How to correctly do with a painted wall? To find out, follow these guidelines:

1. Shrink the ceiling with a damp sponge or cloth.
2. If the paint began to wash off and foam, then you are dealing with water-based paint. It should be removed with a spatula, after leaving the surface moist for a few minutes.
3. If the paint is not washed off with water, then check for strength. Scratch with a spatula a line on the paint and try to peel it off with the flat side of the instrument. If the paint is scraped or crumbled, then it must be removed: the ground will not hold well on such a surface.
4. There are several ways to remove old paint: you can tear it with a spatula, if it goes well, you can use a special chemical solution or a building hair dryer.
5. If the paint is firmly seated on the wall, and nothing foreshadows shedding and splitting, then you can primer the surface directly on top of the paint. Only on top of the soil in this case it is possible to make the filler.

How to putty the ceiling of concrete

There are various ways to putty the ceiling. The main types of technology can be divided into ordinary putty and putty with a decorative pattern. If you are new to the extraction of ceilings, it would be more useful to dwell on the usual, but high-quality technology putty concrete ceiling.

Before starting the repair work, pay attention to the depths of unevenness on the concrete. If there are too large gaps between the slabs or very deep cracks in the concrete, then additional plastering of the surface is required.

If your concrete ceiling is ready for puttying, then arm yourself with tools and follow the instructions:

• The first step is preparing for the putty. You should prime the ceiling, minimizing the number of large irregularities, as well as providing the best adhesion of putty to the ceiling. One coat of primer will be enough. It is more convenient to apply a primer with a roller.
• On the dried up soil we put a putty. You will need at least 2 spatulas, a tool and a container to create a mixture, as well as a bucket for washing the tool( an electric drill with a mixer nozzle is suitable).
• So, after mixing the starter solution, gently shpaklyuem the surface of the ceiling. If the result seems satisfactory to you, if the irregularities are gone, then you can do 1 layer. If the initial problems in the form of deep unevenness of the ceiling surface are noticeable, then 2 layer should be applied after the first one dries completely.
• After the start completely aligns the ceiling, you can take the finish. Finishing putty is applied in the same way as the previous layer: by soft sliding movements distribute the mixture over the ceiling.
• After the finishing coat has dried, the ceiling must be ground. You can finish the finish with a construction net. Do not stop the action until the ceiling is perfectly flat.

Tools required for laying the ceiling

It is recommended to start work from a corner. Do not forget about the security measures: the ladder must be stable and strong. If possible, do work in union with an assistant.

How long the putty on the ceiling dries

The question of how much the plaster dries is becoming very important during repair work. The fact is that the application of each new layer should take place only after the previous one has dried completely. However, it is not easy to determine by eye whether the drying has fully taken place.

First of all, the drying time of the layers depends on the putty material:

1. Cement. This material withstands any moisture level, why it is used for any rooms, including bathrooms and kitchens. Also, cement is good in external repair. The average drying time is about 2 hours.
2. Gypsum is designed for dry rooms, but not suitable for kitchen and bathroom. He looks gentle and neat. The middle layer of gypsum will dry for 2-3 hours.
3. Polymeric putty. This kind is often used for finish under painting. With a polymer material will have to wait more: it takes a day to be sure of the completeness of the case.

Nevertheless, if you are not yet a professional, then you should wait for a long time. Your layer can be thicker than the one that was counted for counting.4-6 hours for cement and gypsum will become a reliable drying time.
