WHAT IS ALABASTINE? 

ALABASTINE is the recognized cold 
water tinting material. It comes to you 
in 21/2-lb. and 5-lb. packages ready for use 
by mixing with cold or hot water. 

Your hardware or paint dealer will sup- 
ply you with color cards showing 21 beauti- 
ful tints and white. By intermixing a 
great many shades can be produced. 

Your walls can be made to harmonize 
with your furniture, draperies, etc., at 
small cost, only a fraction of cost of paint 
or paper. 

ALABASTINE is easy to mix and easy 
to apply. Directions will be found on the 
following pages. 

PATENTS AND IMPROVEMENTS 

Mr. M. B. Church, President of this Com- 
pany, was the original inventor of ALA- 
BASTINE in 1875. He has continued to 
exercise his inventive genius making num- 
erous improvements which have been cov- 
ered by patents. The last Canadian Patent 
is dated August 15, 1916. 

Besides the great care required in the 
manufacture of ALABASTINE, it is vitally 
necessary that the materials used be of the 
very best quality for the purpose, which is 
the result of many years' experience of the 
present management. The method of 
manufacture we use is the only way, yet 
discovered, in which the best grade of hide 
stock glue, used by us, can be manipulated 
so that it will mix with cold water. So 
called cold water paints on the market 



/ 



a - 

made with low grades of glue, which partly 
dissolve in cold water, are not in the same 
class with ALABASTINE, being unsani- 
tary, because they draw damp, become 
sour, mouldy and peel off in a short time. 

Great care and long experience has also 
been used in selecting permanent and un- 
fading colors, and the best covering, easiest 
working mineral base materials. 

We now call ALABASTINE "slow set- 
ting" because it jellies to brush on easily, 
within a few minutes after mixing; and 
what is more important, it will not set hard 
in the dish as formerly if kept mixed over 
night: 

These new process goods dry out very 
slowly on the wall; this is an improvement 
which makes it easy for one man to handle 
a large surface working alone, the edges 
of the coated work remaining wet a suffi- 
cient time to allow the surface to be 
finished without laps or brush marks. 

ALABASTINE works and covers well 
over plaster, brick, burlap, cotton, beaver 
board, plaster board, wooden surfaces or 
even wall papers, and can be applied over 
painted, shellacked or varnished surfaces, 
if the same are hard and dry. On a surface 
in good condition, one pound will cover 
from 55 to 65 square feet and upwards. 

PREPARING THE WALLS 

Old coats of Alabastine may be sponged 
from the wall if first whetted thoroughly 
with warm water. Kalsomines which 
require boiling water and which cannot be 



/^ 



readily removed by washing are unsani- 
tary. The accumulated coats peel and 
make unsightly surfaces. 

To produce durable work, always clean 
off all loose dirt, whitewash or old coats of 
Kalsomine, or loose wall paper, before 
applying Alabastine. 

All surfaces to be coated should be gone 
over and all damages such as nail holes and 
cracks filled up level with either "Alabastic 
crack filler" or a plastic mixture made up of 
one-third plaster of Paris and two-thirds 
ALABASTINE. We have seen strips of 
old newspaper used to cover cracks, small 
pieces set over nail holes. This was done 
as the coating proceeded, the paper being 
coated and laid on with the ALABASTINE 
as a binder and at once coated over. In 
drying out the paper did not show through. 
Stains may be covered up by the same 
method. 

Old Painted Walls 

Such walls are usually dirty and greasy 
from an accumulation of oil or smoke. 
They should be cleaned before coating. Use 
sal-soda, pearl ash or any strong soap to cut 
the dirt. 

Ordinary Plastered Walls that have 
stood until they are thoroughly dried out 
and seasoned form an ideal ground for 
ALABASTINE just as they are, if they are 
free from dust. But so many walls are ab- 
normal from lime action and other causes 
that it is best practice to size for all best 
work. 



Sizing Materials 

The various sizing preparations given 
below may be used with confidence. They 
are in use by the trade, and are usually to 
be relied upon. 

Sizing for Walls 

No. 1 

A glue size is the cheapest, it is easily 
made and usually gives good results as it 
stops the suction of absorbent surfaces. 
This sizing is in common use. To make size 
for a large room soak one quarter pound of 
good glue for two hours in one quart of 
water, then dissolve to make one gallon of 
size. 

No. 2 

Any quick-drying varnish or a hard oil 
of fair quality thinned with turpentine, or 
even with benzine, will make a good, strong 
size. This size will dry in a few hours and 
usually gives satisfaction. 

No. 3 

A Cheap Size for Sand Finish Walls: 

Dissolve any good hard bar soap in water, 
and apply to form a very thin and almost 
imperceptible film on the plaster. If too 
much soap is applied it will dissolve and 
soften the coats. It can be applied more 
freely on sand finish, and is a useful size for 
such surfaces as it will neutralize lime and 
stop suction. 



DIRECTIONS 

For Church's Cold Water Alabastine 

Our New Process Alabastine has many 
points of excellence over our former make 
of goods. It is the superior of all hot or 
cold water kalsomines. When mixed and 
applied according to directions, it will not 
rub off, crack or peel, and will make a per- 
fect, solid, smooth surface free from laps. 

IMPORTANT: In order to avoid lumps 
in mixing, it is necessary to observe the 
following directions: Put one quart water 
in a pail and stir in the contents of a 5 lb. 
package. For a 2 1/2 ^- package use 1 
pint water. Keep stirring until smooth 
and free from lumps. Afterwards thin to 
suit. This will require from one pint to 
three half pints additional water, depend- 
ing on the condition of the surface to be 
coated, whether absorbent or not. Be 
careful not to mix too thin. In cold 
weather use warm water for mixing and 
thinning. 

In cold weather and in cold rooms, should 
the mixed Alabastine jelly up too stiff to 
spread freely, the mixture should be warm- 
ed. 

METHODS IN COATING 

There are a few simple rules to observe 
in applying Alabastine or other water 
color coatings to ceilings or walls. 

In the first place always use a bristle 
brush, usually six or seven inches in width, 
never a fibre whitewash brush. 



Take notice that a painter never at- 
tempts to coat a dwellinjiC house ceiling 
from a chair, a table, or a single step-lad- 
der. He uses two step-ladders or trestles 
and a board or plank. These form a scaf- 
fold across the room. 

In a room 12 x 15 ft. in size, with a 
ceiling 9 ft. in height, a board across two 
tables would enable one to reach the ceil- 
ing. The scaffold is always placed across 
the narrow way of the room and at the 
end in which there may be a window, as 
it is best to work from the light, not to- 
wards the light. 

Before beginning to coat, it is usual to 
close all windows and doors, to shut off 
drafts, in order to retain all moisture in 
the room while coating the ceiling surface. 

Now notice, the painter begins to coat 
in one corner of the ceiling, and carries a 
coated strip clear across the end of the 
ceiling. He then returns and coats an- 
other strip, and another, until he has the 
whole ceiling covered. Usually these 
strips of coated water color are not more 
than from 8 to 12 inches in width. This 
method of coating keeps the edges of the 
work in a wet state, and prevents laps and 
blemishes. As soon as the ceiling is coat- 
ed over, the windows and doors are thrown 
open to dry the work quickly. 

To coat the walls of the room, a scaffold 
is not required. The usual practice is to 
begin to coat at the top of the wall in a 

8 



corner and to carry a strip down to the 
base. Then repeat this until the wall is 
covered. 

There are three reasons why a painter 
can always produce good Alabastine work. 
First, he uses a bristle brush. Second, he 
mixes his Alabastine according to the 
directions on the package. Third, he 
properly prepares the surface to be coated. 
This is written to enable you to do like- 
wise. 

Brushing One Coat Work 

Brush ALABASTINE upon the wall with 
a full brush, same as you apply a shop- 
made kalsomine. 

Apply plenty of the mixture; it will 
spread freely and work nice and cool. When 
the wall is in good condition and free from 
loose dirt, one coat will produce an excel- 
lent finished job. But if this first coat has 
to overcome serious defects in the wall that 
would ordinarily be cured by sizing, a sec- 
ond coat may be required to give this result 
— i.e., a clear, solid surface. 

Second Coating 

Just as soon as the water leaves the first 
coat it is ready to recoat if desirable. It 
is not necessary to wait for a hardening 
process to take place, as ALABASTINE 
dries out hard. It will give you a surface 
just as beautiful on the second coat as the 
first; in this it differs from kalsomine, 
which will not look so well recoated. 



While best work is done with one coat of 
ALABASTINE, as all painters expect of 
their best kalsomine. yet a second coat will 
work well. When this is required, it should 
be made either thicker or thinner than the 
under coat. Over a fairly heavy coat the 
practice is to apply a light finishing coat. 
The slow setting ALABASTINE second 
coats better than anything else on the 
market. 



ALABASTINE as a Paint for Exterior 

Use 

To apply over brick, tile, rough cast, 
cement, or for coating rough lumber or old, 
weathered, wooden surfaces, mix five 
pounds of ALABASTINE in one quart of 
boiling water and when thoroughly mixed 
free from lumps add one quart of raw or 
boiled linseed oil (the raw oil stands the 
weather better than the boiled) ; stir well 
together. Thin with water to best brush- 
ing consistency, and apply one good, round 
coat. This will look equal to two or three 
coats of paint, but will dry flat like a water 
paint. It will wear as long and look 100 
per cent, better than any one coat of oil 
paint. The material cost will be but a frac- 
tion of the cost of oil paint. A brilliant 
outside white may be obtained with one 
coat of ALABASTINE. All light tints look 
well and give more satisfactory results for 
one coat outdoor work than the deeper 
tones. 

10 



To Use as a Primer Under Faint 

If used as a primer, or undercoat, under 
paint on any surface, mix in boiled linseed 
oil to the proper consistency and pass 
through a strainer (a piece of cheese cloth 
is excellent for this purpose). This prim- 
ing mixture is equal to the ready mixed 
paint at much less cost. Priming should 
stand several days to harden before a 
second coat is applied. Always use ALA- 
BASTINE that will match the finishing 
coat. 

A Corps of Artists at Your Bidding 

The Alahastine Company employs artists 
whose services are at your disposal. In 
other words, if a painter has a house to 
decorate and will write the Company, 
giving a diagram of the interior with size 
of rooms, including height and other essen- 
tial information, the Company will, without 
charge, have its artists prepare and submit 
color suggestions for the decorating of each 
room so that people may know before they 
start just what colors they will secure. 
These suggestions will be made from our 
regular tints, applied on paper with a 
brush, and will be absolutely accurate. 

We have blank forms which we furnish 
on application, and if these are properly 
filled out we will know just what you 
require. 

In Wall Tinting two color combinations 
are very popular and artistic. Apply one 
of our regular tints for the side walls of the 

11 



room, and for the ceiling use from four to 
six parts of white ALABASTINE mixed 
with one part of the wall tint. If less con- 
trast is desired use less white in the celing 
mixture. 

The wall color may be carried up to the 
ceiling, and a stencil border placed upon 
the wall tint close to the celing line, or the 
ceiling tint may be dropped down on the 
wall from l2 to 18 inches to form a border, 
which may be either left plain or a stencil 
pattern placed upon it. 

Another way is to use one regular ALA- 
BASTINE tint for the wall, and another" 
for the ceiling. 

The following colors go nicely together: 

In this list we name one tint for the ceil- 
ing, and give the various tints that look 
well in combination with it for side walls. 

With ceiling No. 17. Side walls 4, 10, 15, 
18, 31, 38. 

With ceiling No. 14. Side walls 10, 15, 
21, 31, 33, 39. 

With ceiling No. 15. Side walls 4, 9, 13, 
18, 21, 31. 

With ceiling No. 15. Side walls 35, 37, 
38, 39. 

With ceiling No. 5. Side walls 4, 9, 10, 
31, 38, 39. 

With ceiling No. 12. Side walls 4, 10, 18, 
21, 33.

With ceiling No. 31. Side walls 10, 13, 
37, 39. 

With ceiling white. Side walls 4, 5, 9, 
10, 12, 15. 

This list of 43 combinations may be 
varied indefinitely by intermixing tints. 

Premium Brush OfTer to Painters 

Every Painter should cut the word ALA- 
BASTINE from the side of the large and 
small packages. We redeem them. 150 
large words from the full size or 300 from 
the half size package sent to us by post 
entitles the sender to one 7-inch Alabastine 
brush or send 100 from full size or 200 from 
half size packages and receive $2.50 in 
cash. Don't fail to make this saving. It 
is equal to a premium of 2^2 cents on every 
full size package used. 

How to Obtain Stencil Premiums 

We offer a stencil premium to those who 
are using Alabastine, and who will comply 
with our stencil offer. 

Every user of ALABASTINE may obtain 
the stencils listed in this catalogue by mail- 
ing us three labels taken from the bottom 
end of a full size Alabastine package, or six 
labels from the end of the half size pack- 
age, for each stencil. Ten Cents must be 
sent to cover postage and packing for each 
stencil so ordered. 

When ordering Stencils be sure that you 
select a stencil pattern that will be from 
three to four inches narrower than the 

13 



space it is to be used to decorate. For in- 
stance, when a border is eighteen inches in 
width, the stencil pattern chosen should 
not be more than twelve or fourteen inches 
in width. See cuts and price list pages 
39-80. 

In our list of stencils the size and width 
is the exact size of the pattern; no allow- 
ance is made for margins. 

The stencils come ready for use. They 
are cut from strong tag manilla, and are 
oiled before they are shipped, but they will 
last much longer if given a coat of shellac 
before using. 

A guide or key is cut at each end of 
every stencil to enable the operator to con- 
nect the pattern to form a continuous 
design. For price list and patterns of 
stencils see pages 39 to 80. 

How to Use Stencils 

A Stencil Brush. If a regular stencil 
or pounce brush is not procurable, a good 
substitute may be had by taking a round or 
oval paint brush and binding on a piece of 
felt or cloth half way down the bristles, to 
stiffen the bristles and prevent the brush 
from spreading. The brush should be well 
filled with color, and then the surplus color 
should be wiped out on the side of the dish ; 
otherwise the stencil wtU be flooded with 
too much color, which will cause it to 
spread under the stencil and smear the 
wall. For price list of stencil brush, etc., 
see page 21. 

14 



Stencillinj; on Wall Surfaces may be 
done by one person without assistance, for 
if the stencil pattern is small it may be 
held in place with one hand, while the 
other plies the brush. The stencil must 
be held firmly against the surface in 
order to obtain clear, sharp edges. To 
hold a very large stencil in place use thumb 
tacks or Moore Push Pins, or have another 
person hold the stencil. Coarse needles 
may be used, inserted in old spools; the 
spools will serve as handles. Brads are 
apt to mar the wall, but the small holes 
made by the sharp points of push pins or 
needles cannot be seen. 

The tints used for stencilling should be 
mixed to the same consistency as used for 
wall coating. 

How To Select a Stencil 

Stencil Borders should be used as far as 
possible to emphasize structural- lines. 
Borders that have a line beneath them, or 
that are confined between two lines, are 
called ^'confined borders." Stencil borders 
without a defining marginal line are called 
"free borders.*' 

Where simple treatment in decoration is 
desired and the wall tint is carried up to the 
ceiling line, a "free border" stencil may be 
used. This design may be placed upon the 
wall color. But when another tint forms 
the frieze above the wall tint, and no pic- 
ture molding separates the frieze from the 
wall tint, then a border design may be used 
that will also provide this separating line. 

15 



Another simple treatment is to use a small 
dividing band above the wall tint, and leave 
frieze tint plain. 

Small set patterns may be used in domes- 
tic decoration to relieve the walls of halls. 
They are usually spaced at regular inter- 
vals to produce an all over effect. 

Care should be taken to produce har- 
mony in design as well as in color. If con- 
ventional forms are used, they should be 
adhered to throughout the room. 

Lodge rooms and churches require 
special treatment. We shall be pleased to 
assist in the selection of designs to suit 
any work that is in prospect. 

ALABASTINE OPALINE EFFECTS 

Delightful in its widely varied effects 
and so moderate in cost, this method of 
applying Alabastine is meeting with great 
favor. 

A good sized sponge, firm but with 
coarse or fair-sized openings, is used to 
produce beautifully flecked effects over a 
soft toned background. This form of 
decoration is not so easily soiled as it does 
not show fingermarks or spots like a plain 
surface, and is especially adapted for store 
or office walls, halls, stairways and liv- 
ing-rooms in residences, and helps to over- 
come bad wall conditions. More artistic 
and sanitary, it has all the advantages of 
wall paper in completely covering the wall 
with a pleasing figured pattern that can be 

16 



chosen to match or harmonize with chintz, 
cretonne, silk and other fabrics, often at 
less than half the cost of suitable papers. 
There is no special skill or equipment 
required, but with a good wall brush and 
sponge an unlimited variety of designs can 
be produced. Almost any combination of 
Alabastine tints can be used, but a little 
practice will reveal novelties of design, 
tastefulness of color combination and 
charming results never imagined as pos- 
sible with Alabastine alone. Send for the 
booklet "Alabastine Opaline Effects" with 
full directions and 20 samples made by ap- 
plying Alabastine on paper in the same 
manner and producing the same effects as 
can be done on a plastered wall, wallboard, 
wood or any clean surface. For Decora- 
tors, we have a large "Portfolio of Opaline 
Designs." 




DIRECTIONS FOR 
ALABASTINE OPALINE EFFECTS 

First coat the wall or other surface with 
one coat of Alabastine in the usual way, 

17 



mixed according to directions on the 
package. 

To produce the Opaline Effects secure a 
large sponge, tirm but with coarse or fair 
size openings. Cut the sponge evenly 
across the grain to produce a flat or level 
surface. Soak the sponge in warm water 
before using. Mix the colors desired, in 
separate dishes, a little thinner than re- 
quired for regular wall work, in the pro- 
portion of about one pound Alabastine to a 
pint of warm water. 

Dip the whole sponge, so as to get the 
material all through it, holding it face up, 
squeeze it with both hands until fairly dry 
but do not wring it, then stipple or dab 
firmly on the wall, irregularly by sections 
or squares, not in strips or rows. To get 
into corners perfectly, it is well to provide 
another sponge with one edge trimmed to 
a square shoulder. 

Have a piece of glass, tin or heavy paper 
on which to pounce the sponge so as to get 
the Alabastine well distributed on surface 
of sponge and leave a distinct pattern. 
Each dip of a good sized sponge should 
cover about a yard square. If too wet the 
sponge will smear, if too dry the colors 
will not show up properly. 

If you are putting on two colors, the 
second can be applied as soon as you have 
gone over the wall with the first. One or 
two pounds of each color will be found suf- 

18 



ficient for an ordinary room. Any of the 
regular Alabastine tints or Alabastine 
Fresco colors can be used. 

If a satisfactory sponge cannot be 
secured locally, will be glad to mail a 
sponge suitable for the work on receipt of 
75 cents. An ordinary soft sponge can be 
used to produce small, blurred or indistinct 
impressions, but a coarse open sponge is 
required to make clean, distinct patterns. 

TO VARNISH ALABASTINE 

First Opaline the walls as directed 
above, then glue size with a very fine, clear 
glue, isinglass or gelatine, not very strong, 
as it is preferable to size lightly and go over 
the surface twice to ensure that no spot has 
been missed. Three ounces of glue to one 
quart of water is quite as strong as it 
should be made. Soak the glue a few hours, 
when it melts readily. Apply with a soft 
brush, going quickly over surface to avoid 
moving the Alabastine; reduce the 
strength of the size for the second coat; 
have the work thoroughly dry before re- 
coating, varnishing may be done usually in 
an hour or two after sizing. If a gloss is 
desirable use a light Varnish or "Hard Oil 
Finish." 

TO PRODUCE A FLAT WASHABLE 

SURFACE 

Size as before, then apply one coat of 
"Flat Varnish," which can be had of any 
painters' supply house. 

19 



Decorators usually employ a flat varnish, 
as they consider the dull finish preferable 
to the high gloss. 

Alabastine varnished is the proper thing 
for Kitchens, Bathrooms, Wainscoat or 
Dados, etc. It is more beautiful over Opa- 
line Process, and very much cheaper and 
quicker than paint or enamel. This is a 
great advantage in doing over Kitchen or 
Bathroom as the entire operation can be 
completed in one day. It is just the thing 
for theatrical decoration, window trim- 
ming, and for marbling and imitating some 
kinds of wood effects. 

ALABASTIC CRACK FILLER, as its 

name implies, is for mending walls and 
other surfaces. It is made ready for in- 
stant use when mixed up in water. It will 
set hard in about half an hour, and dries 
without shrinking. 

Price — Alabastic 1 lb. package, 15 cents. 

5 lb. package, 50 cents. 

Our Relief Machine with six styles of 
nozzles — price, $3.00. Postage 15c. extra. 

A Relief Mixture 

Alabastic Crack Filler is a special ma- 
terial that is adapted for use in relief bulbs, 
and for plastic work. To mix Alabastic for 
this purpose, take thick, well cooked flour 
paste and thin it so that it flows freely 
when poured from one dish to another. 
When the Alabastic is mixed up in this 
paste to a proper consistency it will flow 

20 



freely through the relief nozzles and give 
clean cut forms. The mixture will work 
well for some hours, and is very durable. If 
the paste is quite thick, the mixture can 
stand a day without hardening in the dish. 
A little practice will enable anyone to hit 
the mixture that suits them best. 

Amateurs are not likely to succeed in 
producing effective Relief and Modelled 
Designs on large surfaces. There is a field, 
however, in which Plastic Relief is used 
where the Decorator or show-card writer 
can produce free hand, by the use of an air 
gun or relief machine, very satisfactory 
results at very little expense; that is for 
show cards and window display work, 
backgrounds, etc.

bois) et ajoutez le coutenu d'un paquet de 
5 lbs. d' ALABASTINE. Pour un paquet 
de 2V2 l^s. mettez une chopine d*eau. Con- 
tinuez a brasser jusqu'a ce que le liquide 
soit doux et exempt de tout morceau. 
Ensuite, eclaircissez selon la surface a 
couvrir. Cela prendra une chopine a 
trois demies chopines d*eau additionnelles, 
suivant la condition de la surface a couvrir, 
qu^elle soit absorbente ou non. 

22 



En melangeant prenez soin de ne pas 
trop eclaircir. Dans une temperature 
froide, employez Teau chaude pour me- 
langer et eclaircir. 

Dans des appartements ou de temper- 
ture froide, sMI advient que epais le me- 
lange d'ALABASTINE devient trop a ap- 
pliquer librement, faites rechauffer. 

PREPARATION DE LA SURFACE 

A COUVRIR 

Pour enlever les vielles couches d'ALA- 
BASTINE sur les murs, ou plafonds, 
epongez avec de Teau chaude. 

Les Kalsomines, ou peinture a Teau, qui 
se melangent avec de Teau bouillante, et 
ne peuvent etre enlevees au moyen du 
lavage, sont nuisibles a la sante. 

Les couches accumulees s*enlevent et 
laissent des surfaces irregulieres. 

Pour produire un ouvrage durable, sur 
un mur voyez a ce que toute salete, blanc- 
de-ceruse, vieilles couches de kalsomines, 
ou vieilles tapisseries soient enleves avant 
d'appliquer TALABASTINE. 

METHODES POUR APPLIQUER 

L'ALABASTINE 

II y a certains reglements a observer 
avant d'appliquer I'Alabastine, sur les 
murs ou plafonds. Premierement servez- 
vous d'un pinceau de 6 ou 7 pouces de 
largeur en soie noire, et non d*un blanchis- 
soir en fibre.

Pour couvrir le mur d*un appartement 
il n*est pas necessaire de se servir d'un 
echafaud. La methode ordinaire est d'ap- 
pliquer une couche du haut du mur, en 
descendant jusqu'a ce que le mur soit 
blanchi. 

. II y a trois raisons qu'un peintre devrait 
savoir pour obtenir de ires bons re- 
sultats avec TAlabastine. Premierement 
il emploie un pinceau en soie. Deuxieme- 
ment, il melange TAlabastine suivant la 
direction inscrite sur le paquet. Troisie- 
mement, il prepare avec soin la surface a 
couvrir. Ceci est ecrit pour vous aider a 
faire pareillement. 

Preparation des Murs 

La chaux en morceau, les saletes, les 
couches molles de Kalsomine ou autres 
doivent etre enlevees a Teau avec une 
eponge ou une brosse. 

Les murs doivent etre prepares, en em- 
plissant les trous et craques avec le Crack 
Filler Alabastic, ou d'un autre melange fait 
d*un tiers de platre cuit et deux tiers d'- 
ALABASTINE. Nous avons vu les fentes 
et les trous de clous remplis de petites 
lisieres de papier. Cela se fait en meme 
temps qu'en posant TAlabastine, le papier 
etant trempe dans I'ALABASTINE avant 
de le poser et puis en le couvrant une fois 
pose. Une fois seche le papier ne parait 
pas. Les taches peuvent etre couvertes 
de la meme maniere. 

25 



Maniere de poser une seule couche 

Posez I'ALABASTINE sur le mur a 

KrantlH coupK de pinceau, de la meme ma- 
niere que la kal.somine. 

Ne craignez pas d'en employer; elle »'- 
etend facilement et se travaille bien. Lors- 
que que le mur est en bonne condition et 
exempt de salete, une couche peut suffir. 
Mais 8*11 y a des defectuosites dans le mur, 
ce qui peut etre facilement juge avant de 
commencer, une seconde couche peut etre 
appliquee pour donner I'apparence d'un 
mur clair et solide. 

La Seconde Couche 

Aussitot que Teau laisse la premiere 
couche, la seconde couche peut etre ap- 
pliquee. II n'est pas necessaire d'attendre 
que la premiere couche soit dure, car F- 
ALAHASTINE devient tre dure. La beaute 
de la seconde couche sera semblable a la 
premiere; en cela elie differe du kalsomine 
qui ne parait pas aussi bien. 

Malgre qu'une couche d'ALABASTINE 

donne une tres belle apparence, ce que les 
peintres attendent de la kalsomine, une se- 
conde couche est preferable. En donnant 
une seconde couche, le melange doit etre 
plus epais ou plus clair que le melange de 
la premiere couche. Si la premiere couche 
est epaisse, la seconde tres claire donnera 
un beau fini. La prise lente de FALABAS- 
TINE est ce qu'il y a de mieux sur le 
march e. 

26 



Pour Enlever les Vieilles Couches 

L'ALABASTINE s'enleve facilement en 
lavant a la grande eau et une eponge ou 
une brosse la fera disparaitre. 

Les Vieux Murs Peints 

Ces murs sent ordinairement malpropres 
et graisseux, par suite d'une accumulation 
et d'huile de fumee. Us doivent etre net- 
toyes avant. Employez sal-soda ou tout 
autre savon fort qui fera disparaitre la 
graisse. 

Les Murs en Platres 

Les murs ordinaires de platre seront tres 
jolis, en appliquant une couche d'ALABAS- 
TINE, mais avant ils doivent etre bien 
prepares car beaucoup de ces murs ne sont 
pas aptent a rien recevoir. 

Les differentes preparations ci-dessous 

peuvent etre employee sans crainte. Elles 
sont employees par plusieurs et les re- 
sultats ont donne satisfaction. 

Pour les Murs 
No. 1 

Une colle est ce qu'il y a de moins dispen- 
dieux, facile a faire et donne de bons re- 
sultats car elle permet a la surface d'absor- 
ber ce qu'elle peut absorber. Ceci est beau- 
coup employe. Pour une grande chambre 
un quart de Hvre de ponne colle dissoute 
pendant deux heures dans une pinte d'eau, 
puis ajoutez de I'eau pour former un gallon. 

27 



No. 2 

Tout vernis qui seche rapidement dans 
laquelle un peu de terebenthine est me- 
langee, ou meme du benzine, fera aussi une 
bonne preparation. D sechera dans 
quelques heures et donnera satisfaction. 

No. 3 
Une preparation peu dispendieuse 
pour les murs de papier ou sur fini de sable. 

Dissoulvez du savon tres dur dans de 
Teau et en appliquer, afin de former une 
petite couche presqu'imperceptible. Trop 
de savon amollit. Cette preparation est 
employee sur un fini de sable. 

L'ALABASTINE comme peinture a 

Texterieur 

Pour appliquer sur la brique, tuile, 
ciment, planche ou autres surfaces de bois, 
melangez 5 lbs. d'ALABASTINE dans une 
pinte d*eau bouillante et une fois bien 
melangees, ajoutez une pinte d'huile de lin 
crue ou bouillie, (I'huile de lin crue est 
preferable) ; remeuz le tout. Eclaircissez 
avec de I'eau et appliquez une bonne couche. 
Cela paraitra aussi bien que deux ou trois 
couches de peinture, mais sechera comme 
une peinture a Teau. Elle durera aussi 
longtemps et paraitra 100 pour cent mieux 
qu'une couche de peinture a I'huile. Le 
prix n*est rien compare a la peinture. Un 
exterieur brillant peut aussi etre obtenu 
avec I'ALABASTINE. Les teintes claires 
paraissent tres bien et donnent satisfac- 
tion. 

28 



Employee comme couche de fond sous la 

Peinture 

Employee comme couche de fond sous la 
peinture, sur n'importe quelle surface, me- 
langez avec de Thuile, de lin bouillie et 
coulez-la (une toile a fromage fera tres 
bien). Cette couche est egale a la peinture 
melangee, et est moins dispendieuse. Avant 
d'appliquer la seconde couche, il est essen- 
tiel que la premiere soit seche. Employez 
toujours I'ALABASTINE qui ira avec la 
teinte du fini. 

Dans la Teinte des Murs, deux couleurs 
combinees sont tres populaires et artis- 
tiques. Appliquez une couleur reguliere 
pour les murs, et pour le plafond employez 
de quatre a six parties d'ALABASTINE 
melangees avec une partie de la teinte du 
mur. Si moins de contraste est desire, em- 
ployez moins de blanc dans le melange du 
plafond. 

La couleur du mur pent aller jusqu'au 
plafond, et une bordure appliquee sur la 
couleur du mur, ou la couleur du plafond, 
peut descendre sur le mur de 12 a 18 pouces 
afin de former une bordure, qui peut etre 
laissee unie ou un patron place dessus. 

Une autre maniere est d'employer une 
teinte reguliere d'ALABASTINE pour le 
mur et une autre pour le plafond. 

Les couleurs suivantes s'harmonisent 

tres bien 

Dans la liste suivante nous donnons une 
teinte pour le plafond et differentes teintes

Cette liste de 43 combinaisons peut

teintes. 



Comment Choisir un Patron 

Les Patrons des Bordures doivent faire 
ressortir les principales lignes. Les bor- 
dures qui ont une lignes au dessous, ou qui 
sont entre deux lignes, sont appelees *'bor- 
dures confinees." Les patrons sans ligne 
definie, sont appeles *bordures libres." 

Lorsqu'une decoration simple est desiree 
et que la couleur du mur se rend au pla- 
fond, un patron a **bordure libre" peut etre 
employe. Ce dessin peut etre applique sur 

30 



la couleur du mur. Mais lorsque la couleur 
du mur est differente de celle du haut, une 
bordure, en laissant la ligne de separation, 
peut etre employee, ou encore faire une 
large ligne de separation et laisser le haut 
uni. 

Des petits patrons peuvent etre em- 
ployees dans les decorations des maisons. 
lis sont espaces en intervales regulieres 
afin de produire un bon effet. 

H est important de donner au dessin un 
effet harmonieux et faire eorrespondre les 
couleurs. Si des formes conventionnelles 
sont employees elles doivent s'harmoniser 
par toute la grandeur de I'appartement. 

Les salles de reunions et les eglises de- 
mandent un soin special. Nous nous ferons 
un plaisir de vous aider a choisir les dessins 
que vous pouvez employer dans ces sortes 
de decorations. 

Pinceau prime offert au Peintre 

Tout peintre devrait decouper le mot 
ALABASTINE du cote des grands et petits 
paquets. Nous les rachetons. 150 mots 
des grands paquets ou 300 mots des petits 
paquets qui nous sont envoyes, nous lui 
envoyons un pinceau Alabastine de 7 
pouces, ou encore envoyez 100 mots des 
grands paquets ou 200 mots des petits 
paquets, et nous vous enverrons $2.50 en 
argent. 

Ne manquez pas cela. Cela equivaut 
a une prime de 21/2C sur chaque grand 
paquet. 

31 



Comment Obtenir des Patrons en Prime 

Nous offrons un patron en prime a ceux 
qui font usage de I'Alabastine et suivant 
les regies suivantes. 

Chaque employeur d'ALABASTINE peut 
obtenir les patrons montres dans ce livret 
en nous envoyant trois etiquettes qui sont 
au dessous des grands paquets ou six des 
petits paquets pour chaque patron. Vous 
devez aussi envoyer dix cents pour couvrir 
les f rais de malle ou de poste. 

En commandant des patrons assurez- 
vous que celui choisi est trois ou quatre 
pouces plus etroit que Tespace ou il doit 
etre employe. Exemple: si une bordure 
est de dix-huit pouces de large, le patron 
doit etre de 12 a 14 pouces. 

Dans notre liste nous indiquons les 
grandeurs exactes, nous n'allouons rien 
pour la marge. 

Les patrons prets a etre employes 

Sont fait de bonne manille et les huilons 
avant de les expedier, mais en leur donnant 
une couche de shellac, vous les ferez durer 
beaucoup plus longtemps. 

A chaque bout il y a des coupures, in- 
diquant comment unir, un bout a un autre, 
afin de faire un dessin continu. 

Comment Employer les Patrons 

Un Pinceau a Patron. Si un pinceau a 
patron regulier ou un pinceau ponce ne peut 
etre obtenu, vous pouvez employer un pin- 
ceau ordinaire en entourant les soies d'un 

32 



linge, vers le milieu, afin de les rendre plus 
solides et les empechant de s'etendre. Le 
pinceau doit etre bien rempli de la couleur 
employee, puis le frottant sur les bords 
du plat, afin de laisser ce qui est strictement 
necessaire, car s*il y avait trop de couleur, 
elle coulerait sous le patron. 

Les Patrons sur un mur peuvent etre 
employes par une seule personne; si le 
patron est petit il peut etre tenu d'une main 
pendant que Tautre main passe le pinceau. 
Le patron doit etre tenu fermement au mur 
afin que les lignes soit bien distinctes. Pour 
employer un grand patron employez les 
petites epingles Moore, ou ayez I'aide d*une 
autre personne. De grosses aiguilles peu- 
vent aussi etre employees, en les passant 
dans des vieux fuseaux, ces fuseaux ser- 
vant de poignees. Des broquettes feront 
des trous dans le mur, tandis que les 
epingles Moore et les aiguilles ne laisseront 
aucune trace. 

Les teintes employees pour les patrons 
doivent etre preparees de la mcme maniere 
que pour les murs. 

DIRECTIONS POUR PRODUIRE L'EF- 
FET OPALINE AVEC L'ALABASTINE 

Premierement, couvrez la surface ou le 
mur avec une couche d'ALABASTINE de 
la maniere indiquee sur les paquets. 

Pour produire des effets Opaline montres 
dans le livre d'echantillons, procurez-vous 
une grosse eponge solide avec les trous 

33 



1 



d'une moyenne grosseur. Coupez Teponge 
egalement a travers le grain pour produire 
une surface plate. Saucez Teponge dans 
Teau chaude avant de vous en servir. Me- 
langez les couleurs desirees un peu plus 
claires que vous vous servez pour Touvrage 
des murs dans differents plats, et dans la 
proportion d'a peu pres une livre d'ALA- 
BASTINE a une chopine d'eau chaude. 

Saucez toute Teponge afin que le liquide 
y penetre completement, serrez-la avec vos 
deux mains jusqu'a ce que tout le liquide 
sorte mais ne la tordez pas. Apres appli- 
quez-la sur le mur irregulierement par 
section carre, mais pas en ligne. Pour 
aller dans les coins, c'est mieux de se servir 
d'une autre eponge avec un bord coupe. 

Ayez un morceau de vitre ou un morceau 
de papier mince ou epais sur lequel appli- 
quez Teponge pour que I'ALABASTINE se 
distribue sur la surface de Teponge et laisse 
un patron clair. Chaque fois que vous 
saucez une eponge de bonne grosseur vous 
devriez couvrir une verge carree. Si 
Teponge est trop pleine de liquide vous allez 
faire un barbouillage, et si vous n'en n'avez 
pas assez les couleurs ne pax'aitront pas 
distinctement. 

Si vous avez deux couleurs a poser, vous 
pouvez commencer a appliquer la seconde 
aussitot que la premiere sera posee. Une ou 
deux livres de chaque couleur sera suffi- 
sante pour une chambre de grandeur ordin- 
aire. N'importe quelles couleurs d'Ala- 

34 



bastine ou Alabastine Fresco peuvent etre 
employees. 

Si c'est impossible de vous procurer une 
eponge convenable envoyez-nous 75 cts et 
nous vous enverrons une eponge satisfai- 
sante pour Touvrage. 

POUR VERNIR L'ALABASTINE 

Premierement couvrez le mur avec 
I'ALABASTINE Opaline Effect. Servez- 
vous de colle tres claire ou de la gelatine, 
pas tres forte comme c'est preferable 
de passer deux fois afin de bien couvrir 
la surface. Trois onces de colle a une pinte 
d'eau, cela serait suffisant. Appliquez avec 
un pinceau molle, tres vite sur la surface 
afin de ne pas enlever TALABASTINE. 
Reduisez la force de la colle pour la deuxi- 
eme couche. Ne donnez pas une deuxieme 
couche avant que la premiere soit seche, le 
vernis peut etre pose en general dans une 
heure ou deux apres. Si un luisant est 
desire, employez un vernis clair ou (Hard 
Oil Finish). 

POUR PRODUIRE UN FINI MAT 

LAVABLE 

Appliquez la colle comme auparavant. 
Ensuite posez une couche de *'Vernis 
Mat," que vous pourrez vous procurer dans 
les magasins de peinture. 

Les peintres generalement emploient un 
vernis mat, ils considerent qu'un fini mat 
est preferable au fini luisant. 

35 



L'ALABASTINE vernis est Tarticle 
pour cuisines, chambre de bains, et 
boiseries, etc. C'est un grand avantage 
en faisant une cuisine ou une chambre de 
bain comme Toperation entiere peut etre 
finie dans une journee. 

C'est aussi Tarticle pour les decorations 
de theatre, et pour imiter le marbre ou le 
bois. 

Nous montrons les dessins dans le livre 
d'Effets Opaline vernis avec des directions. 

LE CRACK FILLER ALABASTIC

Notre Machine a relief avec six modeles 
de bouts— price, $3.00. Malle 15c. 

Un Melange a Relief 

Le Crack Filler Alabastic est un materiel 
special qui s'adapte tres bien pour les ou- 
vrages en relief et plastiques. Pour me- 
langer TAlabastic, pour ce genre d'ouvrage, 
prenez de la pate a fleur epaisse et cuite 
et rendez-Ia claire pour qu*elle puisse se 
transvaser f acilement. Lorsque TAlabastic 
est melangee avec cette pate elle passera 

36 



facilement dans les bouts de la machine a 
relief, et donne des formes nettes et claires. 
Si la pate est bien epaisse, le melange peut 
rester dans une assiette pendant une 
journee sans durcir. Un peu de pratique 
vous permettra de f aire un bon ouvrage. 

Les Amateurs ne reussiront pas peut etre 
a donner un bon effet au relief et un beau 
dessin sur une large surface. II y a cepen- 
dant un champ, ou le Relief Plastique, 
employe par le decorateur ou le dessinateur, 
peut donner un bon effet a main libre par 
Tusage d'une machine a relief, et cela a 
tres peu de frais ; pour les dessins et 
ouvrages de parures, arriere-plans, etc.
