Excerpt from Simple Methods for Testing Painters Materials
The materials employed in painting are, perhaps for several reasons, peculiarly liable to adulteration, and it is not uncommon to find one substance entirely replaced by another of lower value. This book is designed to enable the painter and dealer to test and value the materials they buy, and the manufacturer and dealer the samples submitted to them, in the simplest manner, both in regard to practical properties and composition, the latter term being here used more in a manufacturing than a purely chemical sense.
