Abstract
A paint removal device that allows for the removal of excess paint from a paintbrush for cleaner and more efficient painting. The paint removal device contains an attachment member to allow for the device to be secured to a lip of a paint can, and a removal member that includes a pair of arms extends laterally away from the clip portion. When attached to a paint can, the paint removal member is positioned to allow for a painter to draw the paintbrush against the side of the arms of the paint removal member to remove the excess paint from the paintbrush bristles after inserting the paintbrush into the paint supply.
