It is a good idea to choose house paint on a carefully considered basis to make the paint as durable and beautiful as possible. When the wooden surfaces to be painted, taking into account their properties, the most suitable house paint is selected, the building receives long -lasting protection.
The most important grounds for choosing a paint are endurance, beauty and ease of maintenance. Exterior paint protects the home, the most important place in the world, from moisture and the effects of sunlight. Painting is a fairly large project, and everyone hopes that the paint surface will last beautiful for many years, even decades. The next time painting becomes topical, the paint appreciates features that make it easier for maintenance painting.
The beauty of the house comes from one of the appropriate elements: shapes, style, shades and textures that form a harmonious eye -pleasing entity. We think of linseed oil paint on the wall of the manor, while the causes and patterns of the new log are allowed to hear through surface treatment and it would seem downright wrong. The style of the house itself determines and controls the choice of external paint.
The house paint is selected according to the characteristics of the platform
The properties of the surface have a significant impact on the best paint on the surface. If the wood surface is previously untreated, there are more options. If the surface is a new coarse sawdust, the options are almost unlimited.
The roughness and porosity of the saw surface ensure the adhesion, absorption and thus its durability. All linseed oil paints, the Roslag mahogany , and the most demanding soup paint .
The ecological red soil, traditionally cooked from cooked linseed oil, flour and pigments, is best adhered to a slightly rough bottom. The cooked paint, thought of as a paint in rural buildings, is an excellent choice of environmental conscious painter, and its deep, completely matte colors are also great for new city destinations.
Over the years, the surface of the cooking paint becomes floury and easily leaves with a sturdy root brush, which will lighten the groundwork when the service painting needs meet.
The Roslag mahogany is the best external paint for planing log
The log buildings were previously carved by hand, which left the log surface so rough and porous that the soup painted it well. Nowadays, most of the log is planed, and more and more board goods also get a smooth planed surface. Planing surfaces are new to the absorption and infection of surface treatment agents.
The new planed surface is slippery and dense as the planing closes the pores of the wood surface. Fresh planer logs and lamellar logs are also close because they contain extracts, which, of course, last for a few years. As the extracts and resin evaporates, the wood becomes porous or "grabs", and its ability to receive absorbent surface treatments, such as paint, improves considerably. As the pores open, the surface becomes coarse, which facilitates the adhesion of the paint.
The Roslag mahogany, which is heard and tar -contain, is an excellent external paint for planing logs. It is slowly absorbed deep into the surface of the wood and leaves the natural causes and patterns of the valuable log. Its natural land pigments in its own provide protection against UV radiation, and the tar when combined with linseed oil is an effective moisture protection. During this painting, the solvent -based Roslag Mahong solvent changes to a renewable plant -based coniferous tree that has naturally protective compounds from the surface.

The previous paint surface is crucial for maintenance painting
When considering maintenance painting, the first thing to do is to find out what kind of exterior paint has previously been on the surface to ensure the suitability of the new paint on the old paint.
Oil paints such as linen and petroleum oil paint are identified by a floury chalk surface. However, the entire coat of paint does not go off by brushing, such as the cooking paint, but under a thin floury layer, the old paint is cracked into small pieces of square that click when they are twisted in their fingers. The best choice for oil paint is oil paint.
Plastic -binding paints, in turn, come off as they age as strips that are bent and do not click when they are bent. On top of alkyd and various plastic bindings, linen or petroleum oil paint can be used after careful groundwork.
When swiping an old cooking or red paint surface, you can leave a dusty pigment on your fingers. If the paint comes off with a floury brush with a rigid brush, it is probably a cooking paint. The best paint on top of the red paint is a genuine cooking red, but if you want to replace the paint type, the old cooking paint must be removed very carefully before painting to ensure adhesion.
Linseed oil paint takes time and gaze
Linseed oil paint is traditionally the most durable paint. It is painted by churches, mansions and other value buildings, and is still painted. Church painting is an expensive and complex operation, and the paint must be particularly long lasting. The linseed oil paint leaves a beautiful semi -glossy surface that repels dirt and aging dignitarily by chalking the dims.
Linseed oil paint has sometimes been considered a goal of professionals, and although it fits the home painter just as well, it takes a little more time to paint, as linseed oil paint is painted twice in thin layers, rubbing tight wood. There are two other linseed oils in our range, which, for their ease, are ideal for a do-it-yourself painter: petroleum oil paint and a brand new linen oil .
New era outer paints of renewable plant-based raw materials
Petrol oil paint is a traditional linseed oil paint that contains a so -called light petroleum. lamp oil. It is heavily pigmented, ie it has excellent coverage and even covered with one -time painting.
Linen oil paint is the latest external paint that has arrived in our selection. It is also linseed oil paint, like petroleum oil paint, highly pigmented and one -time covering, but is bio -based and does not contain any petroxemia -derived petrocamed products. Linseed oil paints require a solvent that we have replaced with a renewable plant -based coniferous tree .
In Uula, we are committed to worrying about the environment, and to develop and produce responsible natural oil paints for the needs of modern people. All of our goals are binders in renewable natural oils. By switching to a thinner in a renewable plant-based solvent, we have created a new exterior paint based on renewable plant-based raw materials independent of fossil petroleum oil and relies on a solid Finnish tradition.
House paints are in need of service from time to time
Whatever the type of house paint you choose, all the exterior paints need service from time to time. Depending on the location of the house, wood surfaces may accumulate dirt, such as pollen or traffic -raised dust from nearby roads. Under prolonged humid and warm conditions, dirt accumulated on wooden surfaces may provide favorable growth conditions for mold spores. Therefore, it is good to remove dirt from time to time from the surfaces.
It is best to clean the dirt with a soft brush, sponge or rag using diluted cleaning solution and water. Uula paint detergent is well suited for this purpose. If mold or algae growth has formed on the surface, use Uula mold cleaning . Add plenty of water, the product can be diluted up to 1:10. Too severe detergent can damage the shine of the paint surface, thus contributing to the adhesion of the new dirt to the surface.
