is preventa suction, and the Distemper, when dry, is more coal of size before using the Distemper. washable than it otherwise would be. For very damp walls give a first coat of "SISCO" Lamp Ileister, also apply this to all damp patches and to places where the line or salt is werking through the plaster.
d, causing too mich er unequal suction, we recommend. a
White Distemper No. B is made for ceilings and is not quite so washable as the other colours, When necessary to lighten any of the shade, Cream, (No. 17) should be used for mixing instead 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 Book and on the show-cards, may be ased for new plastered walls. Any other shades should not le used on damp plaster.
The Distemper slwuld not be mixed too thinly, one coat is usually suficient even on new work, and will give a result oqual to two cosis of oil paint.
Three weeks after application, but not before, the Point can be washed. This operation thould
be done with a spongo wetted with tepid water and passed gently over the wall.
