Paint is a fundamental material in home decoration. However, with the rise of modern trends, paint has also become a creative tool. Many young people now choose to paint their own walls, creating unique and beautiful patterns. But how should paint be used correctly in home decoration? Proper usage not only enhances aesthetics but also plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy indoor environment.
**Small Primer: A Must-Have Before Painting**
When painting walls, you might face some common issues. For instance, the wall may absorb the paint too quickly, causing the latex paint components to not spread evenly. You might also notice color fading soon after painting, or even peeling, cracking, and mold appearing on the surface—problems that can be frustrating.
The root cause often lies in the alkalinity of the wall, especially in humid conditions. To prevent these problems, it's essential to apply a water-based sealing primer before applying the topcoat. This not only reduces overall decoration costs but also improves long-term durability and appearance. The primer acts as a barrier against alkali substances and water-soluble salts, preventing the wall from becoming alkaline over time. It also smooths the surface, making the topcoat application easier and more efficient, thus reducing paint consumption. Make sure to use a primer that matches your topcoat brand to avoid chemical reactions. Always check the packaging instructions for the correct type and finish.
High-quality paint can significantly elevate the look and feel of your space, adding depth and sophistication. It’s best to purchase from well-known retailers like Haomeijia Building Materials Supermarket or Meijia Decoration Plaza, where quality and reliability are guaranteed.
**Correctly Using Paint and Putty to Fix Wall Cracks and Peeling**
Even with high-quality paint, cracks or peeling can still occur after renovation. This often happens due to poor-quality putty or improper application. Interior wall latex paint is known for its ease of use, fast drying, and good scrub resistance. However, some low-quality products fail to meet industry standards, leading to early deterioration.
Common coating problems include:
1. **Poor Quality of Low-Grade Products**: Many budget paints don’t meet the national standard of at least 200 scrub cycles. This is often due to cost-cutting measures during production.
2. **Unstable Quality from Small Manufacturers**: Smaller companies may lack proper technology, management, and quality control, resulting in inconsistent product performance.
3. **Lack of Strict Standards and Testing**: Some manufacturers skip batch testing or ignore quality checks, leading to subpar products entering the market.
**Three Types of Interior Wall Paint**
1. **Low-Grade Water-Soluble Paints**: Made by dissolving polyvinyl alcohol in water, these paints are not resistant to water or alkali and tend to peel when exposed to moisture. They’re typically used in temporary or low-cost spaces.
2. **Latex Paints**: These are water-based and offer improved water and weather resistance compared to the first type. They come in various finishes, such as flat or glossy, and are considered medium to high-end options. Although pricier, they provide excellent performance and are increasingly popular.
3. **Colorful Paints**: Popular today, these paints use nitrocellulose as the film-forming agent. They can create multiple color patterns with a single spray, offering a vibrant and dynamic look.
While exterior latex paints require strong UV resistance for long-lasting color, interior wall paints focus more on scrub resistance and durability. Choosing the right type based on your needs ensures better results and longer-lasting beauty.
