Interior paint - choosing of shades and paint gloss to indoors

The gloss levels of the paints, the roughness of the surface to be painted, the lighting and natural light in the space, and other colors and materials in the space, have a significant impact on the observation of internal colors. Therefore, it is a good idea to choose a shade designed for the object to be painted in the space where it comes. Also note that the shades look different on large surfaces and the same shade is transformed into roofs, walls and floors. We always recommend test painting in the selected color tone to ensure both the selected shade and the correctness of the tinted paint. There may be differences in the tinting, tinting machines and tinting pastes. Always reserve enough paint and mix a sufficient amount of paint for the uniform surface to avoid any shade differences.

The impact of paint gloss degrees

The gloss rates of the paints affect the surface reflectivity and the painting. Dark interior paint hides the unevenness better. The more shiny the paint is, the easier the unevenness and paintings of the painted base are visible. Also, the painting conditions (suitable humidity and temperature of the room air) and the tools selected also affect the smoothness of the paint and shine, so it is advisable to carefully do the topcoat. The proportion of groundwork is really important.

Before starting work

It is a good idea to choose the interior paint according to the object to be painted. Be sure to find out the baseline, previous processing, and carefully plan the rules of procedure, depending on whether it is a new surface painting or repainting the surface already painted. Do the necessary preparations before you start work. Get the necessary tools, interior paints and accessories in advance. Remember to protect the painting environment before you start and delimit any surfaces that remain untreated. Please also take care of painting clothes and other equipment.

Tips for Basic Processing and Painting

The primer affects the absorption of topcoat, improves the adhesion of the top coat and facilitates the treatment of the top coat. Make a primer according to the surface to be painted and the instructions given by the selected product. There are different instructions and tips for priming different paints. There are also differences in the base treatment of covering and hearing products. Under the hearing paints and treatment agents, the primer is not used to keep the wood's own patterns visible.

Things to consider in painting

It is a good idea to get interior paint well in advance of painting. Always get enough paint and shade paint. Check the shade before starting the painting by making a test painting on a board, etc. Mix a sufficient paint in the same container to avoid any shade differences in the same container.

The goal batch should be sufficient for the surface to be painted. Confirm the painting instructions on the paint can or on our website. Acted in accordance with the instructions given, as there are differences in different paints, paint application methods, paintings and painting instructions.

Mix the interior paint thoroughly before use and, if necessary, during painting. The color selection of heard products must take into account the color of the surface to be processed, the roughness of the surface, the species of wood and the previous treatments. The treatment sessions also have a significant effect on the final color. First, follow the care of the painted surfaces.

High -quality tools

If necessary, use different tools at different stages of painting, such as small or large brushes, borders or rollers.

Roller painting

When painting with a roll, the roll box/painting tray will remain better clean when you protect it with a plastic bag before pouring the paint into the roll box. The roll should rotate in the paint box when it is dipped in the paint. If you paint tall spaces, walls or ceiling, use the extension arm on the roll.

Tip: When painting a basic panel roof, select a two -panel -wide extension stalk, which allows you to lift the paint to the ceiling and smooth the roll with a wolf with the extension arm. Choose a single panel -wide wolf as a wolf size. Do painting according to the surface of the surface to be painted or panels. When painting the wall surfaces, make the final lightweight roll pull from the bottom up. Use sufficient paint when rolling, as too little paint can leave stripes and glossal differences on top painting.

Brushing

When painting with a brush, choose a brush that suits the paint and the target. Painting with too little or large brush may affect the painting. Excessive number of paints can cause cracking or wrinkling of the paint. If you suspect the correct amount of the paint, we recommend testing to a similar surface to check the matter.

Cleaning of tools and storage of paints

It is a good idea to clean the tools as soon as the painting is completed. Water -borne paint tools can be washed with water and soap. The tools of solvent -based paints can be cleaned with Uula general spirit or lacquer spirit and finally with soap and water. If the paint is over, please make sure the jar lid is well closed. We recommend storing paints in a dry and cool place. Water -borne products do not withstand frost. Please note that you store paints and surface treatment agents even out of the reach of children.

The prevention of environmental damage

Empty, dry packaging can be delivered for recycling, but liquid waste must be delivered to the hazardous waste collection point. Read tips for destroying paint waste and recycling jars. linseed oil products, discard oily traders, rags, etc. by burning or watering with water before being thrown into the trash due to a potential linseed oil self -ignition.

Cleaning the painted surfaces
