The applicator (1) comprises a carrying frame (2, figure 1) for wearing by a user and for supporting a container (13, figure 1) such that a valve (12, figure 1) of the container (13) faces downwardly. A connector (11, figure 1) rigidly mounted to a funnel (8, figure 1) is mounted on the frame (2) for sealable engagement with the valve (12) of the container (13) for receiving material from the container (13) when the valve (12) is in an open condition.
