Abstract

A conventional roller-type paint applicator, having a head surfaced with a paint-retentive material, is modified for use with a thickened paint to produce a textured pattern on a substrate by a sleeve which fits over the existing head. The sleeve, optionally in conjunction with the existing surface of the head, defines a plurality of receptacles for thickened paint which are arranged to determine a desired pattern of paint on a substrate.
