'* ' COST CALCULATIONS OP SEMI CL0si5ffl|jf0a"' ' 1 Th@ original report indicated that the semi gloss emul sioa exhibited Inferior biding on a square tfc/lb, Ti02 basis when compared to Interior Semi Gloss, A subsequent review*bf the re suits showed that the batch of Interior Semi Close used was off in odor. This was evidenced by the refleotanoe over white being 82.2# whereas a standard batch of Interior Semi Close has a reflect anoe of 84,3$. The subject emulsion paint has a refleotanoe over white of 83*8#, A lower refleotanoe over white results in a higher ooatrast ratio and raises the calculated hiding power figure. On the basis of the new figures, the hiding .efficiency per lb, of TiOjj of the-emulsion paint is not too far out of line. Considered on a cost per unit hiding basis the emulsion paint is somewhat better than Interior Semi Gloss, These results are sum marised in the table below.
