CLIMBS’ SLATE ROOFING FAINT 
-FOR— 
LEAKY ROOFS. 
Old shingle roofs can be patched and coated, looking much better and lasting longer than new shingles 
without the slate, for one-third the cost of re- shingling. The paint is fire-proof against sparks, as may easily 
be tested. It stops every leak and for tin or iron has no equal, as it expands with heat and contracts with 
cold. Tar and gravel roofs can be made water tight at a small expense. This Slate Paint is extremely 
cheap. Two gallons covers a hundred square feet of shingle roof, or five hundred square feet of tin, iron, or 
other smooth surface. The paint has a heavy body but can easily be applied with a brush. No tar is used 
in this composition, therefore it neither cracks in winter nor runs in summer. 
On decayed shingles it fills up the pores and gives a new, substantial roof that lasts for years. Curled or 
warped shingles it brings to their places and keeps them there. Our paint, which (for shingle roofs) is 
chocolate color when first applied, soon changes to a uniform slate color, and, is, to all intents and purposes, 
slate. On tin roofs red color is usually preferred , as one coat is equal to five of any ordinary paint. 
For brick walls it is the only reliable slate painc ever introduced that will effectually prevent dampness 
from penetrating and discoloring the plaster. For factories, foundries, mills, machine shops, warehouses, 
engine houses, freight cars, depots, farm and seaside buildings, bridges, stables, fences, etc., etc., it is espe¬ 
cially recommended. For these our red, bright red, or yellow are preferred. 
NEW HOOFS! NEW ROOFS ! 
Grlines’ R.u'b'ber Roofing 
can be laid by anyone, and is superior to ail other roofing for cheapness, fire-proof qualities and durability, 
being ready for use, very elastic, and requiring no tar or gravel, is strongly recommended by architects, 
corporations, public institutions,builders and leading men in all sections for new steep or flat roofs; can 
also be laid over very old shingles, felt, plastic and mastic roofs with positive satisfaction; has no smell in 
hot weather; sheds water rapidly. 
There being now in use, in every variety of climate, over 11,030,000 feet of this class of roofs, on stores, 
dwellings, barns, mills, etc., also on founderies subjected to constant jar from machinery as well as coutin- 
ued heat from the furnaces, has given such practical and varied experience, that we ai*e*confident, where the 
instructions are followed, our RUBBER ROOFING will give entire satisfaction. 
Roofs that leak are costly property. You cannot afford them. The damage to your housed crops, which 
results from one storm is often more than the cost of putting your barn roof in order. The yearly decays o f 
agricultural machinery and implements, arising from leaky roofs on outhouses, would more than pay the 
cost of roofing every shed, crib, and storehouse on your farm. Your stock suffers from the drippings of 
your stable roof and the necessity of lying in wet stalls. These evils affect property but when your house 
roof leaks it is worse yet. Then comfort departs and you have a garret full of old pails and pans to catch 
the steady streams; there are wet ceilings and falling plaster; there are spoiled furniture, damp bedding 
and rheumatism; there is the anxious wife wearied with running up stairs to guard against new leaks - it is 
decay and ruin and property wasted. You cannot afford it. Our Slate Roofing Paint will end your difficul¬ 
ties and make \ our roofs water tight. For new roofs our Rubber Hoofing covered with Slate Roofin°- Paint 
gives satisfaction to any one.
