(under the class definition) Implement wherein the tool* and supply-means* are combined in a unitary device and are movable with respect to each other for transferring coating material from a first position, wherein a work-engaging portion of the tool may receive the coating material from the supply-means, to a second position, wherein the entire tool is spaced from, and out of communication with, the supply-means, for engaging the work surface and applying the coating material thereon.
(1) Note. A patent for a device wherein the applicator*, which is initially in a concealed position in communication with the coating material, is disconnected from the implemented and reconnected in an exposed use position out of communication with the material will be placed in this subclass.

21, for an implement having diverse tools one of which transports a quantity of coating material from a supply-means to the work surface.
99+, for an implement including a tool which is linearly retractable into its reservoir and is projectable therefrom for application of coating material to a work surface.
118+, for a device wherein the implement is completely separable from the reservoir* for transporting a quantity of coating material therefrom and applying it to a work surface.
208+, for an implement including a ball, roller or endless belt in communication with the supply-means for simultaneous reception and transportation of material therefrom and application to a work surface.
