Applicable paint bucket have structures which provide for a secure placement of the insert where the insert remains in a proper operational orientation during a painting session. The insert has a paint contact area with an upper portion thereof retained at an angular orientation somewhat offset from vertical when installed in the applicable paint bucket. This arrangement provides for the user to stand upright during use of a paint roller with an extension handle. In this manner the painter is constantly in a comfortable stance during painting. In the preferred embodiment the insert has securement structures which extend outward on opposing sides of the paint contact area at the upper extent.
