Hammer paint is widely used in modern interiors. It is used for painting various metal structures.
After the paint dries, a coating is created on the surface of the metal, which imitates the embossing resulting from hammer blows on the metal. Hammer paint can have a different base (epoxy, alkyd-styrene, acrylic) and filler (aluminum powder, fine glass, and other materials). Hammer effect paint has anti-corrosion properties, gives the coating strength, enhances adhesion to metals. This type of paint is characterized by high resistance to temperature fluctuations, vibrations, as well as atmospheric moisture. Hammer paint is used for painting metal surfaces for industrial use, housings of electrical appliances and other things. Quite often, the presented paint is used to form anti-corrosion protective coatings on both steel and galvanized surfaces.
Hammer paint perfectly hides various product defects. To paint the product, you will need some equipment and materials: hammer paint, roller, brush, acetone, thinner 646-648, gloves, rust primer.
Before painting, the metal surface is cleaned of paint residues and rust. To do this, you can use a metal brush or sandpaper. After cleaning, dirt and dust are removed from the metal surface. Next, the entire surface is degreased with acetone. Surfaces to be painted are primed with primer-enamel on rust. Surfaces are painted at temperatures from -10 to +30 degrees.
Before the process of painting, hammer paint is thoroughly mixed. After the primer has dried, the product is covered with a layer of the above paint, for this you can use a paint sprayer, roller or brush. During the staining process, the enamel is diluted with a solvent. Hammer paint is applied in several layers, after the first layer has completely dried, the second is immediately applied, and then the third layer of enamel. An important nuance in this process is that each subsequent layer should be thicker than the previous one.
The paint dries within a day, a unique patterned pattern forms on the surface. To prevent the formation of an ugly pattern on vertical surfaces, the enamel must be applied in a thin layer. After painting, do not forget to ventilate the room. Use paint thinner to remove paint stains on tools.
Many are wonderingWhat paints are used to paint concrete floors? A distinctive feature of concrete floors is that they are highly durable and durable. Most often they can be seen in utility rooms, production workshops, garages and even in some residential areas. Their most vulnerable spot is the top layer. The surface of concrete is dusty, therefore it has an unattractive appearance. Most often, concrete floors are covered with traditional flooring or modern concrete floor paint.
