SHIPS no longer sail blindly into storms. Wireless warns them of impending danger. Giant turbines carry them quickly to quieter waters.
Thanks to modern marine science, the dan ger of destruction has been greatly lessened.
Progress has been made, too, in another direction. Corrosion--likewise a cause of ship destruction --is being carefully avoided. More and more it is becoming the practice to give ships adequate red-lead protection.
Ship steel, properly protected with pure redlead, is safe from the rust-forming elements. Dutch Boy red-lead is pure red-lead. It makes a paint that is moisture-proof--that spreads easily, economically--that does not crack and scale.
You can get Dutch Boy red-lead in either paste or liquid form. The liquid comes in the natural orange-red for next-to-metal coats, and also in browns, greens and black for finishing coats. The paste is obtainable in the natural
orange-red, and can be shaded to any desired dark color-
When a white or light-colored finish is de sired, as on the superstructure, the practice is to use Dutch Boy white-lead. In the case of metal, the white-lead is applied over a red-lead undercoating. White-lead paint is also noted for its protective qualities and durability. It pro duces an extremely washable finish--one that stands up under frequent cleaning aboard ship.
