- Old paintwork is removed with a scraper.
Staining technique
Before starting work, you need to shake the jar with varnish and mix its contents. We should not forget about this during the paintwork, as periodic stirring contributes to an even distribution of particles and pigments of the paint composition.
Experts recommend applying varnish in 1-2 layers, and when painting furniture indoors and outdoors, apply 3 layers. Basically, people who have extensive experience with this composition, apply it with a roller, brush, sponge or spray method.
Dyeing is carried out in the direction of the fibers of the wood material.After the first layer has been applied, the working surface is ground in order to remove the fibers of the rising tree. All colors produced by the manufacturer can be mixed with each other or even lightened with a colorless antiseptic varnish.
The final color of the surface to be painted depends on factors such as the initial shade of the wood coating, wood species and of course, on the number of layers applied. When painting a large surface area, it is recommended to mix the required amount of antiseptic varnish in one container to ensure a uniform shade.
Rules for surface use
There are special rules for caring for a surface that has been painted with this method. You should not use detergents and it is advisable to avoid intensive cleaning of the just painted surface. This is due to the fact that a fresh painted surface on a wooden base finally hardens and acquires resistance only after two weeks after the work has been completed.
In order not to harm the coating during cleaning with wet cleaning, use a soft and light cloth. Neutral detergents are allowed to clean the coating only after a month.
You need to do this with a sponge or any soft cloth. Then you need to diligently wash with clean water the entire painted wooden surface.
After completing all work, the tools that were used during painting should be cleaned with alcohol solutions so that particles of paintwork do not settle on them.
