Excerpt from Hints on Painting Structural Steel and Notes on Prominent Paint Materials: A Handbook for Paint-Users

Bout thirty years ago practice in the making of Linseed Oil, Varnishes, Japans, and Colors first brought the writer into daily contact with questions te gardin g the manipulation of paint, its properties, and the results of the various operations to which it was sub jected. Painters, engineers, architects, builders, con structors, etc have since been continuously asking questions whose answers involved thought and experi ment. At one time paintmaking was an art, then it became a trick. Now it is a science. This little handbook is writ ten by a paintmaker, and is the direct result of study recently given to the manufacture and properties of structural steel and the use of paint in its preservation. It is published in the hope that some Of the mysteries heretofore associated with the paint may be cleared up.
