Your cloath must be of an even thread; if any nobs of colours be on it, take them of with a pumice-stone, before you begin to work. If pannels, let them be of old wenscoat, which is not apt to warp. Before you prime your pannels, there must be a coat of whiting and strong sise six or eight times done over, to hide grain of the wood: when they are dry, let them be plain'd a joyners plain, then water plain'd with a rag dipt in. ,,
