Matters needing attention in summer painting

Because paint requires high temperature and humidity, there are many things to pay attention to in both summer and winter. Today, Bian Xiao mainly talks about matters needing attention in drawing in summer.

1, pay attention to paint storage.

Due to the high temperature in summer and flammable paint, improper storage can easily lead to fire. Therefore, the paint should be stored in a cool and ventilated place in summer, and the sealing of the storage container must be good. Also pay attention to stay away from open flames and wire sockets to avoid leaving potential safety hazards.

2, extend the drying time of wall putty

Before painting the wall, it takes 1-3 times to scrape the putty, and the normal drying time is 1-2 days. In summer decoration, it is advisable to extend the time for putty to dry thoroughly as much as possible, generally 2-3 days. Because the weather is hot and humid in summer, especially when heavy rain comes, the putty will dry for a longer time.

3, metope is difficult to dry processing method

In summer, it is very easy to have the illusion that the wall has dried up. During construction, the construction personnel must ensure that the wall foundation is completely dry before painting the wall. In addition, if the wall is difficult to dry due to high humidity and high temperature, a dehumidifier can be used as an aid to speed up the drying of the wall.

4, metope paint to avoid rainy days.

Summer is not only hot but also rainy, so when painting walls in summer, you should avoid wet or rainy weather. Because during construction, the wall foundation is wet, and the paint is brushed before it is completely dry, moisture permeates the paint surface, making the paint film lose its adhesion, resulting in the wall protruding into a drum shape, thus affecting the decorative effect of the wall.
