HINTS TO DECORATORS
-FOR USING
Hall's Sanitary Washable Distemper.
To Mix for use, add about one pint of water to 5 lbs. of Distemper and stir to the consistency of a good thick creatu, (These quantities are only approximate and judgment must be exercised in the mixing.) If the Distemper has become stiff, hot water should be used, ne it mizes more readily.
Whiting or Lime should be washed off the walls or ceiling before applying the Distemper. may be painted without removing them, if the pattern is not too prominent and if the opties no goid, but two coats will probably be required.
Wall
paper
When walls are very porouvor repaired, using too much or unequal suction, we recommend a cost of size before using the Distemper. This prevents suction, and the Distemper, when dry, is more Washable than it otherwise would Le. For very damp walls give a first coat of "SISCO" Damp Haine, also apply this to all damp patches and to places where the lime or salt ie werking through the plaster.
White Distemper No. 6 is made for ceilings and is not quite so washable as the other colours When necessary to lighten any of the shade, Cresin, (No. 17) should be used for mixing instead of white.
..
Dry colours must not to used for altering the shades, as they take away the binding properties of the Distemper and do not mix evenly.
All shades marked by the side of the numbers in Colour Book and on the show-cards, may be tied for new plastered walle. Any other shades should not be used on damp plaster.,
The Distemper should not be mixed too thinly, one cost is usually sufficient even on new
and will give a recult equal to two coats of oil paint.
Three weeks after application, but not before, the Paint can be washed.
Is die with a sponge waited with told water and passed gently over tas wall. ----
