RUSli -2- D FINIS] I] 3 OBJECTS LISTED Since 192,? the Forest Froducts Laboratory has "been stu : I painting of exterior woodwork, particularly house painting, in order to supply "basic infor- mation for improving the serviceability of wood in buildings. Data are obtai' ■ 3 from practical exposure tests at Madison and other parts of the country, from cial laboratory tests, and from consultations with house owners about their paint i. eriences. Publications of a broad scope are listed under a GENERAL heading. Exterior woo Luted largely to prevent the WEATEERING OF WOOD. The durability of paint depends partly upon the PAINTING CHARACTERISTICS OF WOOD. On woods that do not hold paint well better results can be obtained with SPECIAL PHI AN] PRIMING PEON '. The Laboratory studies the COMPOSITION OF PA] chiefly from the point of view of wise selection and correct application of the - kinds of pai 1 - Liable. Much study has been made of the TECHNIQUE OF APPLY: and of th I] PAINI1 '- PAINT for long periods of time, PAINT FAILURES W 1 '.'COD BECOMES NET occur often enough to need special study. Contributions have been made to the TECHNIQUE OF EXPOSURE TESTING. Changes in the moisture content and dimensions of v-ood can often be minimized of COATINGS ' I- MO IS ORE P, When suitable coatings are impracticable for that purpose, moisture movement can be retarded by treat- z of wood with WATER REPEL - IS AN Wj I IR-REPELLENT PRESERVATIVES. In some uses in which wood must be preserved from decay and yet must be painted the PAT OF TRE .: [ WOOD becomes important, ' AIRCRAFT and related problems were studied during wartime. Other aspects of v/ood finishing, such as INTERIOR WOOD FIB 3, although within the Laboratory's field of work, have received little study so far. The paint- of metal, masonry, and plaster generally falls outside the scope of the Laboratory's work. Some MISCELLANEOUS publications are of interest to many readers of this list and OTHER PUBLICATION LISTS are available to inquirers. RH5U. -3. General Painting the farm and city home, by F.
