Abstract
A pole apparatus for supporting and operating the push button of a spray can. The apparatus includes an elongated pole having a base end and a top end, a body member mounted at the top end of the pole, means for supporting the spray can from the body member, an actuation slide supported by the body member and including an actuation tab for engagement with the push button of the spray can, a biasing member for biasing the actuation slide to an un-actuated position and a cord that extends between the base and top ends of the pole for operating the slide member. The cord is operable by manually engaging the cord and moving the cord orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the pole to move the slide member so that the actuation tab operates the spray can push button.
