TJEAUTY combined with an unusual design is a feature of the Crumpled
Roll finish. Theveryabsence ofa planned andcarefuily thought-out pattern adds to its charm and distinction. Then there is the soft, feathery design -- the blending ofcolors--the uniqueness ofthe figures, all creating a beauty effect chat is pleasing and inviting to buyers or tenters. The Crumpled Roll finish is unusual--but it is only one of the many distinctive wall finishes to be obtained with Dutch Boy white-lead and flatting oil.
The Crumpled Roll finish resembles the work of a master craftsmaa. Any painter can produce it with the aid of a crumpled paper. First apply the undercoat of paint. When this is dry, apply a second coat, either lighter or darker than the first. Then, while the finishing coat is still wet, roll the crumpled paper over the surface, thereby partly exposing the undercoat. The constantly changing shape of the paper during this process accounts for the variations in the wall design.
