Trash paint versus Devoe quality in early market claims

The piece argues that low quality paint, labeled as trash, mimics real paint. It contends painters spend a day’s wage to apply a gallon, notes Devoe costs five to six dollars per gallon while trash runs a half-dollar less. It asserts trash lacks body and requires more cans to cover jobs, claiming 10 gallons of Devoe suffice for an average job versus 15 to 20 gallons of trash. It mentions DEVOE W. W. Freeman as the seller.
