MANAGERS AND PROJECTIONISTS 903 theatre managers who may desire to color incandescent globes may procure ready-made coloring liquid from any supply dealer. These liquids come in red, green, blue and amber. Colored incandescent globes will require re-dipping occasionally, because the heat of the globes gradually deteriorates the color. Color is applied by the simple process of dipping the incandescent globe into the liquid, afterward allowing it to dry. The Eastman Kodak Company recommends the following formula as calculated to produce a very pleasing amber color, with the remark that other dye materials may be used when some other color is desired : 4>2 ounces Sandarac (Powdered). 5/2 ounce Venice Turpentine. 58 grains Metanil Yellow No. 1955. (National Aniline Co., Buffalo, N. Y.). y2 fluid ounce Lavender Oil (Garden), fluid ounces Denatured Alcohol.
