VARNISHAo?ew;j
You can insure long life to
your linoleum by varnishing
it while new with HUET
ER'S FLOOR and LINQL
EUM VARNISH. The var
nished surface then takes the .
wear and saves the linoleum
beneath.
The bright pattern of print'
cd linoleum covered with this
clear, durable varnish, will
keepits freshness indefinitely.
A damp clot h or mop will re
move all dirt from the surface.
Varnishing the linoleum is
not difficult. A'light coat
should, under favorable con'
ditions, dry over-night, and
will last several months. You
need only tell us what surface
you wish to finish and we will
suggest the right varnish for
that purpose. Each Huetcr
Varnish is as fitted to do its
particular work as the Floor
nnd Linoleum Varnish is to
endure hard usace on floors.
Ynu can now paint your property and pay on
the Bass-Hiieler Monthly Payment Plan. Call
and let us explain this plan to you.
