It is therefore opportune to publish the relative costs of labour and material in painting work. Bearing in mind the high proportion of labour to materials in total cost, it will be seen that the small saving made by buying lower-priced and inferior paint, soon becomes a loss. We may take a typical example: IST GRADE PAINTS— Labour £26 Material • • •• •• £l6 Total .. .. £42 Assuming the life of the work to be six years the annual cost is £7. 2ND GRADE PAINTS— Work done with such materials is not likely to last more than three years, making the annual cost £l2. There is nothing exaggerated in an illustration like this. It squares with experience, for the unwisdom of using any paints but the best has been demonstrated in many places and at many times.
