Abstract
A method of and an apparatus for applying a paint, wherein elastic paint-coating means capable of being soaked with a paint are used. The paint-coating means are soaked with a paint and moved along the surfaces of an object to be coated with the paint while being pressed against these surfaces. The paint-coating means are mounted on the main bodies of paint-coating members, which are moved alternately to a first prescribed position where a paint-supplying means is disposed and to a second prescribed position where the object to be coated with the paint is disposed. When the paint-coating members are closed in the first prescribed position so as to hold the paint-supplying means between the paint-coating means, the paint-coating means are pushed against the paint-supplying means so that the paint may soak into the paint-coating means.
