Painting of walls, paints. Water-dispersion paints. Painting of facades
Advantage of water-dispersion paints against oil paints:
- water-dispersion paints are cheaper than oil paints;
- unlike oil paints, water dispersion colours dry out under room temperature within 1-2 hours.
- remains of non-dried water dispersion paint can be removed from working tools (with usual water) easier than remains of oil paint;
- when water-dispersion paints dry up, only water foams escape;
- water dispersion paints have high level of adhesion to different surfaces, which allows easy re-painting of construction without any special treatment;
- water-dispersion colours can be used on wet surfaces as well, while oil paints can be used on dry walls only;
- water dispersion paints are not flammable, and surfaces painted with them "breathe".
Main characteristics of water dispersion paints:
- ecological compatibility;
- fire and explosion safety;
- moisture resistance;
- quick drying-out;
- elasticity of coating;
- resistance to exposure of carbon dioxide and chlorine ions;
- resistance to dirt.
The most important fact is that water-dispersion paints are well stored in premises with high level of humidity and excessive load. For this reason they are perfectly suitable for painting of bathrooms and kitchens.
Water-dispersion paints can be used for painting of new and previously painted surfaces.
Field of use of water dispersion paints
Spectrum of use of water dispersion paints is rather wide depending on what paint is particularly used.
Water dispersion paints are provided for protective decorative painting of building facades and structures made of plaster, brick, gypsum and concrete foundations in moderate and cold climate.
Water dispersion paints can be also used for interior painting of building on surface-pattern papers or on concrete, brick and plastered surfaces.
There are also special water dispersion paints for roofs, which are provided for protective decorative painting of slate and tile roofs. Such paints can be also used for painting of facades of buildings made of plaster, brick, concrete or gypsum.
