Is it worth saving the paint? #paintingtools #tools #coolstuff #paintroller #paint #cooltools

What happens here

Dip the securely attached paint roller into a bucket containing either leftover paint (if you plan to save it) or clean water for an initial rinse. Submerge the roller fully and rotate it briefly within the liquid to loosen some of the dried or wet paint. Then, use the built-in squeegee or scraping mechanism on the blue cleaning tool to firmly press and scrape off excess paint from the roller, allowing it to drip back into the bucket. Repeat this scraping motion several times, moving up and down the roller, to remove as much bulk paint as possible before the final flush.

Goal: Remove bulk paint from the roller using a bucket and scraping tool
