FIKE-PUOOF PAINT, FROM OHIO.
rBIHIS Singular and valuable Substance is sold in fine powder,
JL then mixed with linseed oil to the consistency of thick paint,
and applied with a brush, and after an exposure ol a few months to
the atmosphere, this coating becomes a peifect slate or coat of mail
protecting whatever is covered from the action of the weather and
fiom fire.
It is a mineral substance, and has been found upon analyzatinn
by l)r. Chilton, of the city ot New Yoik. to cousLt ol larger pro
poitions of Silicia Alumine, Prot. Oxide of lion and Magnesia,
with lesser of Lime and Carbon. It is used extensively for cover
ing roofs of cither shingles, matched boards, tin, zinc,sheet non or
thick paper, if your shingles have been on for years, you have only
to sweep off the moss and lint, with a stiff broom, and cover with
two or three good coats, and in a few months \ ou have a perfect slate
roof, impervious to the action of the weather and fire. There is
nothing equal to it for steamboats and car decks, for all kinds of iron,
it forms a coating nearly as hard as the iron itself, and never cleavet
off It should be used for everything that you wish to piotect from
fire and weathei.
In some places a spurious article has been sold as the genuine,
therefore purchasers should be careful to buy of authorized Agent?
Every Bui. is marked 13L \KS’S FIREPROOF PAINT.
