Released last April to all Pabco paint distributors throughout the West, the Pabco Cin-Dek-Orator has now proved itself one of the finest paint merchandising units available. During the planning stages The Paraffine Companies, fnc. wanted the most effective means to show the consumer how high-grade enamels would appear on the finished job.
