The shroud is spaced from, and surrounds the area of the brush lying, above the bristles from which drips and smears of paint could have reached the handle. The shroud is integral and unitary with respect to the handle, either by being moulded in one piece with the handle or by, being moulded separately and bonded onto the handle. The seamless joint between shroud and handle is simple to make very effective to, prevent drips reaching the handle and does not interfere with normal, usage of the brush.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 26, 1994. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 26, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 26, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
