Cheap Wash for Bricks.
Take a barrel, and slack one-half bushel of lime, as before mentioned ; then fill the barrel two-thirds full of water, and add one bushel of hydraulic cement, or water lime, dissolved in water, and add three pounds sulphate of zinc. The whole should be of the thickness of paint, ready for use. This wash is improved by the addition of a peck of white sand, stirred in just before using.
The color is a pale stone color.
To make it a fawn color, add one pound yellow ochre, tw...o pounds raw umber, and one pound lampblack.
To make it a drab, add one pound Indian red, one pound umber, and one pound lampblack.
To keep a Stove Bright.
Make a weak solution of alum water, and mix your British lustre with it ; put two spoonsful to a gill of alum water ; let the stove be cold ; brush it with the mixture ; then take a dry brush, and lustre, and rub the stove till it is perfectly dry. Should any part, before polishing, become dry, and look gray, moisten it with a wet brush and proceed as before ; by two applications a year, it can be kept as bright as a coach body.
