A1000 per cent Investment
That’s the way to look at painting—as an investment, not
an expense. Look around you at the houses going to rack
and ruin. What is doing it? The weather. There is only
one defense against weather and that is faint. But paint,
like weather, is of many kircc. Beware of the fair weather
paint. It does not piotect, it only deceives. Buy a paint
that has proved its staving power.
