I live in a stucco house which has an aluminum - framed sliding backporch door. The bottom of the alu- minum, door frame seems to be corroding away. Addi- tionally, the stucco below the door frame is flaking off • What causes the problems and what can I do to solve them? — K.W. • A. This problem is caused by moisture which makes the aluminum react to the concrete or stueco. Here is how to clean and treat unpainted or painted aluminum. Mix equal amounts of motor oil and kerosene. Take a piece of ' fine bronze wool and clean the entire aluminum surface •well with this mixture, then dry with a clean cloth. This should remove oxida- tion, dirt; grease or oil. After the surface is clean, apply a thin coat of motor oil and ,kerosene fluid very sparingly over the entire surface. This mixture is not combustible, and it should protect the metal from . future oxidation,. which • causes the cogosion. Repeat the treatment 'every six months. If alumin- um is around saltwater, repeat the process every 90 days. Next repair the stucCO3 first brushing, off "all loose material. Use a stucce,, patching material. Whetilhe stucco is repaired, give it a coat of Thompson's Water Seal. In the future, keep the area as dry as possible. Q. 1 recently bought a second-hand cedar chest, four feet long and in good shape. It has two copper bands coming across the lid and down the front. I used a copper polish and with a toothbrush and the • polish, I managed to get the dark finish off those bands. But they still do not look right, and maybe 1°11 try again. The cedar finish looks very dull. Is there anything like a polish, oil or wax I could use onit? I do not want to try any polish until I'm sure I know. what Fin -doing. Any sugges- tions? -- Lorraine M.S., San, Diego, Calif. A. For polishing your cop- per bands, first mask off the cedar next to the bands. Then apply warm white vinegar and sprinkle with salt. Let set a short time and wash off with soft cloth and warm- water. When dry, pol- ish the copper with rotten - stone and olive oil or sewing machine oil. A light coa.4hg, of lacquer will help preserve 'the copper finish. For the woOd, polish these surfaces with equal parts of lemon oil and turpentine or go over the wood with Liquid Gold, a finish manufactured especially for wood paneling and other wood surfaces. Q. I would like to know how to refinish the chrome legs on my dinette table which have become quite rusted. I • would like to paint theni black, either enamel or flat finish. Would it be advisable to put coat of aluminum on the metal and then the black paint? Also should the chrome be rubbed down first with steel wool or sand- paper? —Jim K. A. First remove the rust and dull the gloss of the chrome by ribbing with sandpaper. Then clean -the metal with turpentine and steel wool. • To reduce the possibility of further rusting, coat the metal with a rust -inhibitive paint that has a zinc or red - lead base. When thoroughly dry, apply the flat black paint or enamel,' whichever is pre- , f erred. 450 g PKG. OUR REG., 2.09 SCHNEIDERS BROKEN COOKED.
