    Latex paint is one of the most commonly used interior wall decoration materials. Latex paint industry is also very mature, many large brands of products after time testing, the choice of product range is also very large. So here's the question, how do you choose?
    the most important concern of all, perhaps:
    environmental protection
    China
    .
    In fact, I personally feel that the environmental problems of latex paint is not as serious as artificial plate (for residents), latex paint in the construction process will emit most of the harmful substances, generally finished decoration will be ventilated for a period of time to stay, the basic problem is not big, unless it is really inferior products.
    latex paint environmental protection only need to pay attention to one indicator:
    ACCORDING to
    TVOC,
    is the sum of volatile organic matter
    . Contains benzene, aldehyde, aromatics and so on. The state will make the latex paint TVOC factory regulations, anyway, this value is
    the lower the better
    .
    Personal Recommendation
    : If the special pursuit of environmental requirements, the budget is relatively adequate, optional purchase of imported products, such as Germany, the United States has several brands of pure imported products, VOC indicators can reach very low or even detectable standards. If the budget is general, I think the basic problems of big brand products are not big.
    addition, but also to mention that the primer is still to be used, especially with the finished water-resistant putty words, must choose anti-alkali primer. In addition to anti-alkali mold, primer can also save the amount of paint-free, usually brush the primer twice paint.
    there are some common problems about latex paint, previously summarized, but also before I went to a latex paint international large enterprises to visit the exchange with insiders after the summary:
    1, latex paint can be diluted with water?
    can. Latex paint barrels are marked with water ratio, conventional white and light color products recommended 10-20%, avoid excessive dilution.
    2, can you brush the primer without brushing the primer, brush the paint directly?
    the use of primers, un-construction primers easy to cause paint diseases: peeling, powdering, uneaseded gloss, bubbles, poor scrub resistance and so on. In addition, the use of primers can also reduce the amount of paint.
    3, latex paint needs to be brushed several times?
    is usually 1 bottom 2 sides. Is to brush the primer 1 time and then brush the paint 2 times. But if the color paint to achieve the painting effect, you may have to brush 3 times or even 4 times free paint, depending on the construction effect.
    4, dark, colorful notes. Dark color (low light reflection value) and bright color (high color saturation
    when choosing dark, bright color is recommended to paint primer to ensure the uniformity of the substrate; This article was originally caused by Mr. Matsuo, please WeChat search decoration for 33 days.
    5, latex paint painting method is sprayed well, brushed well or rolled well?
    relatively speaking, the general roller coating and spraying with more, relatively good spray effect, but the disadvantage is that the amount of paint is large and not easy to repair, repair needs to redo the entire wall.
    6, the color card color and the final effect is the same?
    't be exactly the same! Due to the different nature of color card printing ink and paint slurry, coupled with light, background, environment, brush area, vision and other effects, there will be a little difference.
    color difference between 7 and different batches of paint?
    will. It is recommended that different batches of paint be mixed and constructed to avoid significant color difference.
    be 8, winter can be constructed?
    construction of the construction of latex paint requires the base temperature is greater than 10 degrees, the outer wall latex paint requires the base temperature is greater than 5 degrees. So the temperature also has an impact on construction.
    9, latex paint brush after how long can be completely dry?
    generally speaking, the paint system takes 7 days to fully dry out before it can perform its proper protection function. So pay attention to protection within 7 days.
