CONDENSED PAINTING
EAGLE-PICHER PAINTING PRODUCT!
AGLE-PICHER has been manufacturing painting products since 1843. During this tim<
E the company has conducted countless tests to determine the ideal methods for formulatin and applying paints in order to achieve most satisfactory results. However, the cumulativ experience of these many years has been distilled into fairly simple recommendations. Thi manual contains basic formulas for durable paints adapted to various surfaces and averag conditions. It also includes data on surface preparation, on the number of coats required, am 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 tchange his formulas and procedure to meet them. Others should strictly follow the formula and recommendations given here, which are much more satisfactory, even under unusual con ditions, than haphaxard 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 tw< or three times the cost of the materials. Thus if repainting will be required within one o two years, the use of a minimum-cost short lived paint may be justified. But if repaintinj will be done only when the life of the origina paint is over, the high cost of labor makes i considerably more economical to use the mos durable paint there is, even though its initia cost may be a little higher than a short-live( cheaper paint.
It is important to remember that the servio of any paint depends upon the skill of th< painter. Reputable manufacturers can onl'j guarantee the composition of the paints thej 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 spedfications can be written for any job by adapting these data to conditions prevailing on the project. When master painters are& emp,loyedj, thuese rformulias may serve as a guide to materials and proportions. When less skilled workmen are employed, they may be made mandatory.

Te pure White Lead
for all types of Painting
%f-\ **
E lead as a paint pigment dates back to the Romans Ktst'2000 years ago. Its popularity has grown ever till it has become the standard ofcomparison. Searches
Reaper substitutes have produced many other paint Ibut unbiased authorities still agree that white lead
most universally reliable painting material.
jTA N DING CHARACTERISTICS
lute tead ispackaged in two forms--Heavy Paste and All-Purpose ,,3:Either is ideally adapted for both interior and exterior work. The fterehce is that AU-Purpose contains a small amount of turpentine,
special grinding process. This makes it easier to mix on the job.
raring--No Scaling
$hlte Lead unites chemically with linseed oil and forms a soft rpkint film. When the surface to which it has been applied exjjajid contracts with temperature^ changes, this elastic film Swi^ '1 contracts with it, so that it does not crack or scale.
Repainting Surface
gjfet'wears by slow, even chalking. An Eagle White Lead film lintthis way--not by cracking and scaling. It leaves a perfect for repainting--no burning or scraping is necessary. feS'-i'1 ^ Freely - Good Coverage
for surface, pure-white lead paint will hold its own in coverage most paints--and excel many of them. Furthermore, it brushes ^enabling a painter to paint more surface each hour he works,
gle White Lead paint film goes on evenly and smoothly.
f Hiding Power
sot particles in an Eagle White Lead paint form a solid mass jnjptnent that completely covers the surface. Its "refractive index"
ivmg it great opacity.
Easy to Mix on the Job
Oil is added to Eagle White Lead at the factory so that it is in ah easy-mixing 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 darkshades). Exact values are obtained by adding colors in oil. Color pigments are tightly held, minimizing fading.

ELEMENTS
F 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.
dualities 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 airing should present a smooth pjrface 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 vmface; it should dry in reasonable time and not Tscolor the pigment. Linseed is the most widely accepted oil, but certain special oils such as Eagle Hatting 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 lesd-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.
s t ep K PREPARING t h e l e a d p a s t e
Eagle AU-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. Ka&le Sublimed Blue Lead and Eagle Red Lead are prepared in the same way as Heavy Paste White Lead.
STEP 2. PREPARING t in t in g c o l o r s
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 likelead 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.

I N T F A I L U R E S -- Appearance, Causes and Remedies
ERY paint film eventually "wears out." The jSyjdeal way for a paint to wear is by slow, even diking, so that when the time to repaint finally comes, Jj surface is smooth, and requires only a minimum of Reparation before repainting. Defective performance
evidenced k by such failures as cracking, scaling, eling, fading and alligatoring, which may be caused improper paint formulation, improper workman-
or faulty construction. By studying the many
wm* . Iligatormg
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, len not severe, the cracked layer can be wire-brushed fff, before painting. Otherwise the entire paint coat "list be removed.

Resul ts 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.
types of paint failures, their causes and remedies, they may be entirely avoided or at least corrected at a minimum of expense. However, the more familiar one becomes with paint troubles, the more obvious'is the conclusion that 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.
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 A 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 or 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.
lering 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 properly formulated paint will avoid it.

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 repainting 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.

FORMULAS FOR INTERIOR WOODWORK
Specification Data: The room temperature should not be less than 7o F. 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 lower 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.

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 02. grain alcohol in 1 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.

Specification Data: Painting should be done only in dry weather when the temperature is not under 40 F., particularly if nights are likely to bring frost and moisture.
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.

$ AND DECORATIVE FINISHES
ECORATION of walls in other than flat or glossy monotones to add interest "livability" may be accomplished in a wide variety of ways by means
Sfptipples and low-relief textures, blends of opaque colors, transparent color lazes, or by endless combinations of these methods.
!e finishes are not much more expensive than an ordinary job of high quality Jilting. Their added cost is due largely to the extra labor involved and will ferefore vary with the type of finish desired and the skill of the painter in
^ _ g
ejected stipples and decorative finishes are illustrated to suggest the range of jjjcbrative treatments possible with Eagle White Lead paints and glazes made wU? Eagle Flatting Oil. The principal techniques include the following:
mppiiNc
Stippling in one of its manifold forms is the foundation for all fine interior work Stflat surfaces and also should be used as a base for work to be color glazed, [t: eliminates brush stroke marks, producing a surface that diffuses light and [adds interest and character.
main 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.
[Gained and brush stipples. More distinctive stippled finishes may be obtained fby using a whisk broom, various types of brushes, combs or similar tools to Iproduce 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 tby experimentation on trial panels. Degree of relief is largely governed by ^consistency of the paint, while character of texture is determined by the implejments and stroking employed. The scope of textures possible is indicated by [Figures 3 and 4.

dazing gives the effect of sunlight passing through stained glass windows, while pne particular method of glazing known as "antiquing" may be used to give f 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 mto cloud-like effects. The safest way to be sure of obtaining the desired effect

For Fine Exterior and Interior Enamel Finish
RIPOLIN is internationally known as a fine, durable eiiamel. 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.
'he 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 vdries 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 ^gway to a glossy, tile-like finish, free from brush
rks and will give lasting beauty to all surces where a high grade enamel finish is desired, ipolin is furnished in High Gloss, Semi-Gloss JCEgg-shell) and Dead Flat White. Any finish de sired between the High Gloss and Dead Flat can be obtained by intermixing in varying proportions. To obtain any of the lighter shades, White Ripolin may be tinted by the use of pure color ground in Japan, ||p?*iing down the color with a small quantity of
jentine and adding slowly to the enamel until the esired color is obtained. The addition of a large fgnwjuit'of coloring matter to obtain any of the darker shades is not recommended. We will supply Sibber shades on order.
Ripolin is to be used in colors, Ripolin Un seat tinted the same shade as the finishing coat
'jild be used.
_4I>olin of itself will show a perfectly smooth, even hrface without brush-marks, but will not cover
cgularities in the under-coating. For this reason at 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.
Ripolin First Coat covers approximately 300 square feet per gallon, 2 coats. Exterior Ripolin covers approxi mately 360 square feet, 2 coats.

INTERIOR WALL FINISHES
PLASTER WALLS (ROUGH and SMOOTH) and WALL BOARD . . . 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 *4 Part of plaster of Paris to 34 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.

CASEIN PAINT ...
REFLECT-O-LITE is a paint furnished in semi-paste 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.
Reflect-O-Lite covers solidly with one coat and has no lingering or strong penetrating odors. The instances where size is necessary are few. Reflect-O-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. Fill all cracks, nail holes and damaged spots with Patch ing Plaster. Prime all patches.
Add one part of water to two parts of Reflect-O-Lite ` slowly and stir continually until evenly mixed. Apply by ! brushing, flowing out evenly to avoid brush marks.

NOTE: The red-lead priming coats offered in these specifications are mixed on the basis of 33 pounds of dry red-lead to the gallon of linseed oil. Experience has shown that a primer of this composition gives maximum durability and service, particularly where exposure conditions are severe as in warm, moist climates or near the seacoast. If, however, exposure conditions are not so severe it is frequently possibe to use a lighter weight primer containing a lower percentage of pigment and secure perfectly satisfactory results.
For this purpose, National Lead Company offers Pure Red-Lead Paint No. 25 and Pure Red-Lead No. 16. Both are 100% pure red-lead paints, the former mixed on the basis of 25 pounds of dry red-lead to one gallon of vehicle, the latter on the basis of 16 pounds of dry red-lead to one gallon of vehicle.

HOW SHOULD PALM WEAR?
"ince all paint must sooner or later lose its ability to -:otect the surface and improve appearance, it follows that :ost structures are periodically repainted. The intervals
feen paintings depend on local conditions, the owner's de and pocketbook and, of course, the lasting quality of paint itself.
f we assume that a frame house receives two coats of t at an average interval of five years, there will have (including the original three-coat job) twenty-one
gts of paint- applied before the dwelling reaches its fifbirthday. And if ever)* one of these paint coats had
t its original thickness, a mighty thick coating would ye been built up--a coating so heavy that the original
-er would have a tough time hanging on to the wood. Pt? with white-lead paint no such heavy, thick, inelastic
is progressively piled up. At the close of each average ye-year period, the film will have worn down sufficiently
that each new two-coat job will not pile up a film that itually might fall of its own weight.
ihe slow, even wearing-down that is characteristic of pure 'te-lead paint has other things to recommend it besides
of keeping the film at a safe thickness over a long span gtepaintings. One advantage is a so-called self-cleaning dperty. As the surface of the film slowly chalks the dust jQ dirt is loosened too, so that wind and rain can effect its ^oval. Further, the chalking surface requires no expen se preparation before repainting--a quick dusting off is I that is needed. Moreover, this type of surface provides
CLOSE-UP OF A PORCH COLUMN ON WHICH FIFTY-TWO COATS OF DUTCH BOY WHSTE-LEAD PAINT HAVE BEEN APPLIED OVER A PERIOD OF YEARS
The smooth, gradual wearing away, characteristic of white-lead paint, has prevented the building up of an excessively thick and heavy paint coaling.
excellent anchorage for the repaint coats--the pigment and vehicle in the fresh paint can get down into the old film.
Still another virtue of a paint that wears down slowly as time goes on is that it prevents the building up of a thick coating that blunts and blurs the fine outlines and details of parts of a building. It is not at all uncommon to find stately old residences that have lost much of their original archi tectural charm simply because clean-cut details are smoth ered with piled-up paint films.
WHITE-LEAD FOR INTERIORS
Abovc:
WHITE-LEAD PAINT HAS LONG BEEN USED TO PROTECT AND BEAUTIFY BUILDINGS LIKE THIS.
The paint for interior walls.and woodwork should also be selected and specified with an eye to the future. In other words, today's paint should always make a safe foundation for succeeding coats no matter how many nor over how long a period they may be applied.
There are many paint users who have discovered that the paint they selected in good faith today didn't show its true colors for several subsequent repaintings. With white lead there is no need to risk subsequent costly troubles. There are plenty of buildings whose interiors have been white-lead painted for twenty, thirty, forty and more years. White-lead's performance is a matter of recorded history and not one of hopeful prophesy.
Of course, this is just one of the advantages o made with Dutch Boy white-lead and Lead M This paint brings to interiors that solid beauty o characteristic of white-lead jobs. With it, the p produce any tint or shade of color specified. He cr vide also the degree of flatness best for ideal lightin
It's a durable paint, too. Where conditions dem high standard of cleanliness through frequent washin paint can "take it." It stands up under even careless'; bing and harsh soap powders.
RED-LEAD FOR METAL SURFACES
The specifying of paint as a building material must necessarily include the protection of metal surfaces from rust and deterioration. There are few structures today that do not have metal work that needs such protection.
Dutch Boy red-lead Has become the standard of efficiency in measuring the life and effectiveness of metal protective paint. Not only does it stick so tight that it becomes almost a part of the surface it covers but, like white-lead, is a longlasting, economical paint... a "true member of the Dutch Boy line."
It is always to the best interests of the architect or engi neer, the owner and the structure itself to specify Dutch Boy red-lead paint of the proper type and formulation to fit
10 the job.
DUTCH BOY PAINTING
d it c h b o y w h it e -l e a d
Dutch Bov 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 whitelead has been vised 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 while-lead can be used for all jobs ...on interiors as well as exteriors... for flat or rwell as gloss fini.-hes... are sold in 100-3b. steel kegs find 12H-lh. steel pails.
DUTCH BOY LINSEED OIL
Dutch Boy linseed oil is clear, uniform and well settled. Since it is easy 10 adulterate linseed oil but. difficult to detect the adultera tion. the safest procedure in preparing specifi cations is to specify a brand of known purity and quality. Two types of strictly pure lin seed oil--raw and boiled--are marketed under the Dutch Boy trademark. Each can is sealed at the factory to assure that pure Dutch Boyoil reaches the job. Both types are sold in 1-sral. and 5-gal. cans.

THE
DUTCH BOY
LINE
A quality line of paint products is marketed under the Dutch' Boy trademark. It includes nearly alt the materials needed for painting any type of sur face, interior or exterior.
To the architect this Dutch Boy line offers a definite check on the quality of every hrnshful of paint. Inferior materials--even those used as spar ingly 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 prepara tion of specifications--they can be made "Dutch Bov" throughout. Furthermore, the presence on the job of the brilliant orange and black conlainers facilitates inspection.
DUTCH BOY COLORS IN OIL
Dutch Boy Colors have both true tone and high strength. Both these qual ities are important in se curing sharp, clear tints that bring out the beauty of a colored paint job whether exterior or inte rior. In addition. Dutch Boy Colors are soft! They mix into paint, quickly and easily without lumps or streaking. There is a wide range of colors in the Dutch Bov line. No worry about inability to produce the color specified. Dutch Boy Colors come in friction-top 3 -gal.. 1-qt. and H'-pt. cans and in 2-uz. tube!-.
DUTCH BOY
LEAD MIXING OIL
Dutch Boy Lead Mixing Oil is a companion vehicle to Dutch Boy lin seed oil. It mixes perfectly with whitelead for the sealing and decoration of plaster, wall board, concrete and stucco --whether on the interior or exterior. It dries to a soft flat finish. The surface is free from hrushmarks or shiners. It retains its good appear ance. despite frequent washing and everyday wear and tear. Dutch Boy Lead Mixing Oil is available in sealed 1-gal. and 5-gal. cans.
DUTCH BOY RED-LEAD
`pure red-lead excels other paint materials as a protection Ji so does Dutch Boy red-lead--that is, highly-oxidized iContaining more than 97% Pb304--excel other red-ieads ^-pwer true red-lead content. Paint, made from highly ^red-lead has better keeping qualities. It is easier to apply
and has a greater spreading capacity. It produces a uniform film of greater density and thus is more durable and more resistant to destructive atmospheric influences.
Dutch Boy Paste red-lead is red-lead ground in pure linseed oil. Sold in 100-lb. kegs, 50. 25 and 12M?*lb. steel pails.

BOOK of specifications can ever hope to cover every eventuality, and accordingly ^ The Sherwin-Williams Co. believes that the greatest offering it has to give architects builders and contractors is service, tff We hope that any user of these pages who needs any further help, advice, or suggestion, will refer to the list of cities on the back cover of our Catalog, where Sherwin-Williams offices are maintained. A telephone call to any of these offices will bring an experienced representative to your office promptly. At its Cleveland headquarters, The Sherwin-Williams Co. maintains a complete decorative service for customers or clients who wish to make use of it. There Is no charge for the service, and The SherwinWilliams Decorative Studios are prepared to make special suggestions, and furnish proper specifications for any house, apartment, church, school, theatre, or public building. If any architect, builder, or contractor wishes to avail himself of this service, all he needs to do is to write The Sherwin-Williams Decorative Studios, Cleveland, Ohio, outline his ideas or his problems, and give as much information about the job at hand as is possible. Our experienced staff will promptly give him the help he needs, without obligation of any sort.
iffYEARS AGO, WHEN SHERWIN-WILLIAMS WAS YOUNG, the founders of the company adopted
general rule the policy best described by the phrase "A Finish for Every Surface," and all the developments H.:' ^the research and technical departments since that time have been guided and directed with that in mind. lip gjhe result of this policy is that the complete Sherwin-Williams line is a long one. H embraces not only those ^ypes of finishes generally accepted for architectural use, but a complete line of Industrial materials, each de
igned and manufactured to do a particular job. There is a Sherwin-Williams product for every surface in house, actory, mill, office building, hospital, or any other type of structure. In addition Sherwin-Williams offers to
e manufacturer special materials with which to finish the products of his factory. (J The development of an extensive variety of materials has resulted in a fund of knowledge and experience on the part of our
echnical Research Department, as to what various types of finishes will do under varying conditions. Almost s, when presented with a particular problem, a regular item in the Sherwin-Williams line can be found
^satisfy all the given requirements. When a regular item is not available, the Technical Department is always Jppared to develop new materials to meet these specific conditions. 'HAT THE S-W NAME ON PAINT MEANS Briefly, the Sherwin-Williams name on a particular paint eans that all the Technical Advice, all the practical tests, all the perfection in manufacturing progress, avail-
to the largest makers of paints and varnishes in the world, have been brought to bear upon the development the manufacture of the product in the can. In other words, that special paint, made for a particular use, for a particular type of surface, is the best material that it is humanly possible to make for that purpose. For when Mr. Henry Sherwin and Mr. Edward Williams founded the company years ago, they concluded ~L'^1e'r materials would be quality materials--and the best quality materials that they could make, regardless aihy other consideration. That original policy has been strictly adhered to by the management of the company
since. In specifying Sherwin-Williams products the architect may know that he is giving his client the best can k obtained for the purpose.

/adequate protection of structural steel requires that the JFective coating shall be as completely impermeable as jssible, to exclude water, air, or fumes from contact with
metal.
priming coat must:
Provide lasting adhesion or anchorage to the metal.
Prevent corrosion by maintaining an inhibitive or chemically basic condition at the metal surface.
Provide a hard, impervious film having sufficient elas ticity to accommodate itself to contraction and expan sion of the metal.
lerwin-Williams Kromik Metal Primer is a strong drying weed Oil Primer, composed of Lead Chromate In comwiation with substantial amounts of Red Lead, White Lead, She Oxide, and Iron Oxide. Kromik Primer is noticeably Easier to apply than Red Lead, is not affected by sulphur ies, and shows remarkable durability where structural feel is permitted to stand long periods of time before be3 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-EIastic, 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 mosl
careful supervision, from pigments, colors, oils, and drier!
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."

Floor Varnish
The fundamental requirements for a floor varnish are fhat it must dry hard and tough without being brittle. It must be resistant to both hot and cold wafer as well as ordinary soap solutions, it must be rapid-drying. SherwinWilliams Mar-Nof Varnish fulfills these requirements. It pro duces a tough, tenacious film, pale in color, and dries to walk on over-night.
Inferior Woodwork Varnish
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.

NOTE: Even where a hand rubbed finish is specified, the use of Satin 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.
Heavy Duty Wood Floors
S-W Floor Seal is designed to toughen and harden wood floors where extra heavy duty makes a varnish surface im practical. 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 floor oils. Recommended for new floors, of either hard or soft woods.
Gymnasium Floors
S-W Gym Floor Finish is built specifically to withstand the wear and tear on gymnasium floors. Tough processed oils are reinforced with hard resins to give excellent pene tration as well as surface building. Gym Floor Finish is nonskidding and minimizes rubber tracking and skid burns.

ISAYE-LITE WHITE f AIK'
JFOR INDUSTRIAL
Save-Lite is the name which identifies a complete line of Interior White Finishes manufactured and offered by TSherwin-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.
the standpoint of light reflection and distribution, Save-Lite Eg-Shel offers some advantage by comparison with either the Fiat or the Gloss. The accompanying drawing illustrates the comparative distribution of light reflected at various
Sherwin-Williams Save-Life is manufactured In three de crees of gloss--Flat, Eg-Shel and Full Gloss. It can be applied to any interior surface -- wood, metal, concrete, plaster or composition board. The materia] is formulated in p 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 ffme after application, its freedom from yellowing being one of its outstanding features.
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
Gl o s s a n d Eg g -Sh e-l l Wh it e s
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 'i of industries. Fume Resisting Save-Lite is manufactured in 1 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 3 required under the conditions prevailing in rubber plants, f 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 "1
Gloss and Super Fume Resisting Gloss are two remarkable 1
products, without counterpart, in this field at the present %
time.
'll
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.
SPECIFICATIONS FOR SAVE4.ITS INTERIOR WHITE FAINT
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 undercoater 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.
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-Shel with out damaging the work.
HO THREE-COAT WORK
For the best possible results on new work, three coats arejf 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
45A TWO-COAT WORK
It is recognized that in much industrial construction, twoj| coat work is used in the interest of economy. Save-Lite ma*| ferials due to their unusual quality are particularly wellj adapted to this type of 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-She! 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.
FUME CONDITIONS
Save-Lite Fume Resisting Flat, Semi-Gloss or Full Gloss, also Save-Lite Kem-Fume-Resisting 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 a technical representative of the paint manufacturer is suggested to the end that the materials selected will meet all of the conditions involved.
14
On new work and non-porous reasonably dry brick and conj Crete masonry, Save-Lite Undercoater should be used as| the first coat. The superior hiding power of Save-Lite Ur|| dercoater and Save-Lite Eg-She! will materially assist fn| overcoming the tendency of knots to show through on woo< ' ceilings.
For exceptionally absorbent surfaces such as Celotex^ Mai? sonite and other insulating wall boards, the first coat shouk be S-W Tri-Seal.
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 tmpo* sible to eliminate completely the hazards of painting unde^ such circumstances. If the wall is not too damp, Save-Lit* Primer and Sealer used as the initial coat will reduce th| danger of lime burning. A neutralizing wash coat of Zin< Sulphate solution prior to painting will also be helpful.
For the final coat, Save-Lite Flat, Eg-Shel, or Gloss ma| be used.
