What water -based paint to choose?
The choice of water -based paint is not an easy task, especially when the store has a whole rack of multi -colored cans in the store. After all, each paint has its own characteristics that affect the final result and, of course, on your budget. Do not worry, it’s easy to figure it out! Let's analyze the main selection criteria.
1. Purpose and surface type:
Different paints are suitable for different rooms and surfaces. If you paint the walls in the children's room, pay attention to the paint with increased resistance to moisture and mechanical damage. For a kitchen or bathroom, it is better to choose waterproof paint so that it serves for a long time and easily wash. And for walls in the bedroom, a more calm, breathing paint is suitable if you want to create a cozy atmosphere. Do not forget about the type of surface: for plastered walls, one paint is suitable, and for drywall, the other is suitable. Manufacturers often indicate on the package for which surfaces this or that paint is intended.
2. Shade and texture:
The choice of color is a matter of taste. But there are nuances here. Remember the size of the room and the general style of the interior. Bright colors can visually make the room less, and pastel colors can be more spacious. Do not forget about the texture. If you want to create a smooth surface, choose paint with a glossy or semi -glossy effect. For a more warm and cozy option, it is better to choose matte. Look at the samples, perhaps even ask to bring several options to your interior to evaluate how it will look.
3. Properties and manufacturer:
It is important to consider such parameters as vapor permeability, drying speed and resistance to pollution. For example, if you live in a wet climate, then choose paint with good vapor permeability. For rooms where there are many children, it is better to choose a paint with good washing ability. And do not forget about the manufacturer. Famous brands usually offer a quality product and guarantee durability. Of course, the price of paint also plays a role, but do not save on quality. It is better to choose the average price category, which is suitable for ordinary home conditions, and will correspond to all the necessary characteristics. If you have any special requirements, check them with sellers.
Choose paint, taking into account your needs and preferences, and your repair will become easy and pleasant!
