Cleaning Paint.

The easiest and quickest way OF
cleaning paint is to have two pals of
water. one cold. TO which tablespoon.
full of ammonia has been added. and
one hot. with the addition of little
ammonia and soap powder With a
soft flannel wash the paint with the
soapy water. then rinse with the cold
water. using wash leather instead OF
the flannel. and wiring the leather fair.
~ dry Paint washed like this dries
with a nice polish. which no using OF
hot water alone will impart.
