Painting wallpaper for painting
Coatings, which can be changed colorlessly during the period of operation, are classified into ready-to-paste tinted in a certain shade or white, specially designed for painting. The first species can be renewed only after a few years, and the second - is subject to mandatory painting even during the repair.
Despite the fact that coloring of the wallpaper for painting gives the surface an additional chic( noble dullness or glamor shine), it's worth noting that the aesthetic component in our case is in second place. The main purpose of the applied layer is as follows:
- coating acquires increased strength properties( fire resistance and high resistance to mechanical stress, abrasions, moisture);
- the wall becomes monolithic, the joints between the panels are masked.
But, as you know, the quality and effectiveness of the result depends on how to paint the wallpaper for painting.
Wallpapers for painting - what to paint?
Believe me, from the choice of paint for 90 percent depends on the future appearance of the room, and the durability of the wallpaper itself, and how many times you can change their color scheme. And only 10 percent of successful interior design depends directly on the choice of wallpaper, which affects the permissible number of color changes.
- For paper wallpapers this value does not exceed 7 times.
- For non-woven fleece with vinyl coating - no more than 10. Even if you are keen and will want to change the color range of the interior every year, then pasted coatings will be enough for you for 10 years. Of course, this is possible only with careful handling: after all, vinyl is easily scratched, and dents remain on it, which does not add aesthetics.
- More durable non-woven wallpaper for painting can be modified up to 15 times.
- It is permissible to cover glass pavements with a new color even more times, but in this case there is a limiting value of 20 layers.
It is very important to know that use for dispersion of color of any of the above types of coatings, water-based dispersion or emulsion paints are acceptable! The most commonly used acrylic( finished shade) or chalked immediately before the start of white work. The application of other coatings on specialized wallpapers can upset you with an unexpected result - instead of increasing strength and acquiring the effect of a uniform coating - they will break or deform.
