Ecology is the first topic of discussion today. Advanced owners and housewives believe that the environmentally friendly in the house should be not only furniture, but also materials such as wallpaper.

Fashionable and environmentally friendly are, for example, cork decorative wallpaper on the wall, but there is a more functional and no less stylish material.

What you need to know about cullet

We are used to one type of wallpaper - paper and know little about the existence of other types. Moreover, we do not know the features of other materials for interior wall decoration.

So, there are different wallpapers for the walls:

  • Cork Wallpaper.
  • Cullets.
  • Wallpaper made of bamboo.
  • Papers.
  • Fabrics and leather.

Let's consider in more detail:

  • For example, cork wallpaper for walls keeps heat well and isolates noises.
  • Cullets are durable.
  • Bamboo create special comfort and do not accumulate saws.
  • Tissue does not emit harmful substances.

You can choose the ones that you like best, but it is better to take into account the experience of other people and even countries. In Europe, the most profitable and environmentally friendly recognized glass.

Why fiberglass

Such material is quite functional and looks good in any interior. Unlike other types, cullets are easier to use and they will last longer, but there are also drawbacks.

Benefits:

  • Moisture resistant.
  • Less fungus in the house.
  • Easier to wash.
  • Do not burn.
  • It’s hard to scratch.
  • Serve up to 30 years.
  • Perhaps up to 15 repaints.

Disadvantages:

  • It’s harder to paint.
  • Harder to shoot.
  • More expensive than other species (excluding skin).

Choose for reasons of economy. The price of fiberglass, of course, is higher than that of other types of material, but it is justified. For any adult, it’s obvious: long-lasting wallpapers will still cost less than a few purchases of short-lived materials.

At any moisture level, nothing will happen to the cullet. Here are the reasons to opt for this material.

How to glue wallpaper

You can do glass do it yourself. This is very simple and allows you to save. A few simple rules and you are no worse than any painter!

Step-by-step instruction:

Prepare the surface.
Prepare the surface.
The wall should be clean, putty, small cracks can not be putty, as fiberglass will hide and even them. It is necessary to thoroughly clean the surface with a brush.

Measurements.
Measurements.
Measure the height of the wall and cut from the roll 5-10 cm more than the height of the wall.

We measure the wallpaper.

Measure the cutoff width of the wallpaper and mark it on the wall, starting from the corner. The area on the wall should be less than the length of the wallpaper by 5 cm.

Apply glue.
Apply glue.
Apply glue with a flat brush to the designated area on the wall. For glass, you need a decent layer of glue. It is better to use a special mixture.

Getting to pasting.
Getting to pasting.
Glue the cut onto freshly applied glue, observing the perimeter of the plot. You need to start from above, aligning the fiber with a wallpaper spatula in the direction from the center to the periphery.

Gently cut the excess pieces of fiber in the corner, above and below with a knife.

Then again, the width of the section on the wall is indicated, and glue is applied. The second section is glued 3-5 cm over the first and is leveled with a spatula.

Next, you will need the longest ruler you have:

  • The line is applied exactly in the middle of the seam, where a double layer of fiberglass has formed.
  • Pull the knife straight along the ruler, along the entire length of the joint. First, remove the cut piece of the upper layer of the canvas, then pry the bottom piece and remove it in the same way.
  • Thus, you get a perfectly even joint of two cuts of the canvas, which must be aligned with a wallpaper trowel.
  • Further, the entire wall or the area that is required is glued.

Tip. If there is a picture on the wallpaper, make sure that the pattern matches the joints of the paintings.

  • Next, you need to wait 12, and preferably 24 hours, to dry the glue.

The next step is to re-putty. The putty layer should be such as to fill all the pores, but no more!

At the end

Fiberglass is a rather specific type of material and in its structure has fibers.
Fiberglass is a rather specific type of material and in its structure has fibers.

During staining, these villi can detach and settle on the surface around. Moreover, it is quite difficult to dye glass fiber, since this material has many pores, and several layers of paint are required.

Note. Therefore, some painters advises after sticking to putty on wallpaper. This will fill the pores and even out the structure. This process simplifies further painting and reduces the settling of the villi on the body.

We turn to painting:

  • Paints for cullets often need to be diluted with water, so we dilute the paint and apply it with a roller on the wall.
  • If one layer was not enough for a saturated color, wait until the paint dries, and apply another layer.
