Variety of New Materials Spur Improvement Projects
Popular Mechanics surveys six new home materials and remodeling ideas for 1964. Siding innovations include hot dipped galvanized steel with baked vinyl, redwood bevel siding with acrylic coating, a repaint-free seven year wood option, solid vinyl siding guaranteed to never require painting, and a plastic coated hardboard siding. A galvanized steel gutter system with baked enamel, a lightweight packaged dry well, and a vinyl hardwood veneer flooring offer easy installation. Stainless steel maintenance free windows, inward swinging double hung wood windows, and inner double glazing reduce storm window needs. Enclosing a patio is suggested to create an inexpensive family room.
