Paint A Bedroom In 30 Minutes Or Less

Not since the breakthrough of the modern day paint roller by a Canadian inventor in 1940, has there been any great advance in paint applicators or techniques, claims Quickey Painter Ltd.
Prior to 1940, arid for a short period of time thereafter, painting was performed with large brushes. They say it was a thing of beauty to see a group of painters moving down a wall in unison applying paint with these large brushes. Well thankfully for anyone who has ever painted, those days are long gone. Painting is the largest annual DIY and professionally serviced maintenance project worldwide. Globally, between new construction painting and maintenance repaints, 3 billion dollars will be spent every year just on applicators alone.
The challenge in producing professional results, is the "cutting-in" process. That is the ability to get next to trim, ceilings or inside corners of a different color without getting paint on the opposite surface. Professionals undergo extensive training in trade schools and on the job to learn these skills. It takes years of practice to be able to quickly cut in all the features in a room, before the easy part, rolling and finishing, can take place.
Now, another Canadian, Dave Karroll has come to the rescue. The name of his company, Quickey Painter Ltd., provides a hint of the painting help in store for those willing to give it a try. Dave has brought to market the world's first functional RollerBrush, - a mini-roller that cuts in like a brush. The patented paint shield components on the cap of the mini-roller are the key to this product's success. This special QP-RollerBrush(tm) in combination with the patented Quickey Painter(r) 7 position adjustable handle, allows the user to paint an average 10' x 12' bedroom, final coat in less than 30 minutes. And remarkably, this final coat can be performed without a ladder, without a brush and without taping.
Every painting tool takes a little skill. To assist in learning these skills, Quickey Painter Ltd. includes a 5 minute training mini CD with each tool it sells,. The average user will learn the basics in a matter of minutes. The QP-RollerBrush(tm) comes in two sizes - and both the 3" and 5" sizes are useful for various portions of the cutting-in process.
