Floating Grid Keeps Things Clean

Floating Grid Keeps Things Clean FARM SHOP Painting The Floating Grid is especially useful for painting and cleaning ” says Jerry Budde co-inventor of the Floating Grid “The screen floats on top of whatever liquid you’re using ” The Floating Grid comes in two different sizes One is 10-in across and fits in a 5-gal bucket The smaller grid is 5 4-in across and fits in a 1-gal bucket “When you’re cleaning the Grid will keep your rag on top of the solution so you don’t have to go digging for it at the bottom of the container ” Budde says “When you need to get a rag wet just push the grid down into the solution and get it wet “Once you wring it out and finish cleaning throw it back in the bucket and the Floating Grid keeps it on the top ” he says “All of the dirt and grime will fall through the grid to the bottom ” The Floating Grid is also a big help for painters because they can say goodbye to those clumsy metal paint pans “Just place the Grid on top of the paint take your roller and push down on the Grid to get paint on it ” he says “When it comes back to the top roll it again so the correct amount of paint gets on your roller ” The Grid will also clean the edges of a roller so there’s no dripping and it doesn’t leave lines on a wall “When you’re done painting for the day leave the Grid in the can put the paintbrush on it if the level is low enough and put the lid back on the can ” Budde says “That means no cleaning is necessary ” The inspiration for the Floating Grid came when Budde’s partner was painting with someone who had a homemade version of a grid in a paint can “It was sort of a foam wreath that he put a grid on ” Budde says “My partner asked if his friend was going to do anything commercially with the idea He said no so we got permission to run with it ” The Floating Grid is made of durable plastic and works in all kinds of cleaning solvents and solutions no matter how harsh It’s a polypropylene plastic that won’t break down in those solutions The Floating Grids are available at probuddyproducts com or on Amazon The company is looking to find more distributors in the future The five-gallon Floating Grid is $9 95 while the one-gallon is $4 95 The combo package with a five-gallon and one-gallon grid is $12 95 FARM SHOW Followup Jerry Budde Pro Buddy Products P O Box 41687 Des Moines Iowa 50311 ph 515-280-5234; info@probuddyproducts com; www probuddyproducts com
