Oil Stains
Need to Be
Mixed Well

| Here are q few dos and
don't's" to keep in mind when
using oil stains:
4 DO-remember that oil stains
have a pigment which settles
and so must be mixed well--and
frequently-in order to get a
uniform color on the wood.
/ DO-apply an oil stain with
either a brush or a rag, allow 1t
Ito penetrate from one to 10 min
Hutes and then wipe of with a
l.Iclean cloth.
j DO-regulate the shade of the
stain by the length of time be-
tween the application and the
lwiping: the longer the time, the
darker the shade.
DO-bear in mind that end
grain stains darker than the rest
of the wood: to prevent this, ap-
ply light coat of shellac to the
lend grain before staining.
DO-let the stain dry thor
oughly. apply a thin coat of shell
lac. sand very, very lightly, then
put on the finishing coat.
DON'T - forget that stain
must be applied to new wood or
to WOOD from which all old paint
Ior other finish has been removed.
I DON'T--neglect a thorough
preparation of the surface, since
the stain viii accentuate
scratches or other defects.
DON'Tallow the stain to set
too long or 1t win become sticky;
lif this happens, wipe with a tur-
ipentine-moistened cloth.

through certain pigments and
oils. When these are subjected to
heat, they form a spongy. insu-
Ilating layer on the painted sur
face.
Since the Army's needs in
paint are global in scale. the
newly developed coatings were
evaluated through tests in the
Arctic. desert lands and tropics,
as well as at Fort Belvoir. After
six-month and one-year expo
sures in varying climates, test
panels were returned to Fort
Belvoir and evaluated for fire
retardance.
In announcing the develop
ment, the Army emphasized that
Evening star., 1955-11-19

the new paints do not stop fires,
but do aid in minimizing dam
age and loss Of life. The Army
points out that such paints
could become a major civil de-
fense aid by reducing damages
through fires started by enemy
attacks.
