Paint Roller was invented by a man named Norman Blakey in Toronto in 1940. Prior to this, the paint job was done by a professional stucco brush. Blakey was born in Pierson, Manitoba in 1891 and consulted with a textile expert, Tom Hamilton, in Alberta. In an interview with the Globe and Mail in 1984, Hamilton recalled the scene at the time and said that Blakey asked him what kind of fabrics can have hard fluff on the surface. He asked Blakey what he wanted to do. Blakey said, making paint rollers. Then he further explained his idea, using a "7" shaped handle, and mounted a hairy roller on the transverse head.
