The paint inside the house battens

trim lining - one of the most convenient ways of interior decoration.This material looks great in a city apartment and a private home, suitable for almost any room.Since the time of the wood darkens considerably and loses its appeal, many owners think about what color the linings inside the house to keep the texture of the coating.

Compositions for coating lining

tools for wood are divided into protective and decorative.The first help to extend the service life, the latter intended for interior decoration.Before lining the walls lining passes the necessary treatment to protect against mold, moisture, UV light, but over time this coating wears and needs updating.That is why periodically wood should be impregnated with flame retardants, antibacterial compositions and cover a variety of paints.

Compositions for coating lining	Description
retardants	Flame retardants reduce the flammability of wood level, which is especially important in a residential area.In case of fire, it will slow down the spread of fire and help extinguish it quickly.Flame retardants do not emit harmful substances and do not affect the appearance of the finish.
Germicidal compositions	These funds will help avoid infection and stop the fungus already growing mold.Even in a dry place between the seams of panels can accumulate pairs, and in combination with the dust - it is the ideal environment for microbial growth.Over time, antiseptics washed out or evaporate, so need repeated treatment.There are special biovlagozaschitnye compounds that simultaneously kill mold, deter pests, give a tree and decorative water-repellent properties.The cost of such a composition is quite high, but it replaces the antiseptic, stain and varnish.
Stain	Impregnating also perform antiseptic function, but additionally change the hue of the wood.One of the most popular is considered impregnation stain that stains the surface in a darker color.Stain does not create a film on the surface and absorbed into the pores of the material at a certain depth, so that the texture lining is clearly visible.The impregnated stained surface must be covered with varnish, otherwise the panel will appear dirty.
Linseed oil	Flaxseed oil is also great is absorbed into the wood, solidifying its surface several times.Lining, impregnated with linseed oil, not afraid of water, a long time is not affected by the fungus, it has a beautiful matte finish and a pronounced texture.
Drying	But linseed oil, which used to be widely used for the treatment of lining, is gradually losing its way.Varnish impregnated surface quickly darkens and begins to stick in 2-3 years.
Bleachers	If bunk appeared dark spots, stripes, bluish tint areas, conduct bleach processing wood.There are several varieties of this tool, which differ in the way of use and efficiency.To remove wood stain bleaching compositions applied to the surface for a certain time, and then washed with water.In most cases, the darkened areas original color gain.
Varnishes for wood	for internal work necessary to use acrylic paints, which are the most harmless.Such coatings have a dual function - to protect the surface and make it decorative.The first coating layer is necessarily transparent, and the second pigments are added.A good alternative is a varnish wax mixture, which also effectively protect the wood and give bunk semi-gloss.
Oilify	Oil paint is often used for decorative treatment of wood and siding - is no exception.The paint penetrates deep into the pores of the material, is moisture, is highly resistant to external influences.But while its water vapor transmission rate is too low, on the drying it takes a long time, and the color fades quickly.
Acrylate paint	Acrylate paint exceeds the oil in all respects: it is a long time does not lose luster and color saturation penetrates perfectly into the lining dries faster.Its vapor barrier properties are very high, and the coating that it creates, does not crack when the temperature of panel disfiguration.The only disadvantage of acrylic paints - it is their high cost.
Acrylic akvalaki	Acrylic akvalaki - is the best option for the treatment of lining.They are harmless, creating a durable decorative coating with high resistance to moisture and abrasion do not fade over time.Lining treated with such means, is very attractive and expensive.

lining Preparation for painting

If the dye is selected, it should be properly prepare the surface of the panels.From the quality of training depends on the quality of the painting, so this step is very important.

To work needed:

• pumice;
• clean rag;
• paint brush;
• primer.

Step 1. Clean panels

surface must first clean the linings of contaminants.Take 5 liters of warm water, it is diluted in 150 g of soda and then the resulting solution was washed entire surface.For better ink adhesion to the previous layer coating wood recommended completely removed, particularly if there are cracks and delamination.To facilitate this process, you can use a hair dryer building, and a metal spatula: the coating is heated dryer, and then a layer of paint is easy to hook spatula.There is a special fluid in the shops: a little money applied to the surface, waiting for the time specified on the package, and then rub the battens with a stiff brush and washed.

old oil paint can be removed with a piece of foil and iron: the foil is applied to the surface slowly to iron iron and layers of paint is removed with a spatula for 20 seconds.After cleaning, carefully inspect all linings: remove mildew stains darkened areas treated with special dyes.Finally, wipe the board clean cloth to remove the smallest pieces of paint and dirt.If there is a panel with injuries, they should be replaced.

Step 2. Grinding

Pure battens must be carefully oshlifovat, and is best suited for this pumice or fine-grained sandpaper.To when grinding is not to miss any plot, it is recommended to divide the casing into small squares and process them sequentially.Do not apply pressure to the surface of the panel or a long time to rub a lot, grind should be equitably.

Step 3. Priming

Priming After grinding battens wipe dust and applied with a brush or spray primer, carefully treating the joints between the boards.One primer layer will suffice.Very often primed surfaces produce the same composition that is intended for painting.

Step 4. Paint lining

painted on wooden battens need to brush or spray.Brushes need two - the average width and narrow, so to paint hard to reach areas.To cover was a strong and durable, the paint should be applied in 2-3 coats minimum thickness.

Work procedure when painting:

• paint is well stirred and cast in a little plastic container;
• brush dipped to half the length of the pile;
• brush applied to the surface and are smooth movement along the panel;
• subsequent movement is performed in one direction without touching the already treated areas;
• around corners and narrow openings used brush.
  

  The paint battens

should begin from the top to the occasional drips do not spoil the painted surfaces.When this layer of paint is completely dry, you can apply a second.Finishing coat should be the most delicate;it is applied from the top down light uniform motion.The same technology is applied and akvalak, but it is necessary to periodically stir during operation.
