But Armstrong’s have given these rugs an outstanding additional virtue. Each colorful design is protected by a generous coat of time-enduring “Accqlac” —the special lacquer that stands up so splendidly under constant daily wear. Mop the rug occasionally: The “Accolac” finish defies soap and water, and keeps the pattern bright and new-looking. Those who rent will particularly appreciate the ease with which these new rugs can be rolled up. Sizes and designs for rooms large or small. See these rugs when you shop.
