Abstract
A paint tray and liner kit is provided. The kit includes a paint tray having a female receptacle, a liner having a sloped surface for rolling a paint roller over the sloped surface, a paint well for receiving paint in the paint well, and ribs for facilitating paint distribution over the paint roller when the paint roller is rolled over the ribs. The liner is removably received in the female receptacle of the paint tray. The liner is sufficiently flexible such that the paint well of the liner is invertible without perforating the paint well by application of hand force to the paint well, and the ribs are invertible without perforating the ribs by application of hand force to the ribs.
