Finishing slopes plastering

If you decide to align and plaster soffits, process is in follows :

• First clean surface should be well primed, preferably in two layers, but the second time the primer is appliedonly after drying of the first layer.
• Next turns corners evenness of slopes.If the determined deviation from the norm, this fact should be taken into account when installing the reinforcing parts.These angles can be aligned with small deviations from the vertical.

• then need the corners slopes plumb and level to expose the perforated corners.They are best put on the finishing putty , is sold as a finished product.Her applied with a spatula on the slopes angles - structure will serve for bonding corner and gives an opportunity to align perfectly vertical or horizontal position.Excess solution that stood out through the corner hole, you need to immediately remove with a spatula.Having obtained the corners of the ideal, under the corners of the solution is allowed to dry.
• If the surface is uneven slope, before you set up on the corners of the perforated corners of the door jamb, you can set the direction with the help of fixing it along the narrow strip of drywall width 8 - 10 mm.This material is fixed to the wall with a putty .If a on on gypsum-based, then it freezing occurs quickly enough.
• Edge strips and drywall installed reinforcing area will be points that need to connect solution putty and level the plaster.
• Next, after drying corrective wall elements, diluted putty in the proportions indicated on the package, up to pasty consistency.

• With trowel ready to throw in the composition wall, from the floor .Sketched out the necessary amount, about a meter tall, putty align rule.Beacon in this case is mounted on the corner of the perforated area and a strip of drywall, fixed along the door frame.

• ceiling part opening putty will be more difficult.On his putty is applied a wide spatula and dub short rule. then putty is applied to the wall on qq true opening , and it covers the upper part of the metal bracket.

• treated filler slopes left to dry.The timing of this process depends on the thickness and composition of the putty .

• Installation finished parts start with the ceiling of the opening .For this purpose on a plaster applied to the workpiece glue multiple slides, and then the ale nt cr epko pressed to the installation site and fixed in this position previously prepared props.

• then cut off with the details of the GVL-wall slopes.On the prepared elements reflux akzhe fit small slides glue, and whether Article etc. izhimaetsya the wall and shall be verified on the level.Sheets of plasterboard can be fixed to the wall with dowels precast, making for them through, but not too wide holes with an electric drill or punch.

• Then all the joints are coated filler , leveled, and after drying - thoroughly stripped.
• Further, the entire surface is coated with a primer slope.
• To achieve an ideal surface, applied a thin (1 mm) layer of finishing putties.He finally hides all the bumps, joints and holes of the dowels.

Krepjat drywall and otherwise, in the event that you need to level the surface, closing the considerable thickness of the walls.

• To do this, on the surface of the slope is fixed bars of the desired section or metal profiles, angles or U-shaped, creating so crate , which will help alignwall, giving it the desired direction.This mounting method has the advantage that between fixed on the wall can be further put napravlyayushih heating material.
