Synthetic Enamel
Do you expect your newly painted
jwaodwork to take abuse? There is
on enamel made with a new syn
thetic oil base which, when dry,
can be immersed in boiling water,
treated with muriatic acid, and have
naphtha burned on its surface, and
come out intact. Crayon markings
can be scrubbed off without difficul
ty. Next time you paint your wood
work, investigate this enamel at
$5 20 a gallon.
, Water Expands
Outside pressure acting on the
surface of a body tends to prevent
Its expansion, and since water must
expand to freeze, it is obvious t’hat

4Pkave shown that the freezing point
of water is lowered .0075 degrees C.
