"No wall covering conforms to closely to these requirements as Bali's Sunitary Washable Listemper which has the important advant ages of being most economical and durable.
Hall's Distemper is applied with a whitewash brush, anving much in the cost of labour.
It sets hard, kills microbes and vermin, and disinfects.
It is made in a wide range of 70 colçurr, including rich dork as well as light tibis. The colours never inde, enabling furniture and pictures 10 be moved about a rein, without showing discoloured walla.
