Dear Sir: No man is more interested
in the look and wear of the paint on the
houses you plan than yon; not eyen the
owner; not even the painter.
And painters sometimes are suspected
of being more concerned for the look
than the wear. What is yonr opinion?
Which pays best. foT a painter to have
bis paint hist three years, or as long as
he can? lie can haye it last six years,
if he wants to.
Lead and oil lasts three; Devoe Lead
and zinc lasts six. Of course, conditions
effect the time of both.
Most painters know that zinc toughens
the lead; some use it.
Devoe lead and zinc is thorougly
ground in oil; the proportions are right,
and the mixture is thorough.
No x»ainter need mix; he can't afford
to. Hand work can't compete with
machine-work. He rnns no risk with
Devoe lead and zinc.
All interests lie in using it; yours, the
owner's, the painter's unless be wants
his paint to wear half as long.
Yonrs truly.
