The slopes on the windows with their hands

slopes on the windows - one of the most difficult processes in the final stage of finishing.Window opening inevitably gets damaged, even if accurate replacement windows.The cost of finishing slopes slightly higher than the usual plastering.But the question of how to make the slopes on the windows properly excites many zealous owners.

Using simple techniques, directing and painting the corners, you can make great slopes on the windows with their hands.The main thing in this work - the right to put on the spirit level rails.

Two types of rails for window slopes

1. In the first case, a perfectly aligned boards or slats.With the help of the guide level are set at the edge of the window opening.For the correct formation of the guide contour bevel applies specifically cropped to size.
2. Malka cut from plywood or flat Boards with the highest right angles, straight and smooth.When the spraying plaster, straight edge bevel sets the flat surface of window slopes.For fixing using nails or screws.
3. In the second case, the guides are set from paint and plaster over the lighthouses.According to the guide is impingement plaster mass with a trowel and spread with the rule.Plus this method is that the guide slope walled up in the body and performs a reinforcement of corners, which are always a sore point of the window opening.

to perform work on the finishing of window slopes

Materials:

1. bag of plaster mixture or adhesive for the tiles.It is better to water and frost.
2. Finishing putty (1-2 kg) suitable acrylic and ready-mix.
3. Primer - 1 liter.Not only deep impregnation, but also water-repellent and antifungal.
4. Reinforced fiberglass mesh number 80 and №100.
5. with water-based exterior white paint 1.2 kg and dye -pigment.
6. little gypsum or plaster, consumables: nails, screws, sandpaper, etc.

Tools:

1. spatula made of stainless steel, narrow - (4-5 cm), middle- (8-10 cm).and a - (25-30 cm).
2. trowel or trowel.
3. rule grater.
4. Painting brush.

Finish outer slopes of windows.

1. After installation of plastic or wooden windows, as a rule, they are now set on the mounting foam removed spoke bumps hardened foam knife for drywall.On the contour of the window, contiguity space are sealed with silicone sealant or polyurethane tape with the effect of self-expansion (PSUL).
2. But exterior paint adhesion does not provide absolute protection.Ideal to use frost-resistant tile adhesive.The outer slopes of the windows are made by wet method.

Plaster slopes window from the inside

1. simple plastering slopes of windows, remarkable for its simplicity.To do this you will need a dry mortar based on cement and plaster.It is enough to dissolve with water to the consistency of thick cream, and the mixture is ready to plaster rabotam.Raboty finishing slopes of windows begin after the completion of plaster work on the ceiling and walls.
2. surface slopes cleared tabs are removed and large cracks and holes smeared alabaster.Along the perimeter of the window opening is finished with the angular edge of the escarpment.Plaster layers alternately stacked one behind the other, after drying the previous one, so the finishing work on the slopes can take up to two - three days.
3. In terms are set and maintained lighthouses.It is necessary to take into account the gravity layer of small boxes in the corner of the slope.Angles dawn slopes must have the same degree.
4. in small breasts cement plaster is applied to the vertical plane of the window slopes and leveled wooden Malka with a curved handle.To increase the surface strength is laid reinforced fiberglass mesh №80 or №100.
5. Alignment of the last layer is done using direct rail and overwritten polyurethane foam float.Once dry slopes shpaklyuyut acrylic putty, polished grid float and painted with latex paint.

Installing plastic window slopes

1. task to perform plastic window slopes with their own hands is difficult, but doable.It requires high precision and care to lay out at the installation.PVC panels are commonly used and a range of profiles for them.A big plus of such panels - no need to paint them.
2. Beautiful slopes independently of plastic, with good skill, can be mounted in two - three hours.Panel mounting cut out a sharp knife for drywall accurately verified dimensions.To attach the adhesive is applied on the basis of silicone.
3. Alternatively, you can make obreshetnik of rail, and then mount it on the mounting profile and corner panel of small screws - screws.
4. Void filled with foam or mineral wool.If you choose the mounting foam, then at the time of polarization, be careful that there are no distortions.Weak and movable portions can be fixed masking tape or technical.

For slopes of plastic, choose the panel resistant to UV light and mechanical damage.To do this, there are commercially reinforced panels, with a strong face layer, even with cavities filled with polystyrene foam.For more information on installation and finishing of window openings are on video.
