During this time, the company has conducted countless tests to determine the ideal methods for formulating and applying paints in order to achieve most satisfactory results. However, the cumulative experience of these many years has been distilled into fairly simple recommendations. This manual contains basic formulas for durable paints adapted to various surfaces and average conditions. It also includes data on surface preparation, on the number of coats required, and what precautions to follow in modifying formulas or application methods to meet certain varia tions from average conditions. Beyond this, it is impractical to go. An experienced painting and decorating contractor is qualified to weigh all factors and to change his formulas and procedure to meet them. Others should strictly follow the formulas and recommendations given here, which are much more satisfactory, even under unusual con ditions, than haphazard deviations from them. SELECTING THE PROPER PAINT Cost, exposure, required durability, frequency of cleaning and of repainting--all these factors influence the selection of the proper paint. The principal problem in selecting paints is the adjustment between initial cost and desired durability. When properly applied, pure lead-in-oil paints are as durable as any combination of pigments, and far more du rable than most. Lead-in-oil paints can usually be prepared on the job for less cost than many paints of not even approximately equal qualities. The ma terials cost less, and mixing and tinting take little more time than stirring and retinting ready-mixed paints. The labor cost for a paint job is usually two or three times the cost of the materials. Thus, if repainting will be required within one or two years, the use of a minimum-cost short lived paint may be justified. But if repainting will be done only when the life of the original paint is over, the high cost of labor makes it considerably more economical to use the most durable paint there is, even though its initial cost may be a little higher than a short-lived cheaper paint. It is important to remember that the service of any paint depends upon the skill of the painter. Reputable manufacturers can only guarantee the composition of the paints they sell. They cannot guarantee results. HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE Reliable data on the selection of durable paints for every major type of painting job are given on the following pages. Formulas are tabulated for various lead-in-oil paints according to the type and condition of the surface to be painted. Complete speci fications can be written for any job by adapting these data to conditions prevail ing on the project. When master painters are employed, these formulas may serve as a guide to materials and proportions. When less skilled workmen are employed, they may be made mandatory.

Its popularity has grown ever since, until it. has become the standard ofcomparison. Searches to find cheaper substitutes have produced many other paint pigments, but unbiased authorities still agree that white lead remains the most universally reliable painting material. OUTSTANDING CHARACTERISTICS Eagle White Lead is packaged in two forms--Heavy Paste and All-Purpose Soft Paste. Either is ideally adapted for both interior and exterior work. The only difference is that AlJ-Purpose contains a small amount of turpentine, added by a special grinding process. This makes it easier to mix on the job. No Crocking-No Scaling Eagle White Lead unites chemically with linseed oil and forms a soft elastic paint film. When the surface ro which it has been applied ex pands and contracts with temperature changes, this elastic film expands and contracts with it, so that it does not crack or scale. Perfect Repainting Surface Good paint wears by slow, even chalking. An Eagle White Lead film wears in this way--not by cracking and scaling. It leaves a perfect surface for repainting--no burning or scraping is necessary. Flows Freely-Good Coverage Surface for surface, pure white lead paint will hold its own in coverage with most paints--and excel many of them. Furthermore, it brushes easier--enabling a painter to paint more surface each hour he works. An Eagle White Lead paint film goes on evenly and smoothly. Great Hiding Power Pigment particles in an Eagle White Lead paint form a solid mass of pigment that completely covers the surface. Its "refractive index" is high--giving it great opacity. Easy to Mix on the Job Oil is added to Eagle White Lead at the factory so that it is in an easy-mixi_ng_ consistency when the painter receives it. He merely has to thin it into paint of the type best suited to meet surface con ditions--a matter of only a few minutes for 100 lbs., which when mixed according to finish coat formula produces more than six gallons of paint. Does Not Retain Rust Stains A film of paint made from Eagle White Lead and oil does not react chemically with the ferrous metal compounds formed by rust. For this reason, the paint does not retain rust stains from nail heads or iron screens. The rust washes down and off the surface, leaving no stains behind which cannot be removed with water. Easily Tinted Painters can easily tint Eagle White Lead to any desired color (except extremely dark shades). Exact values are obtained by adding colors in oil. Color pigments are tightly held, minimizing fading. PRACTICAL TEST PROVES DURABILITY This is the midwestern community where the paint test was made. IOne hundred and twenty-four homes were divided into three groups and a different kind of paint used on each group. The service results - were carefully checked. (All work was done by the same painters.) r^ *... - ------ > r----T" Tfus home is typical of 3 the grouppainted with \. P"t containing no yhite. lead. Photograph taken after 18 months' ex posure.

These two photomicro graphs illustrate chemical action that takes place when it is mixed with linseed oil. "A" shows how pigment particles look before oil is added."B" shows how lead particles "blossom" out in linseed oil. Note that no sharp lines divide pigment and vehicle. ELEMENTS OF PAINTS Pigments, Oils, Thinners and Driers . . . Their Relation to the Formulas AINT is a mixture of a pigment, which forms the "armor" of the Ppainted surface, and a liquid called a vehicle. The pigment portion may consist of one or several elements. In the latter case, some of the substances may be "fillers," added to lower the cost (usually at the expense of durability and hiding power), or to give the paint some special quality. Colored pigments may also be added when required. The vehicle consists of a non-volatile oil; a volatile thinner to make the paint spread more readily and to give "tooth" to aid in the adhesion of succeeding coats; and driers to hasten drying. Qualities Desired in a Pigment Desirable characteristics of a pigment include opacity, covering power, good and enduring color, and the ability to combine actively with the oil in the vehicle. It should be neutral or basic with respect to the sur face, and upon aging should present a smooth surface which can be repainted without costly surface preparation. Qualities Required in a Vehicle The oil portion of the vehicle should combine chemi cally with the pigment, forming a hard, tough and elastic film which will contract and expand with the surface; it should dry in reasonable time and not discolor the pigment. Linseed is the most widely accepted oil, but certain special oils such as Eagle Flatting Oil and Eagle Lead Reducing Oil add life to the paint and increase its sealing qualities. The duties of the "thinner," which are described above, are generally fulfilled by turpentine, which evaporates when the paint is applied. Proportions of Pigment and Vehicle by Volume An exterior paint, ready to apply, should range from 28% to 32% pigment and from 68 to 72% vehicle, by volume. Too much pigment usually causes early chalking and loss of gloss, while too much vehicle causes running, wrinkling, slow drying and stickiness. Paste white lead, thinned to painting consistency according to the recommendations in this manual, will conform to this ratio. Tinting Colors Colored pigments ground in oil can be added to white lead paint to create all the colors except the very dark ones, in the exact values desired. When paints are being tinted, the entire quantity required for the job should be mixed at one time and in one container, so that parts of the job will not vary in color. HOW TO MIX LEAD AND OIL PAINTS Mixing is the first step in good painting. There is little difference in mixing lead-and-oil paints and preparing so-called ready-mixed paints for the brush. In each case, pigment and vehicle must be thoroughly mixed, color added when necessary, and the mixture strained. STEP 1. PREPARING THE LEADPASTE Eagle All-Purpose Paste is merely stirred in the keg until oil and pigment are thoroughly incorporated. Heavy Paste is transferred into a larger keg, then a small amount of the oil called for by the formula is added and stirred in until the mix is just thin enough to pour. Eagle Sublimed Blue Lead and Eagle Red Lead are prepared in the same way as Heavy Paste White Lead.' STEP 2. PREPARING TINTING COLORS The tinting color is put into a small container and beaten up with turpentine until it forms a creamy paste, and then grayed off with white lead before adding to the large batch of white lead paste. STEP 3. MIXING TO FORMULA The paste, prepared as in Step 1, is poured into a con tainer large enough to hold three or four times the required quantity of paint. Then the oil is added in small quantities, and thoroughly stirred into the paste. Colors, mixed as in Step 2, and the required amount of turpentine are stirred in next, and finally the drier. The entire mix is then strained. Any paint containing oil and an "active" pigment like Tjlead should stand for about 24 hours before use. Greater uniformity, coverage and improved brushing and dur' ability will result. The entire mix should be stirred just before application, and kept covered. 1939-SWEET-00380 A PAINT 17 10 FAILURES- Appearance, Causes and Remedies VERY paint film eventually "wears out." The E ideal way for a paint to wear is by slow, even chalking, so that when the time to repaint finally comes, the surface is smooth and requires only a minimum of preparation before repainting. Defective performance is evidenced by such failures as cracking, scaling, peeling, fading and alligatoring, which may be caused by improper paint formulation, improper workman ship, or faulty construction. By studying the many types of paint failures, their causes and remedies, they may be entirely avoided or at least corrected at a mini mum of expense. However, the more familiar one becomes with paint troubles, the more obvious is the conclusion tha.t nearly all of them can be averted by employing skilled paint craftsmen who use paint materials which can be mixed on each job to suit the conditions of the surface and the weather. Alligatoring Caused by application of relatively hard, fast-drying surface coat over undercoats which are soft or slow dry ing. Improper oil, too much oil or insufficient drying time may be the cause. Each coat should be formulated to be successively softer than the priming coat. Alligator cracks usually do not pene trate the entire paint coat. When not severe, the cracked layer can be wire-brushed off before painting. Otherwise the entire paint coat must be removed. Cracking and Scaling Results from use ofhard dry ing inelastic paint which does not contract and ex pand with under surface. Old paint must be removed, usually by burning. Reme died by using properly form ulated lead-in-oil paint. Mildew Stains Caused when an air-borne fungus attaches itself to wet paint in shaded areas and feeds on oil in the paint film. Mildew stains must be re moved before repainting by a wash of 1 lb. tri-sodium phosphate or sodium carbon ate to 1 gal. of water, after which the surface should be flushed with clean water and allowed to dry about 48 hours before repainting. Addition of H oz. mercuric chloride per gallon of paint, or the use of less oil and more turpentine, is desirable in sections of the country where mildew is common. Wrinkling Usually caused by one of three things: (1) sudden drops in temperature; (2) application of too thick a paint; (3) using an excess of drier. To remedy, sand the surface and use a properly formulated paint applied in the correct way. Blistering and Peeling Caused by moisture under the unbroken paint film. First evidence is a blister which later breaks and causes peeling of the paint film. All blistered paint must be scraped off, the source of moisture found and corrected, and the sur face thoroughly dried be fore repainting. Spot Fading Evidenced by color changes and loss of gloss in irregular patches. Caused by spots in the surface which absorb oil from the paint unevenly. It appears only when insuffi cient paint has been used. Application of three coats of property formulated paint will avoid it. Similar to alligatoring but much less serious and characterized by minute surface cracks. Flakes are small and generally disappear as paint gradually chalks. Before repainting, it is sufficient to brush the surface to remove loose particles. 1939-SWEET-00381 5 Washing Caused by pigments which form water-soluble com pounds or by painting under damp conditions. It is evidenced by streaks at lower edges of clapboards, by accumulations on column footings and deposits on foundations. FORMULAS FOR EXTERIOR WOODWORK Specification Data: Painting should be done in dry weather and when the temperature is above 40 F. Painting done at lower temperatures, especially when nights are likely to bring frost and moisture with sudden drops in temperature, will not be as satisfactory as painting done under ideal conditions. Flatting, loss of gloss, spotting and premature chalking may result. Moisture in wood will be drawn out by the sun and form blisters under a paint film which will eventually result in peeling. Green lum ber should be primed as soon as possible and allowed to stand several days before application of succeeding coats. Defer all painting two to three days after a driving rain. In new and re-painting work, fill nail holes, cracks and crevices with putty after priming or first coat has dried, to form a smooth surface and to prevent water from entering behind the paint. Three coats of paint on new work and two coats on repainting work are generally sufficient.

Paints should be kept at this temperature before being used. White lead, however, brushes easier than varnishes and enamels and may, therefore, be applied at lbwer temperatures. All dust and dirt should be swept from the room before any paint is applied. Three coats are usually sufficient in new work, and two coats in repainting. In certain cases where a specially durable job is required, additional coats may be added, each coat being extremely, thin. It is advisable in specifications to require adherence to formulas only when work is not in the hands of qualified contractors or decorators. The following formulas will produce paint that will give satisfactory service in a majority of cases.

In cold weather, paints should be kept at this temperature over night before being used. White lead, because of its superior brushing qualities, may be applied at lower temperatures. All dust and dirt should be wiped from the surface and swept from the room before paint is applied. Formulas given below are recommended for average conditions. They may be modified by an experienced painting contractor to meet special conditions.

When Eagle Heavy Paste White Lead is used, add one quart more flatting oil 01; turpentine to all formulas except alternates. 1939-SWEET-00384 8 10 FORMULAS FOR MASONRY AND STUCCO Specification Data: Surface must be thoroughly dry and chemically stable. Moisture should not reach the surface under the paint through faulty flashings, condensation or improper drainage. (If unsatisfac tory conditions cannot be corrected, use special cement paints.) Surface should be tested for free lime and other salts which are harm ful to oil. The following solution is a simple test for free lime: Mix i dram phenolphthalein, and 4 oz. grain alcohol in x qt. of water. Dip a glass rod into this solution and touch the surface in several places. Free lime will cause a bright red spot to appear. To correct an alkaline condition, apply a solution of 4 lbs. zinc sul phate to 1 gal. of water. Use large brush and rub in well. When dry, brush off surface before painting. Painting should be done only in dry weather and when the tempera ture is not under 40 F. Allow ample time for thorough drying.

Painting on exposed iron and steel should preferably be brushed to assure intimate contact of the paint with all parts of the metal work. Sublimed Blue Lead may be used for both priming and finish coats. Each, coat may be tinted characteristically to permit proper super vision. Red Lead is often used as a second coat, as well as for priming. The second coat may be tinted by adding carbon black. If light colors are desired with Sublimed Blue Lead or Red Lead, sec ond and subsequent coats may be White Lead-in-Oil, plain or tinted.

These finishes are not much more expensive than an ordinary job of high quality painting. Their added cost is due largely to the extra labor involved and will therefore vary with the type of finish desired and the skill of the painter in applying it. Selected stipples and decorative finishes are illustrated to suggest the range of decorative treatments possible with Eagle White Lead paints and glazes made with Eagle Flatting Oil. The principal techniques include the following: Whisk Broom Finish, Figure 1 ST I P P LING Stippling in one of its manifold forms is the foundation for all fine interior work on flat surfaces and also should be used as a base for work to be color glazed. It eliminates brush stroke marks, producing a surface that diffuses light and adds interest and character. Plain brush stippling. A finish coat slightly lighter in color than the under coat is applied, using a paint mixed a little thicker than usual. The surface is stippled by tapping the wet paint with a clean bristle stippling brush. Grained and brush stipples. More distinctive stippled finishes may be obtained by using a whisk broom, various types of brushes, combs or similar tools to produce a low-relief texture. The experienced craftsman has an almost limitless variety of patterns at his command, merely by the use of different tools and strokes. See Figures 1 and 2. TEXTURING Conservatively between the very subtle texture of stippling and the extremely coarse, high relief textures produced by plastic paints (which won and lost popu larity some years ago) are various decorative textures produced in a final coat of thickened white lead paints. These are worked over, while wet, with sponges, brushes, combs, the palm of the hand, crinkled paper or other materials to roughen the surface to any desired degree. In all cases the desired texture is developed by experimentation on trial panels. Degree of relief is largely governed by consistency of the paint, while character of texture is determined by the imple ments and stroking employed. The scope of textures possible is indicated by Figures 3 and 4. GLAZING AND ANTIQUING Glazing gives the effect of sunlight passing through stained glass windows, while one particular method of glazing known as "antiquing" may be used to give "age" to a painted surface. The method used consists of applying a coat of transparent special liquid, called "glazing liquid," over the regular coats and then adding spots, stripes or patches of color, which are wiped out with a cloth into cloud-like effects. The safest way to he sure of obtaining the desired effect is to have the painting contractor submit samples of the many different possibilities. MOTTLING This process uses two or more Coats of paint in contrasting tints or harmonizing colors. One finish coat is applied and allowed to dry thoroughly. The second is then applied with a sponge, coarsely crinkled paper, or other similar material in spots and clouds, all over, but not completely concealing, the under coat. Another method is to apply the second coat to the wall, then remove it in spots by tapping with a damp clean sponge, clean crinkled paper or similar material STENCILING Decorative all-over patterns, borders or special designs may be applied by paint ing through oiled-paper or metal stencils with a stiff bristle brush carrying very little, paint, by tapping rather-than brushing. Paste white lead is often used unthinned for this purpose.

Loose boards or siding shall be renailed and repairs made to siding over drip caps and window and door headers. The open spaces around door casings, win dows and corner boards shall be puttied. RIPOLIN ENAMEL. .(See Ripolin Section--Specsfication 13) EUSTON WHITE LEAD is a lead of unusual white ness. It produces a smooth and enamel-like film. Euston White Lead is pure carbonate of lead made by a secret patented process that controls its white ness and fineness, which in turn governs its unusual spreading capacity and ability to produce more paint per hundred pounds. Furnished in three forms: Heavy Paste; Soft Paste; and All-Purpose. (Speci fications furnished on request.) WOOD SHINGLE SIDING AND ROOFS ENDURANCE SHINGLE STAINS are high grade creosote stains used to prevent warping, curling, splitting and general decay of the wood as well as supply permanent and decorative color. Brushing: -- Endurance Shingle Stains cover approxi mately ISO square feet per gallon, 1st coat} 100 square feet per gallon, 2nd coat.

Old Work On old work Endurance Shingle Stains can be applied by either brushing or spraying although the brushing applica tion is recommended Particular care shall be exercised to see that all portions, particularly the edges of the shingles, are well coated Two coats are recommended and in such instances the first coat shall be reduced 25% with raw linseed oil. COMPOSITION ROOFS . . . Specification 2 1st Coat--Apply Base-Coat over the entire surface, work ing it well into all spots that have become bare. (Alter nate:--If Base-Coat is not available reduce Glidden En durance Paint (Prepared) with one quart of linseed oil and one pint of turpentine to each gallon for application to the south and west sides of the house and with one quart of turpentine and one pint of linseed oil for the east and north sides.) ENDURANCE ROOF COATING is a pure asphalt suitable for reconditioning and waterproofing all types of composition roofs. Insures protection against water, weather, alkali, common acids, gases, fumes, etc. Applied with regular roof brushes. 2nd Coat--This final finishing coat shall be Glidden En durance Paint (Prepared) as it comes in the container. TITAN-O-ZINC is made with titanated pigments which give great hiding quality and a brilliant whiteness. It is offered as an alternate to Glidden Endurance Paint (Prepared) for those who prefer a paint with Titanium base instead of Lead. It is recommended in smoky districts where fumes are prevalent. It is regularly supplied only in white but may be colored as desired by adding Glidden Pure Colors in OiL Titan-O-Zinc covers approximately 400 to 425 square ieet per gallon, 2 coats. Specification 3 Same as Specification 1 substituting Glidden Titan-O-Zinc in place of Glidden Endurance Paint (Prepared) in second ana third coats. EXTERIOR WOOD SURFACES (Varnished) Including Porch Ceilings, Doors, Trim, Etc. GLIDDEN OIL STAINS are permanent, non-fading pigmented stains that require but little wiping and are recommended for all exterior work. Glidden Oil Stains cover approximately S00 sguare feet per gallon, 1 coat. GLIDDENSPAR is recommended as the finest varnish available today for either interior or exterior use. It. is made from bakelite and synthetic type resins which are the latest developments in varnish re search and manufacture. 5 1939-SWEET-00393 17 14 EXTERIOR FINISHES (Cant'd) Gliddenspar is pale in color, will not turn white from water, and is impervious to alcohol. Specification 5 1st Coat--After sanding wood to a smooth surface, brush on a coat of Glidden Oil Stain. Wipe off excess stain with a soft cloth. Allow 24 hours to dry. 2nd Coat--(Open grained wood only) Sand and fill with Glidden Paste Wood Filler reduced as needed with tur pentine or naphtha. Wipe before Filler becomes hard, rub bing across grain and hard enough to force the Filler into the pores and remove excess. 3rd Coat--Brush on one coat of Gliddenspar Varnish in the consistency as supplied by the manufacturer and allow to dry. 4th Coat--(Same as 3rd Coat.) NOTE: Don't use Shellac anywhere in a schedule em bracing Synthetic Varnishes. ' WOOD PORCH FLOORS . . .

Specification 6 1st Coat--One brush coat of Glidden Porch and Deck Paint thinned with one quart of pure linseed oil and one pint of pure turpentine to the gallon. 2nd Coat--After 72 hours, apply a full flowing coat of Glidden Porch and Deck Paint thinned with one pint of pure turpentine to the gallon. 3rd Coat--Allow 48 hours for drying and apply a full coat of Glidden Porch and Deck Paint as it comes in the con tainer. CONCRETE, STUCCO and BRICK . . . LIQUID CEMENT COATING is for damp-proofing and rendering uniform exterior surfaces of concrete, stucco, etc. It is composed of carefully selected pig ments and specially prepared oils which produce an extremely durable and water-resisting -semi-gloss finish. Liquid Cement Coating covers 300 to 500 square feet per gallon depending on the porosity and texture of the sur face. New Work, Specification 7 1st Coat--To each gallon of Glidden Liquid Cement Coat ing add one pint of Glidden Liquid Cement Mixing Liquid and brush well into the surface. Allow 36 to 48 hours to dry. 2nd Coat--Brush on a coat of Liquid Cement Coating as it comes in the container. Allow 72 hours for drying. 3rd Coat--One additional coat brushed on evenly (as sup plied by the manufacturer.) OLD WORK Remove all loose paint from old surfaces. Touch up bare spots with Glidden's Liquid Cement Coating that has been thinned 25% with Liquid Cement Mixing Liquid. Specification 7A 1st Coat--Apply one coat of Liquid Cement Coating, of color selected, to the entire surface after having reduced it in the ratio of four to one with Liquid Cement Mixing Liquid. 2nd Coat--The second coat shall be Liquid Cement Coat ing applied full body and brushed well onto and into the surface. STRUCTURAL STEEL AND METAL ORNA- t] MENTS... , LIQUID RED LEAD is recommended wherever a shop . coat of red lead is specified. It comes ready to apply, is extremely elastic, and is an excellent rust preventative. NEV-A-RUST embodies every requirement of a high grade metal protective paint. It is the result of years of research and observation of the product in actual use. . Nev-A-Rust covers 600 to 700 square feet per gallon, 1 coat. The combination of these two materials, if applied as here after specified, will adequately protect all the coated metal of any structure from the destructive elements. NOTE: It is impossible to overestimate the need of an absolutely clean and rust-free steel which must be obtained by thorough sand blasting or wire brushing. Specification 8 Shop Coat--A priming coat of Glidden Liquid Red Lead as it comes in the container to be applied at the mill. 1st Field Coat--A brush cpat of Glidden Nev-A-Rust, of color selected, as it comes in the container. 2nd Field Coat--(Same as 1st Field Coat.) NOTE: By alternating the colors of the material used in the Field Coats, the architect secures a color contrast be tween the coats which insures thorough workmanship on inspection. GRAPHITE LIQUID PAINT is recommended for use on any metal surface. It is offered as an alternate to Nev-A-Rust for those who prefer a graphite base paint for this use. Its heat resisting qualities make it especially good for painting chimneys, boilers, etc. Specification 9 Same as Specification 8 substituting Glidden Graphite Liquid Paint for Glidden Nev-A-Rust. METALLITE (Aluminum Paint) is a product of un usual covering and hiding ability excellent for all exterior surfaces both hot and cold. It may be used as a priming coat to be covered with Glidden En durance Paint (Prepared) or other exterior paint or it may be used as a finish coat over Glidden Nev-A- Rust or Base Coat where an Aluminum finish is desired. GALVANIZED IRON . Specification 10 The galvanizing process leaves on the surface of the iron a film to which most paint will not adhere. It is therefore, necessary to prepare galvanized iron in a special way, no matter what the final coats may be. The most satisfactory method of preparing the iron is to apply a brush coat of the following solution: dissolve 1 ounce each of Chloride of Copper, Sal Ammoniac and Nitrate of Copper in y2 gallon of water in an earthenware vessel. When dissolved, add 1 ounce of Hydrochloric Acid. Allow 24 hours to dry and then use a stiff brush to remove the pow der which has formed. Best results are obtained by immediately following with one coat of Glidtite Galvanized Iron Primer. Follow with Glidden Endurance Paint (Pre pared), Nev-A-Rust or other exterior paint. 6 1939-SWEET-00394 17 14 EXTERIOR FINISHES (Cont'd) SMOKE STACKS, PIPES and OTHER HOT SURFACES . . . SMOKE STACK BLACK is so formulated that it will bake hard to the metal, practically becoming a part of it and forming an excellent protective film. Specification 11 One Coat--Remove all grease spots and foreign matter from the surface and brush on one heavy coat of Glidden Smoke Stack Black of a consistency as supplied by the manufacturer. METAL ROOFS . . . TINNER'S RED is a popular sheet metal paint, per manent in color and absolutely waterproof. It is quick-drying and elastic; withstands rigid metal bending tests. Covers approximately 700 square feet per gallon, 1 coat. Specification 12 One Coat--Remove all rust, scale, grease, dirt, etc. from the surface. Apply one coat of Tinner's Red as it comes in the container. NEV-A-RUST . . . (See Specification 8) GUTTERS/ DRAINS and FLASHINGS . . . (See Specification 8) '*^1W 'W *- RIPOLIN ARCHITECTURAL ENAMELS For Fine Exterior and Interior Enamel Finish RIPOLIN is internationally known as a fine, durable enamel. The secret process by which it is manufac tured, together with the aging of the essential oils, makes BLT Ripolin Enamel a super-product. It actually improves with age; there are numerous public buildings and fine homes in the United States where 15 years of continuous service have not dimmed the lustre and beauty of Ripolin. The ever increasing demand for a quicker-drying product resulted in Q.D. Ripolin which was de veloped after years of careful research. Q.D. Ripolin dries in a much shorter length of time than BLT Ripolin but still retains all of its outstanding qualities. Q.D. Ripolin is manufactured in 18 washable, mod ern colors, carefully selected by authorities on architure, and color harmony. This enamel smoothes away to a glossy, tile-like finish, free from brush marks and will give lasting beauty to all sur faces where a high grade enamel finish is desired. Ripolin is furnished in High Gloss, Semi-Gloss I (Egg-shell) and Dead Flat White. Any finish de- | sired between the High Gloss and Dead Flat can be j|;; obtained by intermixing in varying proportions. To | obtain any of the lighter shades, White Ripolin may f be tinted by the use of pure color ground in Japan, thinning down the color with a small quantity of turpentine and adding slowly to the enamel until the desired color is obtained. The addition of a large amount of coloring matter to obtain any of the darker shades is not recommended. We will supply darker shades on order. Where Ripolin is to be used in colors, Ripolin Un dercoat tinted the same shade as the finishing coat should be used. Ripolin of itself will show a perfectly smooth, even surface without brush-marks, but will not cover irregularities in the under-coating. For this reason great care should be exercised to keep the working pots, brushes and surface to be worked on free from dust, grit, or other foreign matter. For extremely fine work, where there are two coats of enamel to be applied, the first coat of enamel should be rubbed with pumice rather than with sandpaper or steel wool. Do not thin the finishing coat of Ripolin. NEW EXTERIOR WORK . . . Exterior finishes on Ripolin-enameled homes are ex tremely durable with permanency of lustre and depth of beauty. A Ripolin surface because of its enamel-like finish does not hold the soot and grime. It cleans easily and always maintains extreme whiteness.

General Instructions All wall surfaces should be carefully checked for "hot" spots caused by excessive lime in the body coat. A litmus paper or phenolphthalein applied to those spots that indicate an alkaline condition should be used to prove whether such a condition exists. All plaster on which "hot" spots appear should be washed previous to the painting with a neutralizing solution made of at least 3 pounds of zinc sulphate dissolved in a gallon of water. Allow this application to dry thoroughly and brush all zinc crystals from the surface. New walls should be carefully pointed up before priming, cracks should be widened to at least and filled flush to the surface with a mixture made of J4 part plaster of Paris to ^4 parts of whiting by weight. This is mixed to an easy working con sistency by the addition of a good grade of varnish. Quick setting of the mixture indicates too much plaster of Paris and the addition of more whiting and varnish will ease working conditions. FLAT WALL FINISHES . , . SPEED-WALL FLAT is manufactured in 14 modern pastel shades. It dries to a soft finish with a slight sheen that indicates its washability. Speed-Wall Flat covers approximately 400 square feet per gallon on smooth plaster, 1st coat. 450 to 600 square feet per gallon on smooth plaster, 2nd coat.

REFLECT-O-LITE is a paint furnished in semi-pasteTj form that differs from other types of water paints in that casein is used in making the vehicle and has* 8 the faculty of producing unusual adhesion. Its pig ment is lithopone commonly used in practically all types of wall finishes. Re3ect-0-Lite covers solidly with one coat and has no lingering or strong penetrating odors. The instances where size is necessary are few. Re3ect-0-Lite is quick drying. It is economical because it can be thinned with water but in this respect it is different from Kalsomine because it is washable. New Work, Specification 18 Surface Preparation--Only in those instances where there are indications of uneven suction or porosity of the sur face is a primer necessary. When priming is recom mended use Speed-Wall Interior Base-Coat. After primer has dried apply one coat of Reflect-O-Lite after reducing each gallon of this material with one-half gallon of water. 2nd Coat--In extreme cases a second coat may be advis able. Old Work Surface Preparation--The surface to be painted shall be cleaned free from dirt and grease while loose paint, Kal somine, and other foreign matter shall be entirely removed.

U.S. Pat. Off. DUTCH BOY "GOOD PAINT'S OTHER NAME" "Good paint's other name" is a statement often made in referring to Dutch Boy white-lead. But it is more than just a slogan. Actually it expresses the experience of thousands of architects, owners and painting contractors who have specified or applied Dutch Boy white-lead on many thousands of buildings . . . who have watched Dutch Boy withstand years of weather exposure . . . who have seen Dutch Boy beautify the finest interiors. Today, white-lead is accepted as the standard in quality paint. The speci fication of it is recognized as an assurance of a quality paint job--one that protects both an owner's property and his pocket-book. THE PAINTING SPECIFICATIONS The specifications for painting and finishing contained in this booklet are divided into two parts: Section A and Section B. Section A contains those clauses which specify the materials to be used and outlines the ii general manner in which the work shall be carried forward. Section B contains the directions for surface preparation and application of the paint on the particular surfaces to be painted. In preparing specifications for the painting contractor, it will be necessary to include only those paragraphs that cover the exact work to be done. For the user's convenience we have employed letters and numerals to designate the sections, their main divisions and the para* graphs of the latter. If desired, detail of work to be done as outlined in Section B is the only part which need be written out in full. The details of materials and workmanship may then be covered by the following clause: All painting work under this contract, except as hereinafter specified, shall be executed in strict conformity with the Painting Specifications covering the use of Dutch Boy Products as issued by National Lead Company, which Specifications are hereby declared and made part of this specification, with the same force and effect as if written herein in full.

It includes nearly all the materials needed for painting any type of surface, interior or exterior. To the architect this Dutch Boy line offers a definite check on the quality of every brushful of paint. Inferior materials--even those used as sparingly as colors in oil or liquid drier -- sometimes impair a paint's protective or decorative qualities to a degree out of all proportion to their volume percentage. The full Dutch Boy line simplifies the preparation of specifications--they can be made "Dutch Boy" throughout. Furthermore, the presence on the job of the brilliant orange and black containers facilitates inspection. DUTCH BOY WHITE-LEAD Dutch Boy white-lead is sold in two forms, heavy paste and soft paste. Both are pure white-lead. Both sell for the same price. Heavy paste white-lead has been used for many years. Soft paste, a more recent development, is a white-lead which can be thinned to paint more quickly and easily than heavy paste. Both forms of white-lead can be used for all jobs ... on interior as well as exteriors ... for flat or eggshell as well as gloss finishes . . . are sold in roo-lb. steel kegs and 50, 25 and 12^-lb. steel pails. DUTCH BOY LINSEED OIL Dutch Boy linseed oil is clear, uniform and well settled. Since it is easy to adulterate linseed oil but difficult to detect the adulteration, the safest procedure in preparing specifications is to specify a brand of known purity and quality. Three types of strictly pure linseed oil -- raw, boiled and stand-oil type are marketed under the Dutch Boy trademark. AH three types are sold in 1 and 5 gallon cans--sealed at the factory as a guarantee of purity. DUTCH BOY LEAD MIXING OIL Dutch Boy Lead Mixing Oil is a companion vehicle to Dutch Boy linseed oil. It was developed for a particular purpose--to provide an oil which would mix perfectly with white-lead for the sealing and decoration of plaster, wallboard, concrete and stucco --whether on the interior or exterior. It dries to a soft flat finish. The surface is free from brushmarks 01 shiners. It retains its good appearance, despite frequent washing and everyday wear and tear. Dutch Boy Lead Mixing Oil is available in sealed 1 gallon cans and 5 gallon drums. DUTCH BOY COLORS IN OIL Dutch Boy colors in oil are specially made for timing white-lead paint. They come in a soft paste form and can be mixed into the paint without thinning. They disperse rapidly. There is no lumping or streaking. Thus they save time and labor for the painter. There is a wide range of colors in the Dutch Boy line. They come in airtight, friction top 1 gallon, 1 quart and l/z pint cans and in 2-ounce tubes. DUTCH BOY WALL PRIMER For the first coat on interior plaster, Dutch Boy wall primer is the best p.ossible recommendation. Not only does it effectively stop the surface suction and seal fine fire cracks, but it hides the surface as well, providing an ideal foundation for the succeeding coats of white-lead fiat. Dutch Boy wall primer is sold in 1 quart and 1 gallon cans and 5 gallon kits. DUTCH BOY LIQUID DRIER Dutch Boy liquid drier is a dependable drier made especially for use with Dutch Boy white-lead. Its action is neither too fast nor too slow. It is sold in pint, pint, quart and gallon cans. DUTCH BOY RED-LEAD Just as pure red-lead excels other paint materials as a protection for metal, so does highly-oxidized red-lead--that is, red-lead containing more than 97% Pba04--excel other red-leads with a lower true red-lead content. Paint made from highly oxidized red- lead has better keeping qualities. It is easier to apply and has a greater spreading capacity. It produces a uniform film of greater den sity and thus is more durable and more resistant to destructive atmospheric influences. Only this better type of red-lead, containing more than 97% Pb304, is used in the paste or ready-to-use red-lead paints sold under the Dutch Boy trademark. DUTCH BOY PASTE BED-LEAD--Is highly oxidized red-lead ground in pure linseed oil. It is sold in 100-lb. kegs, 50, 25, and 12Yz lb. steel pails. DUTCH BOY LIQUID RED-LEAD No. 1 (ORANGE RED), No. 6 (LIGHT BROWN), No. 7 (DARK BROWN), No. 5 (BLACK)-- are ready-to-use red-lead paints unexcelled for all metal surfaces exposed to the weather. Sold in 20-gallon drums, 5 gallon kits and quart and gallon cans. DUTCH BOY QUICK-DRYING RED-LEAD--Is a special type of red-lead paint designed for use when the available drying time is short. It dries for recoating in from four to six hours, may be painted over the same d^y if necessary. It contains nothing but pure highly-oxidized red,-lead ground in a synthetic resin vehicle. Sold in 20 gallon drums, 5 gallon kits and gallon cans.

PAINTING METAL WHEN QUICK DRYING IS REQUIRED Whenever conditions demand quick drying Dutch Boy QuickDrying Red-Lead Primer should be specified. Dutch Boy Quick-Drying Red-Lead Primer is a straight red-lead paint weighing 19.3 pounds to the gallon. Its quick drying proper ties are obtained through the use of a synthetic resin vehicle. It dries for recoating in from two to six hours. It is specially adapted for use in painting ships, water tanks and other equip ment which cannot be conveniently kept out of service for an extended period. Dutch Boy Quick-Drying Red-Lead Primer dries to a hard, firm, yet elastic film, uniform in thickness. It adheres tightly to metal, holds well the paint coats applied over it, and will stand severe rubbing. On exposure, it is resistant to the softening action of water. It may be used for all coats. For inspection purposes suc ceeding coats can be tinted to brown by the addition of from to z/2 pint of lampblack per gallon. If the proportion is increased' beyond z/i pint to a gallon, the lampblack should be ground in japan. DUTCH BOY PAINTING SPECIFIC ATIO NS 17 23 GOOD PAINTING an d The preceding specifications are based not only on our own constant testing of paints and painting methods under actual service conditions but also upon the practical knowl edge and experience of skilled painters. But no matter how carefully worked out they may be, the usefulness of these specifications to any particular individual depends chiefly on his acceptance of white-lead and red-lead as satisfactory HOW TO ASSURE IT paints for the job he is considering at the time. In other words, the specifications represent standard practices and it seems only logical to devote a portion of the space to a discussion of the facts upon which the recommendations are founded. In this way the picture will be complete. It will include the "why" as well as the "how" of specifying Dutch Boy paint products. NOTES ON EXTERIOR PAINTING Paint is specified for exterior surfaces to bring about a combination of benefits including preservation and better appearance. The exterior surfaces for which it is fittingly specified include practically all the common building ma terials . . . wood, concrete, brick, stucco, stone, metal. But no matter what the purpose nor what the surface, the man who pays the bill wants the paint that is specified and used to function longer than any other paint that might have been used. In short he wants maximum paint life, and, us ually, minimum paint cost. So it becomes the problem of those responsible for the specifications to merge these two requirements into realiza tion. This can be done and has been done on numberless occasions through the selection of white-lead. That is to say--white-lead has a long, proved back ground of practical use behind it. It takes years, as a rule, to prove whether a paint or a painting method is sound. There are plenty of instances where trouble has developed ten years after the wrong materials were employed or the wrong method followed. But white-lead has been used for many generations. Its qualities have been attested by thou sands upon thousands of actual paintings and repaintings. Its performance thus becomes a matter of past knowledge and not a matter for future speculation. This is why we can say that white-lead is a safe paint to specify and a safe paint to use, a statement which remains true not only under ideal laboratory conditions but in practical, everyday situations as well. In other words, white-lead is a paint with a generous margin of safety. Factors that may be beyond the specifiers control, such as poor weather conditions at the time of painting, are rend ered less hazardous. Of course, such unfortunate happen ings do affect the life and the appearance of any paint job but the more foolproof the paint, the less the damage. Another fact that should never be forgotten is that to day's painting governs tomorrow's repainting. Paint must wear out . . . must be replaced sooner or later. How soon and how inexpensively depends on what is done now. It is a simple, arithmetical truth that the longer repaint ing can be postponed safely, the less the cost per year for the original painting. It is likewise true that the cost of the repainting will be much less if the old surface requires no more preparation than dusting off loose dirt. That's all a white-lead job needs. White-lead wears down slowly and evenly ... an action known as "chalking." One of its great advantages is that the surface is smooth and unbroken when it is time to repaint. The specifications contained in this booklet also cover the use of red-lead for painting iron and steel surfaces. It re quires little argument to prove that exposed surfaces of iron and steel need continual paint protection. Frequently, a few hours in the weather is enough to start rust on bare metal and once started rust never rests. Rust spots soon develop into damage spots and in a few months can seri ously endanger an expensive structure. Pure red-lead paint has the faculty of sticking so tight to metal that it becomes almost a part of the surface it covers. Red-lead has long been as prominent in the protec- 1939-SWEET-00409 This photograph of the siding on a double house tells its own story about paint. The owner of the left side of this double house "saved** money on the initial cost of.fits paint job. He paid 0/6 less than the owner on the right side who got a white-lead job. Both jobs were hwo years old when the picture was taken. The "cheap" faint job is through. The white-lead job is still good for plenty of service. 10 DUTCH BOY PAINTING SPECIFICATIONS tion of metal as white-lead is in the preservation of woofl and other surfaces. Most of the important structures in the world have had red-lead protection ever since the metal left the mill. 1;t> The long wear and resultant economy of Dutch Boy red-lead is a matter of record and the same arguments we have used to justify the specifying of white-lead apply with equal truth and force to this standard metal protecting paint. It is always to the best interests of the architect or engineer, the owner and the structure itself to specify redlead paint--Dutch Boy red-lead paint--of proper type and formulation to fit the job to be done. 12 23 NOTES ON INTERIOR PAINTING To properly choose an interior paint the standard for judging it must first be determined. On many jobs--prob ably on most jobs--the standard is appearance. In this respect, white-lead is really in a class by itself. There is no other paint that gives quite the same effect-- an effect which can best be described as a solid, rich beauty of finish. For many generations this quality has made whitelead the unquestioned choice for fine interiors. The elab orate decorations of church interiors, the impressive treat ments of the important rooms in hotels and public build ings, the best effects in homes, all have been achieved with white-lead paint. White-lead must necessarily bring this same beauty of finish, this same fine appearance to all interiors for which it is used. Another factor related to appearance is color. So often it is imperative that an exact shade or tint of color be em ployed to effect the architect's purpose or to fit in with a particular structural design. White-lead, being a custommade paint mixed on the job, can be tinted to just the right color with Dutch. Boy colors in oil. The architect, the decorator and the owner will all receive the effect they want, not just something approximately like it. On the other hand, the standard for judging the value of an interior paint might be durability. That is, the type of durability that will successfully withstand cleaning with soap and water as well as the ordinary wear and mechan ical abrasion to which most interior surfaces are subject. Here again, white-lead mixed as recommended in these specifications has unique advantages. The resulting flat paint produces a thoroughly "cleanable" surface--one that can be scrubbed as frequently as necessary to keep it in good condition. It is a flat paint that is daily demonstrating its durability under actual service conditions. There are times, just as in the specifying of outside paint, when cost becomes the all-important factor. Even on this basis white-lead has nothing to fear if all the phases of cost are considered. There are interior "flats" sold for a lower price per gallon, of course, but application has a vital influence on interior painting costs. Dutch Boy goes on so easily and levels out so smoothly that a man can paint more surface per hour. Thus the labor charge per square foot applied is lowered. Also, Dutch Boy white-lead covers at least 800 square feet per gallon on smooth plaster which makes it an economical paint from the standpoint of the quantity needed for the job. So, no matter what the yardstick for selecting an interior paint may be, Dutch Boy white-lead will work out to the advantage of the man who foots the bill. It is a flat paint that will stand out against the field in any reasonable and fair test and one that the architect can specify with perfect confidence both as to its immediate satisfaction and its future performance. WALKED ON-- SMEARED - - - Just to prove the remarkable sturdiness of white-lead fiat paint we put it through a special gruelling test. In stead of painting it on-a wall wc used a square of wallboard that could be walked on. For a full week, lying on the floor in a busy doorway, this paint was tramped upon by hundreds of feet. Back and forth . . . heel and toe . . . grind and crush went these feel until the original white became a very dirty gray. Even this wasn't all. Walls aren't walked on but many of them are soiled with such things as grease, lipstick, io dine, shoeblacking, ink and pencil marks. So all of these were streaked on this already mistreated painted surface. Then it was washed. Water and washing powder cleaned this paint so that it looked practically new again. This, wc respectfully sub mit, is PAINT WEAR . . . the kind of wear that you should get from the fiat paint you specify . . . or else your client is not getting everything from his paint dollar. - - - CLEANED!

The result of this policy is that the complete Sherwin-Williams line is a long one. It embraces not only those types of finishes generally accepted for architectural use, but a complete line of Industrial materials, each de signed and manufactured to do a particular job. There is a Sherwin-Williams product for every surface in house, factory, mill, office building, hospital, or any other type of structure. In addition Sherwin-Williams offers to the manufacturer special materials with which to finish the products of his factory. The development of such an extensive variety of materials has resulted in a fund of knowledge and experience on the part of our Technical Research Department, as to what various types of finishes will do under varying conditions. Almost always, when presented with a particular problem, a regular item in the Sherwin-Williams line can be found to satisfy all the given requirements. When a regular item is not available, the Technical Department is always prepared to develop new materials to meet these specific conditions. WHAT THE S-W NAME ON PAINT MEANS Briefly, the Sherwin-Williams name on a particular paint means that all the Technical Advice, all the practical tests, all the perfection in manufacturing progress, avail able to the largest makers of paints and varnishes in the world, have been brought to bear upon the development and the manufacture of the product in the can. In other words, that special paint, made for a particular use0 and for a particular type of surface, is the best material that it is humanly possible to make for that purpose. Q For when Mr. Henry Sherwin and Mr. Edward Williams founded the company years ago, they concluded that their materials would be quality materials--and the best quality materials that they could make, regardless of any other consideration. That original policy has been strictly adhered to by the management of the company ever since. In specifying Sherwin-Williams products the architect may know that he is giving his client the best material that can be obtained for the purpose.

For additional information, address THE SHERWIN-WILLIAMS CO., Department of Architectural Service, 101 Prospect Avenue, N.W., Cleveland, or any of the Branches listed on the back cover of this catalogue. Hie adequate protection of structural steel requires that the protective coating shall be as completely impermlable as possible, to exclude water, air, or fumes from contact with the metal. The priming coat must: 1. Provide lasting adhesion or anchorage to the metal. 2. Prevent corrosion by maintaining an inhibifive or chemically basic condition at the metal surface. 3. Provide a hard, impervious film having sufficient elas ticity to accommodate itself to contraction and expan sion of the metal. Sherwin-Williams Kromik Metal Primer is a strong drying Linseed Oil Primer, composed of Lead Chromate in com bination with substantial amounts of Red Lead, White Lead, Zinc Oxide, and Iron Oxide. Kromik Primer is noticeably easier to apply than Red Lead, is not affected by sulphur fumes, and shows remarkable durability where structural steel is permitted to stand long periods of time before be ing recoated. The function of the finishing coat or coats is to protect the priming coat, and the number of coats and nature of ma terial used will depend upon the conditions to which the surface is exposed. Sherwin-Williams Metalastic is a highly elastic Graphite type of paint which affords excellent protection under the most severe weather conditions. Its quality may be judged by the fact that it has been the standard Sherwin-Williams recommendation for field coats on structural steel for over thirty years. In the recently-developed Kem-Kromik and Kem-Elastic, Sherwin-Williams has retained the fine qualities associated for many years with regular Kromik and Metalastic, but in addition/by employing the latest developments in Syn thetic liquids, it has been possible to obtain faster drying and maximum resistance to^weather and corrosive fumes. Extreme conditions of fumes and moisture require particular care in selecting the paint to be used. For this reason, where unusual conditions are anticipated, it is suggested that specific recommendations be obtained from the SherwinWilliams Department of Architectural Service.

SWP House paint is a first quality prepared paint in which pure white lead carbonate is combined with two other Sherwin-Williams paint pigments: S-W OZLO (leaded zinc) and S-W TITANIUM-magnesium, in a practical formulation that has successfully withstood long exposure in all climates. SWP Undercoater contains the same tested pigments used in SWP. It is especially designed for the first coat on new wood, or normal repaint work and is particularly valu able for badly weathered exterior surfaces. SWP White and SWP Colors are made under the most careful supervision, from pigments, colors, oils, and driers of our own manufacture in order to insure a performance that is uniform and dependable. SWP Fume Resisting White should be specified where gases and sulphur fumes are prevalent. Because of the variety of conditions encountered, full thinning instructions are supplied on every package. The Architect need only specify "application according to manufacturer's instructions." 6 PAINTING EXTERIOR WOODEN SURFACES (For maximum service and protection) FIRST COAT--S W P Undercoater 450 applied according to label directions.

NOTE: Last two coats may be tinted in accordance with Architects de sires with S-W First Quality Colors in Oil. The majority of hard woods, with the exception of maple, are open-grain. They have fairly prominent open pores, which follow the figures of the grain. A full, smooth varnish finish on such woods requires that these open pores be filled with a paste wood filler to secure a level surface for finish ing. Many times, however, the Architect prefers the so called open-pore finish, in which case the filler is omitted, and a special finishing system employed. Inquire of the S-W Representative for details. Close-grain woods require no filler, and we advise against the use of any so-called soft-wood filler or first-coater. In order to differentiate readily between the open-grain and close-grain woods, a list of the better-known building woods is given, segregated as to type: Open-grain woods: Ash Butternut Chestnut Elm Mahogany Rosewood Oak Walnut Close-grain Woods: Basswood Birch* Cedar Cherry* Cypress Fir Gumwood Maple Pine Poplar Redwood Whitewood Will permit use of paste filler where it is desired to emphasize the grain. Handling of Woodwork Trim All finishing lumber should be delivered protected from the weather, and stored on the premises in dry warm rooms to prevent the absorption of moisture with the resultant roughening of the wood which would require extra labor to recondition before finishing. Preparation of Surfaces All surfaces must be sanded smooth, rubbing with the grain, and never across it. Blemishes should be corrected and the surface, and the room cleaned of dust before pro ceeding with the application of any finishing coats. Each varnish coat should be sanded lightly before applying the succeeding coat, and the surface carefully wiped clean in every case. Exterior Varnish For varnished surfaces exposed to weather, extremes of heat and cold, excessive moisture, or to strong direct sun light fwindow-sills, show-windows, etc.] the use of a spar varnish is required. Sherwin-Williams Rexpar is strongly re sistant to the conditions enumerated. It is pale in color, and produces an excellent film. Floor Varnish The fundamental requirements for a floor varnish are that it must dry hard and tough without being brittle. It must be resistant to both hot and cold water as well as ordinary soap solutions. It must be rapid-drying. SherwinWilliams Mar-Not Varnish fulfills fhese requirements. It pro duces a tough, tenacious film, pale in color, and dries to walk on over-night. Finishes for Interior Woodwork Two methods are offered for finishing interior wood trim: 1. Full varnish finish with S-W Mar-Not Fast-Dri Varnish in full gloss, giving a polished finish, or a dull-rubbed finish by rubbing the surface with powdered pumice stone and rub bing oil. 2. Satin Varnish finish--a beautiful dull-rubbed finish produced by a finishing coat of S-W Mar-Not Satin Finish Varnish which dries to a dull finish without the labor or cost of hand-rubbing. NOTE: Even where a hand rubbed finish is specified, the use of Se+in Finish Varnish is most desirable for mouldings, curved areas, etc., where hand-rubbing is not feasible. Mar-Not Satin Finish Varnish is a finishing varnish for both wood, trim and floors, it produces a uniform satin finish. Gymnasium and Heavy Duty Wood Floors S-W Floor Seal, a varnish type wood-hardener, is designed to toughen and harden wood floors where extra heavy duty makes a varnish surface impractical. Floor Seal penetrates into the wood, leaving very little surface film, dries over night, is not slippery, does not collect dust, does not darken the floor as do ordinary floor oils. It Is recommended for new floors, of either hard or soft woods. 1939-SWEET-00418 7 II 30 Suitable Trims Sh e r w in -Wil l ia ms Suitable Trims SWP Pain t Pr epar ed Suitable .

SAVE-LITE WHITE rAIKT FOR INDUSTRIAL INTERIORS Save-Lite is the name which identifies a complete line of Interior White Finishes manufactured and offered by Sherwin-Williams for the betterment of industrial light ing. The value of a white finish for the interior of mills and factories is well known. The gain in quality and volume of production, in accuracy, and in the health and improved morale of workmen due to proper lighting has been demon strated in numerous cases. Sherwin-Williams Save-Lite is manufactured in three de grees of gloss--Flat, Egg-Shell and Full Gloss. It can be applied to any interior surface -- wood, metal, concrete, plaster or composition board. The material is formulated in a consistency suitable for application by either brush or spray. Sherwin-Williams Save-Lite has an unusually high light reflecting value. The light reflection factor for all SaveLite products has been determined by careful laboratory methods and varies from 85% to 87% of the actual light falling upon the surface. Save-Lite retains its superior light reflection characteristics for a remarkably long period of time after application, its freedom from yellowing being one of its outstanding features. the standpoint of light reflection and distribution, Save-Lite Eg-Shel offers some advantage by comparison with either the Flat or the Gloss. The accompanying drawing illustrates the comparative distribution of light reflected at various SELECTING THE DEGREE OF GLOSS There is no manufacturing reason for Sherwin-Williams ad vocating any one type of Mill White paint. Our sole interest is in supplying an interior finish which will be best adapted to the particular condition involved. Considered solely from GLOSS AND EGGSHELL WHITES 1939-SWEET-00424 13 angles from a surface painted with Eg-Shel and Gloss white paints. The advantage of Eg-Shel in the region of diffuse reflection is apparent. Save-Lite Eg-Shel finish combines the strong light diffusing properties of a flat-white with the superior washability and service of a full gloss. However, for maximum washability and durability, under the most adverse conditions, Full Gloss Save-Lite is recommended. For ceiling surfaces over indirect lighting equipment, it is important to eliminate high lights, or glare. This is best ac complished by the use of a flat or egg-shell finish. Inas much as the efficiency of the indirect lighting unit is almost entirely dependent upon the light reflecting value of the ceiling, the increased light reflection obtained from SaveLite Eg-Shel is an added reason for its selection in this type of work. Occasionally an interior white having a porous film is re quired, in order that moisture present in damp walls and ceilings can come through without forcing the paint from the surface. Save-Lite Flat White is a material of this nature and finds important use in packing plants, tunnels and other damp surfaces. FUME RESISTING MATERIALS Sherwin-Williams Fume Resisting Save-Lite has been de veloped to meet special conditions existing in many types of industries. Fume Resisting Save-Lite is manufactured in Gloss, Semi-Gloss and Flat, and is extremely resistant to the ordinary types and concentration of industrial fumes such as Sulphur, Chlorine, etc. Fume resisting finishes are required under the conditions prevailing in rubber plants, tobacco factories, portions of textile mills, and in the food industries. One of the latest developments of Sherwin-Williams Re search Laboratories has been the application of synthetic chemistry in the production of Fume Resisting Interior White finishes. Sherwin-Williams Save-Lite Fume Resisting Gloss and Super Fume Resisting Gloss are two remarkable products, without counterpart, in this field at the present time. The selection of a suitable Fume Resisting Mill White in volves technical considerations, which make it advisable for the architect to obtain suggestions from the paint manu facturer. The Sherwin-Williams Company is glad to cooper ate in matters of this kind without obligation in any way. i'i&'i ^ j--;\Y:V%''jVCV 45 t h r es -c o at w o r k For the best possible results on new work, three coats are recommended. Surfaces should be dry and clean. 1. Save-Lite Primer and Sealer 2. Save-Lite Undercoater 3. Save-Lite Flat, Eg-Shel-or Gloss MOISTURE CONDITIONS Save-Lite Flat dries to a porous film and will permit the passage of a certain amount of dampness without lifting the film. It may be applied in one or two coats on. concrete or brick walls which are too damp for usual painting proced ure, or which later may be subject to moisture from the back of the wall such as basements and tunnels. No under coater or sealer of any kind should be used and both coats of Save-Lite Flat should be reduced from 15 to 25% with Sherwin-Williams No. 74 Reducer. 45 A TWO-COAT w o r k It is recognized that in much industrial construction, twocoat work is used in the interest of economy. Save-Lite ma terials due to their unusual quality are particularly well adapted to this type of work. On new work and non-porous reasonably dry brick and con crete* masonry, Save-Lite Undercoater should be used as the first coat. The superior hiding power of Save-Lite Un dercoater and Save-Lite Eg-Shel will materially assist in overcoming the tendency of knots to show through on wood ceilings. For exceptionally absorbent surfaces such as Celotex, Ma sonite and other insulating wall boards, the first coat should be S-W Tri-Seal. Roof plank which contains an excessive amount of moisture may be given two coats of Save-Lite Flat, although the nor mal amount of residual moisture in roof plank will come through Save-Lite Undercoater and Save-Lite Eg-She! with out damaging the work. REPAINTING OLD WORK Best results on previously painted surfaces are obtained with two coats, using Save-Lite Undercoater followed with either Save-Lite Eg-Shel or Save-Lite Gloss. Where the old paint remains reasonably well sealed, one spray coat of either Save-Lite Flat, Eg-Shel, or Gloss will give good results, depending upon the color and condition of the walls over which they are applied. If the. old paint is ex tremely porous, a coat of Save-Lite Primer and Sealer should be used followed with Save-Lite Eg-Shel or Gloss. When the job requires painting on new plaster, concrete, or brick work without sufficient time for thorough drying, lime burning becomes an important problem. It is' impos sible to eliminate completely the hazards of painting under such circumstances. If the. wall is not too damp, Save-Lite Primer and Sealer used as the initial coat will reduce the danger of lime burning. A neutralizing wash coat of Zinc Sulphate solution prior to painting will also be helpful. * For the final coat, Save-Lite Flat, Eg-Shel, or Gloss may be used. FUME CONDITIONS Save-Lite Fume Resisting Flat, Semi-Gloss or Full Gloss, also Save-Lite Kem-Fume-Resist?ng Gloss, should be applied over Save-Lite Undercoater and Save-Lite Primer and Sealer in two or three coat work in the same manner as specified above for regular Save-Lite finishes. In all cases Involving fume resisting materials, a special investigation by $ technical representative of the paint manufacturer is suggested to the end that the materials selected will meet all of the conditions involved. 14 1939-SWEET-00425 u ; hi ti R e EVERT IS A SH ER W I N - W EL LIAMS ~ W r p1*4 tc/%/*V,.
