You want to kn tx li ?w to do a cheap
job of paint in;/, and have it look j?ood. !
Here it is: The cheapest tiling there is
in the way of a root look in job- say 1
nothing about its beioff j^nod?i.s Devon:
the regular tiling i 1 Devoe.
The reson is: l)o\ov .joes further than
anything else. 1 e.ut and oil is jjj;?od
looking; don't yo so far and costs more.
Too oiler jsiints are trtoro'.?r less .short
in one way or another: don't s'' far
and eosts morn than Dovoc.
Devoe cost s less than all: you don't
mind it's lastint; lonjter, do you? We
can't holp it; a paint that f?oes further
