Abstract

A fluid spraying gun having a disk-shaped shield positioned adjacent to a spray of fluid at an adjustable angle. The shield has a sharp edge that can roll on a surface for creating a sharp border between an area exposed to spray and an area concealed from spray. The shield also has a rounded rim on a face distal to the spray for sliding along a surface transverse to the surface the edge rolls on, allowing the formation of a sharp border along a corner between the surfaces or the positioning of the spray a set distance from the transversely oriented wall. A lip rings a face adjacent the spray for catching excess spray prior to the edge, a tip of the lip aligned between an orifice where the spray originates and the edge. The shield is connected to the gun via a shaft which can pivot about an axis near the orifice, such that the tip and the edge remain aligned with the orifice at a variety of angles. The shaft may have an adjustable length that maintains that alignment, and the shield and shaft can be used as a guide for positioning the orifice a uniform distance from a surface, in order to uniformly coat the surface with fluid.
