shellac varnish, spirit, naphtha, eocine aniline products, bye products of soap, tar,
ammonia, turpentine, these I mix in various quantities to suit the required
purposes.
For making my imitation metallic paints, and enamels, I use tar according to the
shade required, which number from 30 to 40 different shades, from 16th to 20th
part in combination with nitro benzole aniline product, and spirit according to the
consistancy or moisture necessary in forming the body according to the article, and
shade, and drying nature required for various purposes which these paints, and
enamels, are intended to be used for, also oil according to the climate it may be
sent to sufficient to keep it moist, or in liquid state, this is used in small quantities to
suit the various shades, and articles produced to according to the actual require-
ments.
Picric acid I use to produce the paleest shades, from the 20th to 30th part of the
whole body of other articles in combination or from the 20th to the 30th part of
the weight of the whole body, in combination, also gum, and shellac in combination
with oil, and lutecienne aniline product, from 25 to 30 and 40 per cent.

preparations or concentrated or liquid states, and according to the climate intended
to be sent to.
Turpentine I use as a dryer to suit climate from 3 to 20 per cent., in combination
with ammonia, each of these articles are to give a beautiful metallic lustre, and
beautiful colours, by gas light, and day light, for all kinds of decorations, artistic,
and fancy work, also for paper hangings, photography, toys, books, albums, cards,
fire ornaments, clocks, and many other purposes.
