WHITE ENAMEL ON
DARK WOOD

Question: Last year our dark ma
hogany stained woodwork was done
over with white enamel. Now it is
cracking and the dark color is COM
ing through. Is there some way to
get better results next time we do it
over?
Answer: 1t is my guess that the
surface was not properly prepared
before the enamel was applied.
Paint will not adhere to a glossy
varnish, and the mahogany stain
should have been sealed in with
coat of shellac. Your best move is
to take off the finish with a hot solu-
ton of washing soda or trisodium
phosphate-three pounds to the gal
lon of water. After removing the
paint and varnish rinse the wood
with clear water. Then bleach
out the stain by coating literally
with hot saturated solution of OK
alic acid. Leave it on overnight
and then rinse well with clear wa
ter. When the wood is dry, smooth
if necessary, by rubbing with very
fine sandpaper. Wipe off the dust
and then finish according to the
manufacturers directions on the can
for new woodwork.

MODERNIZED BATHTUB

you tell me how?
Answer: Take off the legs by Slip
ping them out. Build a support of
two by tours in one corner of the
room on which the tub will rest,
wedging one end and side Of the
tub against the wall. Build a frame
around the tub, to be finished with
tile or some other waterproof ma
terial. The room walls should meet
the top edge Of the tub so that the
tub will catch water that drips from
them. Pipe connections should be
made according to convenience.
Bullying Linoleum
Question: What should I do for
linoleurn that has just begun to
bulge?
Answer: Cut slit across the mid
die Of the bulge with a razor blade,
following a line Of the pattern; a
line between two squares, for in
stance. Then work some 1inoleum
cement under the 1inoleum through
the slit with a knife blade, pressing
down first one side of the slit and
then the other. Use plenty of the
cement, wiping off wet smears on
the surface with turpentine. Press
the bulge back into place and put
on weights until the cement is dry.
Repairing Pottery
Question: I have a Wedgewood
pottery jug, pieces of which are
Clipped out and missing. Is there
any tenacious substance that could
use to fill in the missing pieces?
Answer: Genuine Wedgewood
should be repaired by an expert.
Home methods might look botched
and show crack-lines. But if you
still wish to try the job, use white
lead paste thickened with powdered
whiting. This will take some months
to dry hard. Names and addresses

New Carpeting Over Old
Question: We are going to re-
carpet our dining-room. The floor
is of poor, unfinished lumber. AS
both the new and old carpeting are
moth-proofed, would you think it
good plan to use the old carpeting
as a padding under the new?
Answer: Yes, but before laying
the carpeting, see that all irregu-
larities in the floor boards are taken
out-either by planning or scraping
with a floor sanding machine. The
smoother the floor the longer the
floor covering will last
