The Reason i Indiana Indestructible Paint j Outwears All Others. i The universal complaint among Paint consumers islack of •' durability. Paint manufacturers widely advertise their secret •’ processes, wonderful formulas and scientific machinery, but the •; cold fact is they all make their paints in the same way, from the •’ same materials, mixed in substantially the same proportions. The * results are practically the same. Their paints flake, peel and J Itisan axiom that linseed oil is the life of . .paints; that •; when the oil is gone the paint comes off. This is true. The •? trbuble is with the pigments, they fail to protect the oil. White * lead, zinc, the oxides, ochres, barytes, and all the other stock 5 materials which are used as a base for paint, do not prolong the 5 life of oil. Some of them greatly shorten it. S Nature Makes a Durable Paint. | Nature however has provided a mineral paint which actually- 5 protects linseed oil and prolongs its life two to five fold, nlaking S a practically indestructible paint. ' S We own the only known mine of this material. This is not a theory, but 20 years of usage have demonstrated that: g It lasts from two to five times longer than any other paint 5 on earth. I S It penetrates the surface. Z It It drys like cement. • It is impervious to all atmospheric conditions. J It Pays To buy Paste Paint. • Our paint is manufactured in paste or condensed form. By » adding linseed oil to this you have a paint ready to use. In buy- •. ing m paste get an article which is not adulterated with -cheap oils and other mixtures which arc detrimental to its last- £ ing qualities. . . Ji We have no secret formulas. Our paint consists simply of J our oil protecting mineral pigment from our own mines, ground • in pure linseed oil, with sufficient coloring matter to give it the • desired shades. ! A gallon of our paste paint costs you no more than the J same quantity of good mixed paint, but when reduced with oil J will produce more than double the quantity. As_pure linseed • oil is the life of paint, and you can generally buy it for 50c per • gallon or less, why not mix it yourself and be sure of what you • are getting, and save more than half on the cost of your paint. • For Sale by • B.
