The Sure Sign of a Good Painter When your painter recommends and uses Hockaday's INTERIO the washable paint for all interior surfaces You can be sure he is giving you the most paint for your money, because INTERIO covers 309, more surface and requires no priming or sizing. Two coats flowed on give a hard, sanitary, beautiful surface that looks right and stays vgs, because it can be washed any number o times without injury. On some walls 10 years- still too good to renew. Another reason the wise painter is strong for INTERIO is that it never chalks, peels or lime burns. So he is sure of a satisfattory job every time. : If you don't know the name of a painter who uses Hockaday's INTERIO, here's one. I Call him, and you'll get a dependable job at a reasonable cost.
