NIILDEW is dark-colored fungus
1Vl growth which appears on shaded
paint surfaces exposed to excessive
heat and dampness.
To retard mildew, reduce linseed
oil and increase turpentine content
of paint. Mildew feeds on excess oil
content of soft, tacky paint films.
The addition of about one ounce Of
calomel or one-half ounce of mer-
curic chloride to each gallon of paint
will largely eliminate the possibility
Of fungus growth. Oercuric chloride
is very poisonous. Use with great
care.)
Do not paint over mildew. Stains
will work through running new paint
surface. Kill fungus by washing af-
fected areas with trisodium phos-
phate solution, one pound to gallon Of
water. Rinse with fresh water. Clean
surface when dry by sanding or
scraping.
Apply paint mixed on job to meet
mildew conditions. Usual first coat
formula on repaint work: parts (by
volume) soft paste white lead, parts
raw linseed oil, 2 parts turpentine.
Follow with finish coat of parts
Thy volume) soft paste white lead,
parts raw linseed oil, part turpen-
tine. Add VI pint of liquid drier to
each gallon of paint.
Q.-What do you recommend for
removing grease spots from uphols-
tered material?
A. - Carbon tetrachloride will
prove effective for removal of spots
containing oil or grease. AS it is non
explosive and non-combustible, it is
especially recommended for home
use. If carbon tetrachloride is not
available, use good commercial
cleaner, benzine, naptha, or lacquer
Nolvent.
,Q.-What treatment do you suggest
fo r bureau drawers which stick?
a.. Remove drawer and plane bot
tom e Iges or sides until it slides free
ly.
Never plane top edges. as this will
spoil ap pearance when drawer is
open. Fin sh off with paraffin applied
to bottom, edges and runways.
