FOR USING
Hall's Sanitary Washable Distemper.
To Mix for use, add shout one plot of water to 5 ls, of Distemper and stir to the consistency of a good thick cream, (These quantities are only approximate and judgment must be exercised in the mixing.) If the. Distemper has become stiff, het water should be used, as it mixes more readily.
Whiting or Lime should be washed off the walls or ceiling before applying the Dlitemper Wall papers may be painted without removing them, if the pattern is not too prominent and if the paper contains no gold, but two cents will probably be required.
When walls are very porous or repaired, causing too march or unequal suction, we recommend a coast of size before using the Distemper. This prevents suction, and the Distemper, when dry, is more washable than it otherwin would ie. For very damp walls give a first cont of "81ECO" Damp Resister, also apply this to all damp patches and to places where the lime or salt is working through the plaster.
White Distemper No. 0 is aande for ceilings and is not quite so washable as the other colour, When necessary to lighten any of the shade, Cream, (No. 17) should be used for mixing ustead of white. Dry colours must not be 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 Rook and on the show-cards, may be used for new plastered wall. Any other shades should not he und ca damp plaster.
The Distemper should not be mixed too thinly, one sond is usually sufficient even on new work, and will give a resilt equal to two coats of oil paint.
Three weeks after application, but not before, the faint can be washed. This operation should be done with a sponge wetted with tegld water and passed gently over the wall.
