housing during extension and contraction for defining a variable volume chamber with the housing. Expansion of the bellows member in the first direction reduces the chamber volume for generating positive pressure in the housing and forcing fluid through a valve to the applicator assembly. Contraction of the bellows member in the second direction increases the chamber volume for generating negative pressure within the housing for drawing fluid into the chamber.

Hand-held articles for applying lotion to a user, including a user's back or other hard-to-reach places have a housing containing a lotion to be dispensed, and a roller, integral to the housing, that transfers the lotion to a user's body. A spring or pump mechanism pushes the lotion in the housing towards the roller.
