Currently, one of the most popular finishing materials for many consumers is acrylic paints - for the reason that almost any surface is subject to them.
There are more than enough advantages of this building material in comparison with other types of paint and varnish products: they are not exposed to
ultraviolet rays, they are characterized by quick drying and good adhesion to the treated surface.
Acrylic paints are environmentally friendly, therefore, they are widely used in the decoration of medical institutions, preschool day care centers, as well as residential premises. This finishing material does not have an unpleasant odor; it is easily washed off from the skin of a person and the tools used in the work. The surface painted with this paint not only has a beautiful appearance, but is also protected from external influences.
This type of building material has such properties and operational characteristics due to its composition.
In the structure of acrylic paint, the main role is played by the polymer emulsion, which is the connecting link between water and the pigment used. However, in order for acrylic paint for wood to have high strength, not to undergo peeling and cracking, the use of even a high-quality polymer emulsion is not quite enough. Of great importance in the manufacture of acrylic paints is the correct selection as a percentage of all the components of this material for finishing work. Only under these conditions, acrylic
paint for the ceiling will be provided with good adhesion properties and endowed with the ability to pass water vapor and
air masses through it
.
Despite the versatility of acrylic compositions, in the manufacture of finishing work, it is necessary to take into account the type of surface to be painted. For painting wooden, plastered, concrete and brick surfaces of structural elements of building facades, acrylic paints of special manufacture are used (only for facade works).
Manufacturers of
facade paints have developed a technology for the manufacture and selection of components of this building material in accordance with the conditions of its operation. But it should be borne in mind that the surface to be painted must be properly prepared before work and primed without fail.
Approximately the same methodology for selecting acrylic paints should be followed when performing finishing work inside the building, but there is one small nuance: the quality of preparation of painted surfaces should be excellent. For this reason, in addition to primers, putty is used in preparing the surface, and only after that acrylic paints are applied. The approximate consumption rate of acrylic compositions is always indicated by the manufacturer on the package or in a separate instruction for their use. It directly depends on the application method. It is recommended to apply paints with a spray gun, paint roller or brush.
