An ice painting device is provided for use with a source of paint for painting an ice surface. The source of paint includes a source outlet and a closeable valve for selectively closing a flow of paint from the source outlet. The painting device includes a wand for holding by an operator. The painting device further includes a conduit system associated with the wand for transporting the paint. The conduit system defines a passage having a passage inlet and a passage outlet. The passage inlet is fluidically connectable to the source outlet. The conduit system is configured to provide fluid flow characteristics selected so that when the valve is closed, paint is substantially prevented from flowing through the passage outlet. The conduit system is configured to have fluid flow characteristics that are selected so that when the valve is closed paint is substantially prevented from flowing through the passage outlet. The painting device further includes a pad that is positionable immediately downstream from the passage outlet. The pad is configured to receive paint from the passage outlet. The pad has an ice contact face for distributing paint onto the ice surface.
