Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-08-10

The natural beauty Of wood
may be enhanced and preserved
for years through the proper
choice and application of stains.
. The following procedures are
recommended by industry paint
experts to achieve the finest
results. whether the wood sur
face is to be stained to deepen
and beautify its own natural
color or to be stained In one
Of the new pastel colors to
harmonic with other interior
color schemes.
NEW WOOD-Furniture.
Woodwork and Floors: Make
certain the wood is thoroughly
dry. clean and sanded before
starting finishing operations,
Sanding should be done before

parts Of wood stain with the
natural wood filler. When con-
trasting pores are desired. such
as in creating lined effects. use
the wood filler without addition
of stain. Allow to dry at least
IL hours before using varnish.
Be sure to remove every particle
of excess filler before finishing
Bleaching: Bleaching is done
on bare wood to tighten dark
woods or to create new color
effects. particularly when 9
blond finish is desired. Apply
a good grade of wood bleach
with a rubber sponge, rag Oh
fiber brush after sanding sur
face. Allow bleach to act over.
night. then sand lightly before
continuing finishing operations
Glass, enamelware or hard rub.
Der containers should be usec
to hold the bleaching solution
and rubber gloves should bt
worn when using it.
Varnish Finish: Flow var
nish on across grain. Make
light finishing strokes parable
to grain with a brush not heav-
lily loaded with varnish. Brush
lightly until smooth and level
The first coat of varnish on new
wood should be thinned 10 pei
cent or more with turpentine Of
mineral spirits.
This provides deeper pene.

Furniture, Woodwork and
FOOFs: Remove the old finish
down to bare wood with a good
paint and varnish remover.
preferably one that is non
1ammable. Apply the remover
with brush or sponge, allow 1t
to blister the surface coating,
then skin OF with a putty knife.
Repeat this operation until the
old finish is completely re-
moved
Sand thoroughly clean when
dry. Old finish can be removed
from floors with a machine
sander, and floors should be
swept clean with a stiff broom
This should be followed up with
application of a tack rag to the
entire surface.
STAINING: Stir the wood
stain thoroughly in the con-
tainer Use full body, particu-
larry on hard woods. Apply
generously with a brush. let
dry i've to eight minutes. then
wipe of lightly with a clean
cloth so that a uniform color
prevails. Should darkened spots
develop, & gentle wiping with
a stain reducer will equalize the
color.
Let the stained surface dry at
least IL hours before using filler
or varnish. Soft woods are diff
1cult to stain uniformly owing
to variance in porosity, and
should be sealed with a wash
coat Of seven parts alcohol to
one part shellac before staining.
The strength of the wood stain
may be adjusted through use
of q stain reducer. This should
always be done for better con-
troll on soft, porous woods.
FILLING OPEN GRAIN: At
ter staining. apply a good nat
ural wood filler with a brush,
and let dry for five to ten min
utes or until q whitish cast
develops Then wipe Of with q
coarse cloth across the grain
so that the pores in the wood
will become filled. Finish by
wiping with the grain to obtain

SPONSOR SAFETY CHECK

The annual Safety Check Lane,
provided for the owner to ascertain
whether his car is in safe driving
condition, operated on a free and
voluntary basis, will be held in
Columbia on Thursday and Friday,
May 18th and 18th, from 1880 am.
til $3.50 pm. each day.
Motorists can, unknowingly, have
a brake light which fails to warn
the trailing car; turn signal light
which does not register; headlights
set too high to blind the oncoming
car, and at the same time rob the
motorist of his full scope of Wis
ion; brake which is a little too
slack for safety, and which some
times takes trained mechanic to
determine This check lane is being
sponsored by the Columbia Junior
Woman's Club and the Columbia
Jaysees, in cooperation with the
law enforcement officers of Tyr.
rell County. The presidents of the
sponsoring organizations are Mrs.
Marshall Swain and Roy Smith.
