A paint roller edge shield is pivotally carried on a base plate mounted on a paint roller handle and disposed in a first shielding position immediately adjacent a free end of a rotatable roller and moveable to a second position spaced from the free end of the roller to allow paint to be applied to the roller. The edge shield is pivotally coupled by a hinge to the base for pivotal movement between the first and second positions about a first axis. The edge shield includes first and second portions which are pivotally coupled for rotation of the first end portion relative to the second end portion about a second axis of rotation perpendicular to the first axis of rotation of the entire edge shield. At least one stop is formed between the mating portions of the first and second end portions of the edge shield to limit angular displacement of the first end portion relative to the second end portion of the edge shield.
