Paint eaves and gutters yourself!

Page 1 of 1
Found this great product at the paint store on the weekend!! We've been painting the outside of our house and I am really hating pulling the ladder around, especially on uneven ground. I found this product called a Painting Buddy on the counter at the paint shop on the weekend. You put your brush in it, and then twist it on to the end of the extension pole, just like you would a roller. We were able to paint all of our fascias on the weekend without having to drag a ladder around the house. I couldn't believe how easy it was!! My dad used to tape his paint bush to the end of a pole, but it was never very successful - it would just fall all over the place. This was perfect! Next weekend we're tackling the gutters!
it still uses a pole?
you wouldnt happen to be the patent owner doing some advertising here, would you?

That would be a pain in the A... have to pull the bush down to apply paint .. nothing but paint dripping from above, down the pole and aching arms IMO.
having very recently painted our entire gutters, fascias and eaves I'd can attest that no matter how well a paintbrush is held on the end of a pole, results are far more accurate and faster from a ladder or scaffold.

Ever tried to cut in with a paintbrush on a 3m long stick? Don't


This product would be good for touch-ups though, and probably needs to be marketed as such.

Update from me! Couldn't find the trimmer - not sure if there isn't one simply because the eave is so narrow. Went ahead with the spring toggles and it all worked out…
