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 cream. (These quantities are only approximate and judgment niust be exercised in the

izing) If the Distemper has become still, hot water should be used, as it mixes more readily.

Whiting or Lime should be washer of the waits or ceiling before applying the Distemper. Wall papers may be painted without removing them, if the pattern is not too prossiment and if the paper contains no gold, but two coats will probably be required.

When walls are very porous or repaired, causing too much or unequal auction, we recommend a coal of size before using the Distemper. This prevents auction, and the Distemper, when dry, is more washable than it otherwise would be. For very damp walls give a best coat of "SISCO Damp Beslster, also apply this to all damp patefies and to places where the lime or salt is scrking through the pinster.

While Distemper No. 6 is sande for eilings and is not quite a washable as the other culcars. When necessary-10 gion any of the stende, Creum, (No. 17) should be used for mixing instead of while. Dry colours must not be used for altering the shades, as they take away the birding properties of the Distemper and do not mix evenly.

....

All shades markel by the side of the mumbers in Colour Bouk and on the show-cards, may be used for new plastered walls. Any other shades ehould not te used on damp plaster.

The Distemper should not be mixed too thinly, one goat is unmlly sufficient even on sew work, and will give a result equal to two costs of dil paint.

Three weeks after application, but not before, the Paint can be washed. This operation should

be done with a sponge weited with tepid water and passed gently over the wall.
