ONE important question
about painting is: How
many square feet will a
gallon of puint cover? It de
pends on the condition of the
building, and on the paint.
The common claim for paint
is, 300 square feet to the gal-
lon, two coats. As a rule
with paints, this is not true.
Devoe Lead and-Zinc Paint
covers 300 to 500 square feet,
so painters say. We think
300 not enough and 500 too
much, to claim for it, but both
have been true.
Devoe is a safe name
to go by in buying
paint; it's all paint,
and all good.
