Certain-teed Covers More Surface

YOU need less Certain-teed to cover
given area than you do ordinary
paints and varnishes, because the ingre-
dents in Certain-teed are highest quail

thoroughly ground and mixed by
machinery that makes no mistakes.
These things also account for the fact
that Certain-teed has greater hiding
