The complete carriage and wagon painter : a concise compendium of the art of painting carriages, wagons and sleighs, embracing full directions in all the various branches, including lettering, scrolling, ornamenting, striping, varnishing and coloring with numerous recipes for mixing colors . leaves of a book until dry. Next, dampen theback of the paper on which the design was painted, andwhen soft enough remove it, in the same manner as whenusing an ordinary transfer. This leaves the painted designface downward upon the gummed paper similar to anyother transfer. When the home-made transfers are thus completed, sendfor the carriage and transfer the design to the panels byvarnishing the back with transfer varnish, or a little rub-bing varnish. Dampen and remove the paper as usual,and you will find the design as nicely depicted on thepanel as if it were a purchased decalcomanie, and the timetaken to do such work would be nothing, compared to thepainting done on the carriage itself. This plan of operations might be utilized by the painterfor other work. He might take home some little job ofthis kind, and make money in spare moments.
