New Aluminium Point
Hos Asphalt Base,
InsuIotes Old Roofs
By HiIson Munsey

Flat roofs neglected during the
war can now be recoated and insu-
lated at the same time with a paint
that consists of aluminium suspended
in asphalt as a base. The asphalt
is mined in Utah and is claimed tc
be much superior to the Trinidad
variety. The aluminium pigment
rises to the surface of the mixture
when it is applied and forms sort
of shingled coating.
This bright surface will divert
about 80 per cent of the power OF
the rays of the sun and so reduce
the temperature Of the room below
There will be found a difference OF
about Is degrees or more as COM
pared with "a roof coating not using
this rejecting surface. The base OF
asphalt also adds to the life of the
roof by renewal of the surface and
the weatherproofing qualities of as
phalt.
One great advantage of the paint
is that 1t Is sold as a mixture. 1t is
/ recommended for use on smooth OF
slate roll roofing, asphalt shingles
Stag or metal roofs. It should not
be used on wooden shingles because
the curling and Strengthening of the
shingles when the atmospheric con-
ditions change will break the coat
ing of asphalt and aluminium and
render 1t much less effective. It can
also be used for protecting outside
tanks, Hastings and metal fence
posts.
One Coat Sufficient.
A gallon of the paint will cover
approximately 300 square feet, de-
pending on the nature of the ma
terial to which it is applied and the
cost is only about a penny square
foot.
Before applying the paint the sur
face should be thoroughly cleaned
and any loose dust or gravel brushed
or washed off. If there is any re-

Table Top Marked by Flower Pc

Table Top Marked by Flower Pot.
Question: What can do for white
spots or rings made by water on a
mahogany finish? My table top was
marked by porous flower pot, and
I would like to remove the marks.
Answer: For a perfect job get a
cabinet maker or wood finisher to
do over the top and finish it for you.
If no one is obtainable, make a few
trials to find out the right method
for removal, for much depends on
the nature of the present finish.
One way is to polish with a mild
abrasive moistened with a drop of
a light household oil. For the
abrasive, use a scratches securing
powder, finely powdered rottenstone
or even cigar ash. Apply with your
fngertip, rubbing gently with the
grain. Other possibilities are drop
OF .turpentine or camphorated oil,
also rubbed on with the fingertip.
II the marks have gone in too
deeply, so that the finish is de-
stroyed, you may be able to improve
