Abstract
A wallpaper preparation device including a tray having a length and defining a reservoir for receiving a fluid for application to wallpaper. A roller rotatably carried by the tray and extending into the reservoir. A retaining member having opposing ends engagable with engagement features formed in opposing ends of the tray on a first side of the roller. The retaining member extends the length of the tray parallel to a surface of the roller with a gap therebetween, for holding the wallpaper against the roller. The retaining member is adjustable to increase and decrease the gap, thereby decreasing and increasing a frictional force between the wallpaper to be prepared and the roller.
