I tried all the major brands and figured out how to pick the best option for the job. I share my experience with you, and at the same time talk about how to use liquid nails to keep everything firmly and long. [Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Liquid nails are ideal for bathrooms and other damp rooms [/ caption]
Use liquid nails can be both inside and outside the premises [/ caption]
Especially the selection and use of liquid nails
Good results can be achieved only if used liquid nails, intended for the particular type of work. The first section will tell about the main criteria for selection, while the second workflow will be described in detail. [Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"]Tips for choosing the composition
First you need to deal with the kinds of products. Only two of them:- Liquid Nails water-based;
- Compositions based on organic solvents.
- odorless. In the process, there is almost no odor, so you can carry out the installation in closed rooms without an additional ventilation;
- Security. Clay is practically harmless, you can work with him and without gloves;
- Ease of use. The composition is applied to the surface, whereupon the elements are pressed tightly together for a few minutes. Final hardening takes place during the day.
- Fear low temperatures. After freezing the base composition loses its properties. That is why water-based options can be used for interior applications only;
- Incompatibility with metals. Due to the fact that water-based glue, it is undesirable to use when bonding metallic elements.
- Versatility. The composition is suitable for interior and exterior repairs It works because the low temperature will not damage the organic binder;
- high reliability. fixing strength in this embodiment is higher than that of water-based compositions. This is particularly important when attaching heavy components, where reliability is of fundamental importance;
- A large assortment. Different types of compositions are used for different materials and bases. There are options specifically for plastic, plumbing, foam, and there are universal and heavy-duty compounds;
- Fast setting. This kind of product is gaining strength much faster than the water-based composition. This aspect is particularly important for emergency work;
When you select Always check the expiration date. Very often caught late compositions that do not provide adequate reliability of fastening.Products available in two package types:
- Tube 310 ml. This is the standard version, which is used more often. If you have liquid nails in a tube, the need for special gun;
- Tube 125 g. This option is great if you need to glue small items. Apply part of the tube is simple and convenient, just need to unscrew the cap and cut off the plug on the nose.
Description workflow
We will understand how to use liquid nails. on work instructions in the table below:Illustration | Description stage |
The tube is inserted into the gun. Everything is simple:
|
|
Bonding surfaces degreased. For these purposes it is possible to use a solvent or detergent. It is important to thoroughly clean all the places that will be connected later. | |
If necessary, surface dried. This is particularly important in the bathrooms. So do not wait, use the building or household hair dryer. Blow-drying is good for the fact that warm the surface more quickly stick together. | |
The composition is applied to one surface. Liquid Nails may be applied to the points or lines in a zigzag manner. An example of application is shown in the photo, but you can use any other option, depending on the shape and size of the pasted element. | |
Element is carefully pressed against the surface. It is important to place it in the right place. After pressing need to hold tacked product for 1-2 minutes (on the packaging says the exact time). During this time the liquid nails and glue grasped surface. |
Some types of compounds must be applied and set aside for 10 minutes. Thereafter, the element is pressed against the surface of one minute. Such variants are rare, most contemporary compositions glued immediately.[Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] If liquid nails need to dry for 10 minutes before bonding, they must be applied at both the glued element and the wall [/ caption] This option is not comparable to conventional nails, because it is suitable for all types of surface and allows you to quickly and securely connect products from different materials. The main thing - to choose the optimum type of adhesive. [Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] With the help of liquid nails, you can easily mirror will paste for ceramics, plaster or wood [/ caption]

Let us see what are the different types of substrates, and what works best for your environment. And then figure out how to fit the substrate under linoleum on the concrete floor, to create a perfect base for the coating. [Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Jute substrate is durable under linoleum [/ caption]
substrate types
Let us consider 5 main options:- Cork;
- Jute basis;
- Lining from flax;
- Combined embodiment;
- The material of foamed polyethylene.
Often the question arises whether the substrate under the linoleum is necessary? If you have a perfectly smooth, well-insulated and soundproofed floorThen use the liner is not necessary.But such grounds are very rare, so in most cases, before laying the flooring need to be laid and the substrate. [Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Plain concrete floor has many small irregularities, so it necessarily fit lining before linoleum flooring [/ caption]
cork
[Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Stopper - eco-friendly material, is well suited as a basis for linoleum [/ caption] cork liner by linoleum on the concrete floor has the following advantages:- Long service life. Quality material retains the properties of over 25-30 years;
- High sound insulation characteristics. If you need to isolate the noise floor from the ground floor, the cap fit perfectly;
- Environmentally friendly. As part of only natural ingredients, this option can be used in any room.
- convenient packaging. Cork underlay on the floor under the linoleum is manufactured in rolls of a width of 1 meter and 10 meters long. They are easy to carry and lay;
- Many options thickness. You can buy a bed with a thickness of 2 to 10 mm. The thicker the material, the softer surface is obtained, but its strength is reduced.
- Softness. In places where floor heavy furniture should eventually formed the recess. If you decide to make a permutation, then be prepared for the fact that the irregularities remain on the surface;
- High price. Price roll 2 mm thickness is 1400-1500 rubles to 4 mm version will cost 3500 rubles, and if you need a very thick substrate is 10 mm, then you will pay 8,000 rubles per roll. Often the more expensive lining of the linoleum.
You can put the cork material with a coating for improving foiled floor insulation. It is more expensive by about 10%, but it creates a reflective effect and allows you to save heat in the room.[Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] The cork material with a reflective coating well suited for building a cold floor [/ caption]
The substrate of jute
Jute mat under the linoleum on the concrete floor has the following advantages:- Rigidity. The material holds its shape well, not crushed or sags over time. Lining is great for areas with high load on the floor;
- Durability. The service life of the basics of jute is 75 years or more. That is, it is several times longer than most of linoleum and the replacement of worn-out cover and base can not change;
- absorbability. Jute is not afraid of water, so it does not rot over time. A special treatment given to the material is also resistant to combustion;
- Several variants of density. Available options can be found in density from 450 to 750 grams per square meter. The denser the material, the better it resists deformation;
- Several variants of the thickness. I have seen material on 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm. This range is sufficient for any type of coating.
- reasonable cost. Price per roll with a width of 1 meter and 10 meter ranges from 1000 to 1300 rubles. It's cheaper cork, with the characteristics of this embodiment is not inferior.
linen backing
This type of substrate is much like jute, but has its own characteristics: [caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Litter for linoleum differs from flax excellent breathability [/ caption]- Environmentally friendly. It is completely natural material made by stalling on special equipment without the addition of glue. To further secure the mats are stitched;
- Good insulation performance. This option is not as tough as jute, but the heat and sound insulation performance is not worse;
- breathability. Material excellent air permeability and does not prevent the evaporation of moisture from the ground. Due to this, the risk of mold is much lower;
- Different thicknesses. It is possible to acquire sub-base thickness of 3 to 7 mm. I recommend using version 5 mm thick, it is suitable for the majority of the grounds and well eliminates minor irregularities;
- Affordable price. Square meter of the substrate cost about 100 rubles. In my opinion, this variant is optimal in terms of price and quality.
combined option
Combined substrate under linoleum is manufactured from jute, flax and wool. Such a combination of components causes a number of advantages:- High thermal performance. Natural wool gives this type of product has the highest heat performance of all options. If you have cold floors, I advise you to use this variant;
- Strength. Jute mats gives rigidity, and they do not subside with time;
- wearing qualities. The service life of the combined version is 50 years or more. Structure of wool, flax and jute very well keeps its shape even under high loads;
- low price. Cost per square meter is 150-200 rubles. The material generally has a thickness of 5 mm and is produced in large rolls. In stores you can buy by the meter.
The substrate of polyethylene foam
It is a modern version, which has the following features:- Low price. This is the cheapest type of products from all per square meter you will pay from 10 to 50 rubles, depending on the type and thickness;
- Availability. This option can be found at almost any hardware store;
- A large assortment. The material is sold in rolls or in the form of rigid boards. Also different thickness, it is from 2 to 10 mm;
When choosing sure to check the elasticity of the material. It is very simple: the substrate is compressed fingers. If it lends itself very easily and after clicking on the surface are dented, so before you poor quality option.[Caption id = "attachment_NN" align = "aligncenter" width = "600"] Good substrate different elasticity, after clicking on the surface should be no dents [/ caption] This embodiment has the following disadvantages:
- fragility. The service life of such a base is not more than 5-10 years. Material inevitably sags over time, and all appear the linoleum surface irregularities;
- airtightness. Polyethylene is not breathable and moisture, so it can be formed under the mold, if the surface is wet.
As substrate stack
To work with your own hands is easy. Instructions for the work is almost the same for all types of materials:Illustration | Description stage |
The surface of the prepared.
|
|
Eliminated all significant irregularities. If you have nodules on the floor of the solution, they need to knock down a chisel or sanded. Holes and cracks smeared cement mortar and leveled spatula. level difference should not exceed 2-3 mm. | |
stretches the substrate. Material gently straightened and stacked along one wall. When placing the substrate under the linoleum flooring on concrete floors importantly it immediately spread it on the surface to involve no wrinkles, and no material Skewing. | |
lining glued.
|
|
Cutting is performed on site. No need to measure and cut pieces in advance, as the geometry of the room can be non-ideal. Cutting the best conventional construction with a knife on the floor and walls of the joint line. | |
Laid linoleum. It should be placed with a small margin, as shown in the photos, and let ripen overnight. The coating is fixed you selected method. |
