"TERRACE HERALD, TERRACE, B,C,

BEAT HIGH
‘A FIFTY-DO

Many homeowners are cur-
rently beating inflationary
prices by doing most home im-
provement work themselves.
No extra mortgage or bank
loan is needed to paint a five-
room house or apartment and
today’s modern do-it-yourself
methods and materials make it
a fun job for Saturday after-
noons.

An economical all-latex sys-
tem also helps any team of man
and wife perform as well as a
staff of professionals at the
nominal cost of $16 for an av-
erage size room. This would be
$50 for five rooms.

A leading paint manufactur-
er recommends the all-latex
system which includes a cor-
responding enamel as a new
adjunct to latex wall paint, the
most popular house covering in
recent years.

A two-bedroom home for ex-
- ample, with bath and kitchen
running 10 x 10 feet, to 12 x 15
feet for a living-dining room,
will use four gallons of latex
wall paint and two gallons of
enamel. Cost is approximately
$45. Add $6 for roller, pan and

the’marvel of a new and lasting
look. The palette of fade-re-
sistant colors at the paint
dealer is wide and versatile, to
suit any taste or -decorating
scheme,

One tip, offered by the
O’Brien Corporation, cautions
do-it-yourselfers to make sure
the surface to be painted is
completely clean. Old soluble
paints, grease and dirt should
be washed off with soapy water
and dried, -Cracks and nail
holes may be repaired with a
water-mix patching plaster
and rough surfaces should be
sanded.

Latex enamel enjoys all the ,

benefits of its older sister with
a special function of painting
wooden trim, furniture and
cabinets, Odorless and easy to
apply, it covers in one coat and
dries in one hour,

Finally, the all-latex system

is easy cleanup when the job
is done. No mess or sticky snb-
stances remain to plague the
housewife. All tools can ‘be
washed in soapy water
