Why use interior wall putty for indoor decoration?
The application of interior wall putty is very important. Before painting the walls, a smooth and tidy wall surface is needed. At this time, interior wall putty can serve this purpose. Although it is a filler, with it, the final effect of the wall can be better.
1. Characteristics of interior wall putty
1. Although the price of interior wall putty on the market is higher than that of ordinary putty, the decorative effect and durability of the product after application are far beyond what ordinary putty can achieve. The main point is that after applying interior wall putty, it can save two to three times or even more costs of renovation putty.
2. The fineness and density of moisture-resistant interior wall putty give it strong adhesion, enhancing the bonding strength. This allows the wall to use 25-30% less material compared to walls using ordinary putty in terms of adhesive strength and coverage, while also providing certain elasticity and good breathability.
3. After moisture exposure, interior wall putty will not delaminate. The compressive strength of the new product is higher than that of ordinary putty, providing strong waterproofing. At the same time, during daily use, the coating will not have issues like hollowing, cracking, peeling, or falling off.
4. Interior wall putty is an energy-saving material that does not cause any pollution to indoor air quality. If the wall gets dirty, it can be directly washed or painted with interior wall paint, improving the performance and lifespan of the coating.
5. Ordinary putty has poor waterproofing, so during subsequent renovations, the putty must be removed along with the original coating, which not only increases costs but also leads to resource waste and environmental issues. Using interior wall putty can solve this problem permanently; when repainting the interior walls, there is no need to remove the wall surface, just apply the interior wall paint directly.
6. Applying interior wall putty to the wall results in a soft, smooth touch, a gentle experience, and good layering. After finishing, it feels very comfortable to the touch.
Can tiles be applied on top of interior wall putty?
Generally, putty applied on the wall cannot have tiles directly adhered to it. If tiles are applied on the putty surface for a long time, they may flake off. It usually requires sanding and polishing to make it smooth before applying tiles.
Putty is a type of building material, with light calcium powder as its main component. The fineness of ordinary putty is above 90, with a particle size above 330.
Putty is used for wall repair and leveling the ground, laying a solid foundation for the next step of decoration (painting or wallpapering). Putty is divided into interior and exterior types. Exterior wall putty must withstand wind and sunlight, so it has greater adhesion and strength, but its environmental index is slightly lower. Interior wall putty has good comprehensive indicators, is safe and healthy, and is not used externally on walls. Ordinary putty is made from gypsum or epoxy mortar, which makes the surface not smooth and easy to bond firmly. However, during construction, a layer of waterproof putty should also be applied to seal the base work while enhancing the wall's adhesion, allowing the putty to better adhere to the surface.
