Paint Facades Coloring of facades - one of the most important construction work. It is not surprising, as the facade - a person of the building. Alas, but the fronts are too many enemies. This aggressive and atmospheric effects of the environment, and ultraviolet radiation and industrial pollution, and moisture (rain, snow), and the influence of biological factors (mold, fungi, microorganisms). How is all this fighting? How to ensure that the facade of the building served long time without losing their decorative qualities? Materials for painting the facade of the modern facade materials market offers a great variety of coatings and technologies for the facade. This - curtain walls, and vinyl steel siding, facade tiles, etc. However, despite this, the most widely used in modern construction are paints for facades. Plastering and painting the facade - is still the most popular ways to update and finish facade surfaces. A significant portion of facade problems can be solved by painting the facade. In addition, it is the most economical way to facades. Facade Coloring A significant part of the facade of problems can be removed with the help of reliable and high quality finishing of building facades. The optimal solution in this case is the use of protective and decorative paint facade materials, which not only provide long term protection of the facade from the ravages of the environment, but also give the surface a decorative appearance. The main surfaces of the facades to be color, are concrete and plaster. These mineral surfaces are different capillary-porous surface. It is through the pores of the concrete into the water can easily penetrate and wet, which significantly accelerates the process of destruction of the surface. Humidity of the substrate - a major cause of most injuries facades. Any humidity (moisture of the soil, water vapor,...

The Joints In order to improve the protective properties of the joints of panels of the film is recommended to glue the sticky tape (duct tape). Coatings based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC), often incorrectly called linoleum easy enough to wash out of most kinds of pollution, so protect them well enough to lay a floor thick polyethylene film. In the course of work maximum amount of dirt is formed by perimeter of the room. In this regard, the protective film preferably stick tape to the skirting. Coving dismantled only in case of replacement, replacement of flooring or parquet sanding. If you do not repaint baseboards required, they should protect the masking tape. Masking tape - a special adhesive tape on paper, which after the work is easy (as opposed to tape) is removed from the protected surface. Decorative borders with sockets and switches removed, and 'stuffing' stick with masking tape. Naturally, all electrical circuits must first be de-energized. Dismantling of old coating Preparation of walls and ceilings begins with dismantling (removal) of existing coatings. Currently, the most common ceiling coverings is a water-dispersion paint. In old houses ceilings trimmed with lime wash. More rarer ceilings, painted with oil or alkyd enamels. Water-dispersion paint and enamel are not dissolved by water, so wash them with the ceiling surface is virtually impossible. Sufficiently removed by steel spatula and cover any loose parts of the crack angle to embroider the same spatula. Enamel is desirable to handle with sandpaper to increase the roughness and improve the adhesion with newly inflicted layers. Lime wash must be washed before the underlying layer of putty. It's simple, but very time-consuming operation, run by the thoroughness of which depends on the quality of the new coating adhesion to the base (residues separating layer of whitewash are significantly reducing the...
