METAL PROTECTIVE COATINGS Specification No. 1 . Exterior Exposure Discussion--In the following specification, which applies to buried or exposed steel alike, SherwinWilliams. Kromik Metal Primer and Sherwin-Williams 'Metalastic are called for.. Kromik Metal Primer is specified because of its particular suitability for use as a protective coating to be applied directly to metal. Metalastic is specified on account of its particular suit ability as a final protective coating'which will staunchly guard against clanger to the undercoats.' In the manufacture of Sherwin-Williams Kromik Metal Primer, chromates`play a highly important part. Authorities are agreed that the use of chromates is a stainless steel cutlery. Another interesting test is the well-known .Sherwin-Williams, razor'blade test in which the razor blade--submerged in water carrying a certain percentage of chromates--remains, bright a year after the razor blade submerged in untreated water has been reduced to rust. Kromik Metal Primer has the following advantages for use on structural steel as compa red with red lead, which is recognized a.s a standard material with many years standing, for this type of work and which is a most excellent paint in itself: Kromik is noticeably easy to apply, especially in difficult and inaccessible members; it is npf affected by sulphur compounds in the air and show.4$iriarkediy"greater durability where it lies uppro- very wise procedure in a metal protective primer in tended to be applied direct to the metal surface for the prevention of rust. In tests extending over a period of five years or more, all paints containing chromates have made a uniformly excellent showing. Chemists explain the function of chromates as having the tendency to ^ renderthe surface of steel passive, or in other words, chromates reduce the tendency of the metal surface to set up. galvanic action or electric currents within itself. An. interesting application of this principle is found in tected^pn . the job for any period of time. Kromik inhibits corrosion and shows a very favorable lower material cost. Kromik is Sherwin-Williams' 'standard recommendation for a priming coat oh all metal work, v Sherwin-Williams Metalastic is our standard speci fication for finishing coats on structural steel work. It is specified for the second and third coats and is a pro-; tective coating of the graphite type; Metalastic is a full , oil paint which dries to a tough, durable and exceed-u ingly impervious film with high water shedding prop| | the'use of ferro chromesJa-the manufacture of so-called erties.

Antydamp is a .damp-resisting, nlkaliproof, acidproof, black paint Of asphalt type. It is very heavy in body, and will remain in a semi-tacky and elastic condition indefinitely, thereby preventing the cracking of the film with the resultant penetration of dampness into the foundation walls. Sherwin-Williams Antydamp will cover, approxi mately 25 to 40 square feet, two coats tp the gallon. It comes ready for application and is applied cold, ex cept in very cold weather when it is necessary to heat slightly before applying. Antydamp should be applied in;full coats without endeavoring to brush the material out too mucl|, because the heaj/ier'the coating is; the more'protection it affords.

This,is advisable for two reasons: first, the control of the decorative effect in color, as required by the type of building, which paint affords, and the ease in which the building can be cleaned up in appearance and the change of color scheme effected. Second, painting a, concrete wall renders it watertight and prevents the appearance of hair line cracks and chipping off caused by the penetration of moisture and frost.

This section, therefore, is offered to provide information in `the. simplest.and most useful form which will enable the architect to specify* the definite procedure necessary to produce the desired effect;" Open and Close Grain Woods--The' majority of hardwoods, with the exception of maple, are open grain ; v> e,, have open pores which follow the figure at the *rain. The decorator turns this characteristic to advan tage when it is desirable to emphasize the character of the grain. For example, mahogany finishes, are im proved through emphasizing the grain with a black or cd-black paste filler. Silver gray finishes are improved by using a light colored toner, either white or gray, which Usually is lighter than the general color of the wood. Several years ago the mission finish was popular This consisted of a slain and a light coat of shellac and dull varnish. It left the pores of the wood unfilled, and served only to protect the.* wood, retaining a sort of. craftsman quality. The ;ame idea is used in so- called open pore finishes for walnut furniture and w k k 1- work. '* ,, * Gose-grain woods have no open pores and do not require tfye use of a paste filler. Needless to say, a paste filler is aft additional coat in the finishing process and natural!^ adds to the cost of-the finish. Architects should bear this in mind when selecting wood trim, where cost of finishing is an im|>ortant factor.

(Subsequent coats will depend entirely upon the architect's own selection of finish. The surface can either be painted with a regular lead, oil and zinc paint, fiat wall finish or enamel finish.)

This paint tends to hake to, a hard film on radiator, surfaces and tests made hy the Faint Manufacturers.Association of the United States upon radiators in their laboratories indicate that such a finish has a life of as high as nine to ten years without showing defects. Regardless of what types of paint are used in painting radiators, there is bound to lie a slight change in color.
