PROTECT YOUR BUILDINGS,
Which may be done with one-fourth the usual
expense, oy using our
PATENT SLATE PAINT,
MIXED READY FOR USE.
Firc-proof, Water-proof, Durable, Eco
nomical, and Ornamental.
A roof may be covered with a very cheap
shingle, and by application of this slate be
made to last from 20 to 25 years. Old roofs can
be patched and coated, looking much bettej-,
and lasting longer than new shingles without
the slate, for
One-third the Cost of Rcshingling-.
The expense of slating new shingles Is only
about the cost of simply laying them. The
paint Is fire-proof against sparks or flying
embers, as may be easily tested by any one.
IT STOPS EVERY LEAK.
And for tin or iron has no equal, as It expands
by heat, contracts by cold, and never cracks
nor scales. Roofs covered with Tar 8heathin;
Felt can be made water-tight at a small ex
pense, and preserved for many years.
This Slate Paint Is
EXTREMELY CHEAP.
Two gallons will cover a hundred square feet
of shingle roof, while on tin, iron, felt, matched
boards, or any smooth surface, from two
quarts to one gallon are required to one hund
red square feet of surface, and although the
Paint has a heavy body, it Is easily applied
with a brush.
No Tar is used in this Composition,
Therefore it neither cracks In winter nor runs
In summer.
On decayed shingles It fills up the holes and
pores, and gives a new substantial roof that
win last ior years, curled or warped shin
gles it brings to their places, and keeps them
there. It fills np alh holes in Felt roofs, stops
the leaks and although a slow dryer, rain
does not aflect It a few hours after anDlvmsr.
As nearly all paints that are black contain
f ar, be sure you obtain ouroENUlNE article,
which (for shingle roofs) Is
CHOCOLATE COLOR
When flrstapplled, changing in about a month
to a uniform slate color, and is to all Intents
and purposcs.SLATE. On
TIN ROOFS
Our red color Is usually preferred, as one coat
Is equal to five of any ordinary paint. For
BRICK WALLS
Our bright red is the only reliable Slnte Paint
ever introduced that will effectually prevent
dampness from penetrating nnd discoloring
the plaster.
These paints are also largely used on out
houses and fences, or as a priming coat on fine
uuuuings.
Our only colors are Chocolate, Red, Bright
Red, and Oranuk.
