Nu-\7ood Sta-L:te Offerr Hish Light Reflection

An unusually high light reflection factor of better than 70/o is claimed for Nu-Wood Sta-Lite, a new insulating interior finish product announced by the Wood Conversion Company. This new surface treatment is the result of a special coating recently developed which incorporates the use of new principles in surfacing materials.

The company reports an interesting feature in that this extremely light surface actually turns lighter with exposure. Tests on samples exposed to sunlight and Fadometer show that the surface after exposure is enough lighter to be seen by the eye. Tests made in a standard Fadometer show that exposure, the equivalent of two years, results in a definitc increase in whiteness.

Nu-Wood Sta-Lite is available in Tile, Plank and Board. The product maintains the distinctive texture of Nu-Wood' It ofiers a considerable amount of sound absorption and insulating value. Both in texture and color, Sta-Lite is designed to harmonize with Tan and Variegated Nu-Wood.

A special new type tongue and groove joint is furnished on Sta-Lite Tile and Plank. This joint has a slightly shallower bevel which gives the board an improved appearance in design. The tongue and groove joint offers greater support in construction to adjacent pieces-plus practically fool-proof application. Leakage of air through the joint is practically eliminated and slight movement is not noticeable on the finished iob.

Nu-\\rood Sta-Lite can be easily cleaned with a sponge or cloth. In extreme cases, a wall paper cleaner or damp cloth may be used. If another color is desired the surface acts as the priming coat. This, together with the mat texture, offers a surface which is easily covered with paint without showing brush marks.

L3ecause of the special joint treatment, Nu-Wood Sta-Lite Tile and Plank are not inter-changeable with Tan, Variegated and Ivory Nu-Wood Tile and Plank. For two tone effects, Ivory Nu-Wood, which will still be available, should be used. For further information and samples of this Nu-Wood StaLite write the Wood Conversion Company, Saint Paul, Minnesota.

Low Cost Homes

(Continued from Page 26) afiorded individual small homes buyers and investors at the present.

On the East Coast, the National Small llomes Demonstration is building a h.ome based on one of its basic designs in the "Town of Tomorrow" at the World's Fair, New York, and many, many thousands will eventually see this exhibit, carrying the word of small home potentialities back to their respective communities.

In many towns and cities lumbermen are sponsoring exhibit homes built from one of the many variations of the two basic designs of National Small Homes Demonstration. A much greater utilization of this phase of the program is looked for, with its manifest possibilities for stimulation of home building.

With the active sponsorship of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association and the National Lumber Manufacturers Association, the 1939 ;National Small Homes Demonstration got under full steam in January. Newspapers and other sections of the press have carried innumerable articles sent out to acquaint the public with its purposes and objectives. National magazines and trade journals have carried many columns of space anent the program. The public seems to be reaching a status of greater small home consciousness than in a number of years.

Summed up, it appears that the prog'ram will result in huge stimulation of home building. But, those in close touch with the national aspect of the progriun point out, it means that lumbermen and all whose interests tie in with the final results, must keep hammering away to keep the ball rolling.
