FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a fluid applicator with flow diverter

FIG. 2 is a top view thereof; and,

FIG. 3 is a side elevation view thereof; all side elevation views being identical to the side elevation view.

The applicator is open at the distal end straight through up to the four separate fluid diverter passageways at the proximal end.

The broken lines in the drawings represent environmental structure only and form no part of the claimed design.

The fluid applicator with flow diverter is used to change the flow of a fluid through a fluid applicator with four separate fluid diverter passageways so as to uniformly saturate the media shown in broken lines.
