Porch
Floors

An easy way to paint floors
and porches with a long
handled roller is to pour a
small amount of paint on the
floor and then spread it with
the roller.
This makes redipping in
the roller tray unnecessary.
If the floor is in bad con-
dition, remember that two
thin coats will give better
service than one heavy coat.
