Bath acrylic instruction manual.
Actually liquid acrylic or filling bath, very easy to use. From the name of a filling bath - just pour and get a new one! With restoration it is easy to manage independently. Here is a small instruction that we will need:
- Gloves, protective mask.
- Bulgarian.
- Rubber spatula.
- Sandpaper of different grain sizes.
- Liquid acrylic 3,5 kg, hardener for it.
- Empty container with a spout to pour from it.
We begin with the preparation of the surface of the old bath. Detergents are laundered from dirt and plaque, degrease in any way. With the help of sandpaper, we equalize all chips, cracks in one level with a common surface, and with the help of sandpaper get rid of extra large rust. If there are chips with large notches, then they need to be puttied using an automotive putty that dries quickly. Fifteen, twenty minutes, you need to once again sand the place where the putty put. Wash everything with running water and collect warm water to warm the surface. After fifteen minutes, drain the water and quickly dry the surface with a hairdryer. Unscrew the valve and the pipes. Put some containers under the openings to drain excess acrylic. Preparation is over.
We prepare liquid acrylic. Three and a half kilograms, usually enough to restore the standard bath. Prepare the mixture according to the instructions and carefully mix it for ten, fifteen minutes. We pour part of acrylic into an empty container with a spout, and we begin the process of restoration. It is necessary to start pouring from the edge of the edge, and gently, slowly. In this process, you can not stop, take breaks or pour, already poured.
Begin to pour from the corner of the bath, where it adjoins the wall. Pour it so that a layer of four or five centimeters is obtained. And we continue to continue to pour evenly, moving along the entire edge, while there will be streaks, which in no case can be touched. Let them flow freely. So we make a full circle, and the next we take to do from the middle of the side, just from there, where the runoff from the first round ended. When finished, the bottom will be a very thick layer of acrylic, gently moving the spatula lightly leveling the surface in the direction of the hole. The excess should drain. We leave everything to dry completely, from one to four days.
So, everyone was convinced that with the help of liquid acrylic for baths you can save on buying a new one. We will be grateful if you leave your feedback in the comments.
