When these are properly compounded, they produce paints having substantial resistance to flame. These studies have developed a special blast lamp test to determine the efficiency of fire retardant paints upon metal surfaces. This is of interest, since the interiors of practically all ships are now painted with special rust inhibitive primers followed by newly developed types of fire retardant paint having low gloss surfaces. Low gloss paints are highly light reflecting, without which the interiors of ships would be relatively' dim, a condition which would retard the efficiency of the crew. It is understood that the use of the above type of paint is now a requirement for all ships. Thus, fire retardance, light reflection, and protection against corrosion are now being afforded to all ships through the use of successfully designed paint coatings. Light reflecting interior paints are now also used for the interiors of planes, tanks, submarines, and other important instruments of war. i CotflfWd* nUT EM PRODUCT/th Few Ditcaio Cant* Poultry Men Suck Louts Wfcen you DoV.rf •.bwiV» orwhiwifax, f*t burr quicklv with of lh«K ooitwiki toted tewtmento.
