- (一) Construction site:
- (1) We suggest that the indoor temperature should not be lower than 15℃ when working.
- (2) If the indoor temperature is too high, pl remember to open the doors and windows to make air moving straightway.
- (3) If the indoor temperature is too low, pl pay attention to keep warm. If the condition is available for you, pl take measurements for heating to rise the indoor temperature, to accelerate the wall surface drying completely.
- (4) If the humidity is too high, necessary measurements should be taken such as anti-mildew, anti-moisture, and taking off damp etc.
- (二) Builders:
- (1) Before working, you need to read the Construction Instruction for “Ding” fiberglass wallcovering very carefully, and do well as the Instruction required.
- (2) Pl make good preparation of a whole set of tools, and use them normatively as introduced in the Instruction.
- (3) For the whole process for hanging wallcovering, the following operation can be carried on only in the condition that the previous piece of wallcovering has been parched. ?
- (4) All tools could be opened only before starting working, and should be packed as originally when finishing.
- (三) Tools:
All tools for hanging “DING” fiberglass wallcovering as follows:
(1) Straight edge (2) Pencil (3) Knife (4) Grafter (5) Trowel (6) Glue brush (7) Paintbrush (8) Radiator roller (9) Angled brush
(10) Pressing roller (11) Pressing grafter (12) Cutter trowel
- (四) How to deal with the different wall surface before hanging wallcovering?
- (1) For those wall surfaces difficult for hanging and leaning such as surfaces with wallpaper, in wooden, paint as well as old oil paint, which are ought to be removed and smoothed before hanging wallcovering.
- (2) Smoothing is required in advance for surfaces with many holes.
- (3) For plaster and campo wall surfaces, all bristles on their surfaces should be removed and smoothed before hanging wallcovering. If you repaint the wall surface before hanging, that does work as well.
- (4) For wall surfaces with metal or tile, you need to coat with antirust paint or fill with apertures of tiles before hanging wallcovering.
- (五) Usage of fiberglass wallcovering: (each picture is corresponding to a step)
1. Cut the wallcovering with an allowance of 8cm to 10cm according to the required length.
2. Use special wallcovering adhesive. The width of glue area should be wider around 10cm than two sides of wallcovering.
3. Hang the wallcovering on the wall surface very lightly with a grafter.
4. Make a good joint of the neighboring patterns.
5. Press the joint of wallcovering evenly with a pressing grafter.
6. Press other parts of wallcovering evenly with a pressing roller.
7. Cut off the superfluous wall cloth of two sides with a cutter trowel.
8. Cut off the superfluous wall cloth of top and bottom sides with a cutter trowel.
9. Coat the wallcovering the color dope with a paintbrush.
(六) Aids for special cases:
Why the paint cracks? How to remedy it?
At the construction site, the paint may crack if the working site condition doesn’t meet requirements.
- (1) Why the paint cracks?
- a) Due to using the working tolls incorrectly, the glue or paint is mixed and rolled unequally, with some parts thinner or thicker.
- b) The paint is coated on the surface without completely dried primary glue.
- c) The paint is dried at a temperature of less 15℃, what’s more, there the cold wind straightly blows wall surface. Therefore, if the temperature is too low, pay more attention to heat preservation and ventilation as well as prolonging the time suitably for drying completely.
- d) There’s dust on wallcovering surface.
- e) The amount of color paste of paint is excessive, even over 20%. Therefore it is necessary to choose the correct base coating to mixing colors.
- (2) The remedy for cracking:
- a) When mending, the suitable working temperature should be no less than 15℃, so both a well ventilated environment and a clean working site are required.
- b) Use a piece of sandpaper to wipe off the paint on the cracking level and remove the dust from wallcovering surface with a vacuum cleaner firstly, and then roll the diluted paint on it. The dilution degree of paint and the times of coating are based on the thickness of cracking level and demands, till the cracking level is mended well completely.
- How to cover the paint in dark with paints in light color?
If you want to change a paint in very dark color into a light color on wallcovering, here’re two steps for you to work as follows.
- (1) Coat a level of white paint with water diluted firstly.
- (2) Roll the light paint with two times.
- How to hang the “Ding” fiberglass wallcovering correctly in the bathroom, toilet, kitchen, and some moist occasions?
- (1) Keep the wall surface dry and neat, with no dust.
- (2) Keep the wallcovering surface away from water as possible as you can. Here we suggest you it’s better to choose tiles and pave nose lines on wall surfaces if there’s the shower head nearby.
- (3 )During the whole process for hanging the wallcovering, do remember that both the glue and paint levels should be dried completely.
