No matter how high-quality and expensive parquet, sooner or later it will require restoration. Mandatory item of restoration work - polishing of parquet using special tools and electrical equipment in order to accelerate the process and withdraw it to a higher professional level.

Is it possible to grind outdoor wood coating with your own hands, how to do it so as not to damage the floor, where to start and what work is planning at the final stage? About this below.

Grinding is sooner or later the necessary and very small process for each parquet

There are several reasons affecting the loss of presentable external view and partially functionality of parquet. Most often is the wrong installation, errors in the process of operation and care, an increased level of load on the floor and other. It is necessary to determine that repair, grinding and polishing parquet floor is needed enough for the following signs:

• the coating is littered with small scratches, covered with cracks - traces of furniture, animal claws, heels, etc.;
• between individual elements covers appeared gaps;
• varnish lost glitter and gloss;
• hinders creak when pressing;
• when attacking, a deaf sound is clearly heard - a sign of the voids formed under the floor.

These are the main signs that indicate the need for work first on the repair of the parquet floor, and followed by them and grinding to return to it aesthetic species.

Do not launch a parquet to such a state when it will be replaced by the only choice.

When is the grinding - taboo?

The prohibition of restoration work implying grinding or even cyclishing surface is superimposed in certain cases after evaluating the state of the old parquet. Most often to conduct this kind of repair and restoration work, if:

• the gaps between the fascinated dies are more than 5 mm, or the entire coating is a grid of dry slats;
• nabuch parquet floor as a result of long-term contact with water;
• the places of elevated loads were extended so much that there were noticeable height differences;
• serious potholes and irregularities were formed;
• paul mocca due to improperly arranged layer of waterproofing;
• wood is amazed by a bugger;
• indoors have traces of mold and fungus.

The above problems are indeed an obstacle to parquet grinding, but only temporary. After eliminating large defects with partial repair that require that sections of the floor, one can move to the restoration of its appearance with grinding equipment, both manual and electrical.

Before grinding, make sure that the parquet is still in that condition when it can still be grinding

Set of tools for pure grinding

High-quality parquet grinding with their own hands means preparations for the process, regardless of the choice of a method of working - manual or machine. If the option with rent special equipment It is excluded, despite his justification in all senses, it is worth paying attention to a simple and accessible to each tool - a manual citner. This plate with a curved and sharpened edge, for convenience equipped with a plastic or wooden handle.

Such a primitive tool allows you to simply remove the top layer of old varnish from the parquet. Minus manual cycle - in labor consideration and duration of work. Physically remove the lacquer in such a way difficult, but maybe. Moreover, the manual cycle will allow you to handle the hard-to-reach places of the floor without special equipment. It can be attributed to the benefits of it and the complete absence of dust, as a rather thick layer of wood is removed in the process.

Manual cycle - good tool and come in handy in the farm not only for carpet processing

Even more affordable option To work with parquet during grinding work - sandpaper. For convenience, it is attached to the sole of shoes, intensively pushing the coating. The method is effective, but also, as in the case of manual cycles, time consuming and long.

Given the features of the above floor processing options, it is worth noting that the grinding of the old parquet will be better and faster using special equipment. How do they use and what to pay attention to? Below useful recommendations.

The process of restoring parquet floor is the initial repair with the elimination of defects, after which the so-called primary one will follow - rough grinding. To handle the coating, it is necessary to prepare the room and equipment to work. For this, the room is released from furniture items if possible, and those that remain are covered with a protective film.

Parquets are released from screws and nails, carefully wash, wipe off with dry rags, mask the heads of fastening elements in a tree for several centimeters. At the next stage, the plinth is dismantled and the features of the operation of the grinding apparatus, analyzing the power and compliance of equipment indicators of rosettes in the room.

It is necessary to know that grinding machines work too loud to afford not to use noise headphones. Also to protect the mucous membranes it is worth using a respirator against parquet dust. It will not hurt to apply and gloves to protect hands during long work By grinding.

When working without headphones, it is quite possible to partially clutch for a long time.

Stages of grinding work - Step-by-step instructions

Start work with eliminating the most notable defects. To do this, you can also use a flat-grinding machine of a belt or drum type. Entry paper No. 16, 24 or 40 is fixed to the moving part of the equipment, given the state of the old floor.

At this stage, the tool is as wide as possible with a ribbon up to 20 cm for high-quality removal of contamination, coating of a varnish or oil along with a small top layer of wood (up to 5 mm).

Ribbon Type Flat Machine in Action

Trying to grind the parquet yourself, following the proven action algorithm - along the walls of the room. Given the high level of rotation of the drum machine, the coating after the work will be perfectly even smooth.

After the first strip in each of the sides, the width of the grip shifts. Strengthen the effect will allow the treatment of gender diagonally with subsequent processing in the direction of the laid parquet.

Control the load level of the drum to the surface is simply using a special screw. It is important not to overload the machine and at the same time do not go to too weak speed. In addition, it is worth not to forget about the possible voltage differences characteristic of country houses.

After, the so-called, rough grinding, the parquet floor is treated with applete-colored mixtures. To achieve the desired shade into the mass add parquet chips formed during the initial finish. Apply the mixture more convenient to all with a wide toothed spatula.

And the final stage is a delicate grinding and the subsequent polishing of the parquet with their own hands. The floor continue to bring to perfection after the complete pouring of the plated mixture, using a small abrasive to eliminate even minor defects. Ready surface Cleans with a vacuum cleaner and covered with several layers of varnish, oil or mastic - if desired.

The main thing is not to be lazy and do everything right and carefully

In conclusion, it remains to note that the grinding of the parquet is not as difficult and not so long, if you find the equipment really suitable for work and get a small master class to work with it at home.

Manual grinding with subsequent lacquer not only unjustifiably a long process, but also difficult, and most importantly - it does not guarantee a high level of quality, especially if the work will be carried out without luggage from experience and skills.

That is why, in cases where there is no confidence in the success of the case, it will be enough to study what the parquet is grinding, how long and how much work will cost in order to find a way if you do not entrust work to professionals, then at least act under their remote guide .

High-quality wooden parquet is a very durable coating. But even, despite the gentle operating conditions and self-catering, sooner or later its surface becomes. Varnish becomes dark or dim, scratches and cracks appear, the parquet darkens and what is the most offensive - unevenly, i.e. spots. And about the state of the parquet after long operation In extreme conditions, such as walking in street shoes, furniture on wheels, heavy cabinets And the bedside tables without supports, frequent flooding and much more, and do not have to talk. As a result, deep potholes and grooves from the wheels, the plates exhausted or cut by varnish, large gaps between the planks. What to do? Change outdoor coverage? Do not. With most of the problems, the grinding of the parquet will cope with its update by removing the upper layer and grinding and surface varnishing. This type of work is quite complicated, very laborious and is responsible, but it can be completely mastered independently, if you are patient. A large help is also a variety of special equipment that significantly simplifies the task.

Before you finally decide that you need exactly polishing parquet and all the works that it turns on will be enough, it is necessary to check the condition of your floor covering. There are cases when redecorating Wooden floor is useless.

It makes no sense to grind parquet if:

• Parquet Dry so much that the slots between the plates are 5 mm. All the coating is a grid of the sighted slats.
• Parquet was extended due to wetting. It is impossible to solve this problem.
• The most passable place is too extended. For example, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe room threshold in the person's passage zone there is always a height difference between the planks of the parquet. So if there are less than 5 mm left from the top of the exterior slats to the connecting tongue, the grinding is meaningless.
• There are visible deep irregularities or potholes.
• The wooden floor constantly wets from evaporation from below. In this case, it is necessary to completely remove the coating, waterproof the base and only then put the new one.
• Part of the wood is sourced by a bugger.
• The room appeared mold or rot.

The problems listed above are associated with various factors: initially incorrect laying, poor wood, non-compliance with wood laying technology and too heavy operating conditions. In all other cases, it will be quite high qualityly remove the upper packed layer of parquet, and the updated parquet will shine fresh wood.

Tools and materials for grinding parquet without dust

Parquet grinding work can be performed both manually and engineered. Last though more expensive, but less time-consuming and faster.

If finance lacks even in order to simply rent equipment, then the parquet can manual cycles. This tool is a metal plate, one edge of which is bent and sharpened that it is convenient to removed the lacquer layer, and the rest of the plate is enclosed in wooden handle. It is very difficult to work the hand cycles and hard, the hand is quickly tired, and the work in the pose "on the karachets" leads to pains in the back. Nevertheless, with the help of it you can process the entire surface, even in particular hard to reach places. When grinding the parquet with the help of a cycle, a rather large layer of wood is removed, but there is no dust, such a small one as with machine works.

In addition to manual cycles, you can use sandpaper. It is fixed to the sole of shoes and then rub the parquet with your feet. This method is also difficult to call light.

That is why grinding machines for mechanized performing such works are becoming increasingly popular.

Equipment and tools

The grinding of the old parquet consists of several stages, and for each of them is used its type of equipment.

Parquethelifing machine drum type Used to deeply cyclove any wooden floors. These machines are in demand in the Russian Federation, they are reliable, durable and relatively cheap. The most common grinding of this type is the CO-206 unit, which is produced at the Odessa factory in Ukraine. It is equipped with a comfortable drum with a width of 200 mm and a pump that collects the dust formed during the grinding process into a special dust bag. The weak venue of the Parquethelipheal CO-206 car is rubber glued to the drum. It may be damaged if the abrasive (sandpaper) is poorly clamped or the car drove on the floor-sticking nail or self-tapping screw. The total cost of such a grinding of about 1300 - 1700 cu

FlatShelifed machines There are one-piece and three-discov. Used for thin grinding of parquet floors and floors from a massive board, for grinding in front of the tinting or toning, for interlayer grinding when the surface is coated with varnish, as well as in the process of composure or for applying oil. The cost of such a machine is just fantastic, so it is not for personal use, but for professional work High Quality. FlatShelifice cars are in demand not only due to reliability, but also easy use, multifunctionality and ability to carry out practically jewelry work With parquet. The German Lagler TRIO German grinder is the most common, the cost of which is 8,500 - 10,000 cu

"Sapozhok"it is used for grinding hard-to-reach places under heating radiators, in the corners and near the edges. All machines of this type are unified, abrasive circles on velcro with a diameter of 150 mm are used, and they are also equipped with a dust collector. The most common models are SO-401 (Odessa, Ukraine), Lagler Flip and Lagler Elan (Germany).

Grinding machines are expensive pleasure, they are acquired only by companies engaged in parquet work or rental equipment. It is the last service and it is necessary to take advantage of those who want to perform work independently. If you order a grinding service in specializing in this company, then it should be aware that prices in different organizations depend on the equipment used on the equipment used. The more expensive and better, the more expensive work.

Industrial vacuum cleaner We are needed to remove all dust from the surface and parquet floor cracks. If this is not done, the opening of the lacquer will be poor quality.

In addition to all of the above, you will need scissors To cut sandwich, tools and keys To secure abrasive on the drum.

Consumables

In the process of grinding the parquet, materials will be needed, the number of which depends on the area of \u200b\u200bthe room and the complexity of the work.

1. Sandpaper. At various stages of grinding, paper of various grainability No. 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 is used. On the floor of 20 m2 leaves at least one sample, which is enough to refuel into the car. For example, for parcel-fluffy machines of drum type, you need paper No. 40 with a length of 2000 mm, and a width of 200 mm.

1. Shpaklevka For sealing slots (approximately 5 kg). It is chosen in tone wood or prepared independently of the liquid component and wood dust, which remains after grinding.
2. Varnish or oil. Parquet varnish consumption is about 5 kg per 10 m2. The most common Forbo, Resident, Loba, Flow and others.
3. Rollers and pussy For varnish.
4. Rubber spatulasto apply putty.

Consumables are better to acquire with a reserve, since the exact consumption is impossible to calculate.

Parquet grinding: cost of work and rental equipment

For comparison, consider two options: if you order a grinding service and if you do everything yourself.

If you wonder how much Parquet grinding is, it is immediately necessary to pay attention to the list of works provided. Repair organizations always indicate what is included in this or that cost. Let us give an example.

Parquet grinding services:

• Complex of work 1.: Cyclumin machine drum type, putty and varnishing in 3 layers will cost 10 - 11 cu per m2.
• Complex of works 2.: Cyclumin by the drum machine, grinding the plane grinding machine, spacing of the slots and opening with varnish in 3 layers - 12 - 13 cu per m2.
• Separately grinding machine drum type - 2.5 - 3.5 cu. per m2.
• Separately grinding the "Trio" plane oxyl tube - 2.5 - 3.5 cu. m2.
• Separately, the shtlocking of the gaps - 1.25 - 1.5 cu per m2.
• Separately matting 1.25 - 1.5 USD. m2.
• Application of an additional layer of varnish - 1.25 - 1.5 USD. Behind the layer.
• Floor coating gel - 1.25 - 1.5 cu Behind the layer.

Let's calculate how much such a list of works for 20 m2 will cost: the cyclove of the drum machine, the grinding of the plane oxyllabic, shpocking of the slots, matting, additionally 2 layers of the gel and 4 layers of varnish. We will consider at a minimum rate.

2.5x20 + 2,5x20 + 1.25x20 + 1.25x20 + 1.25x2x20 + 1.25x4x20 \u003d 150 + 50+ 100 \u003d 300 cu

Total, parquet grinding services will cost us in 300 cu For 20 m2.

Now let's consider how much it will cost us grinding parquet with your own hands:

• Rental of the parcohlolyphic machine - 18 - 20 USD per day.
• Rent of the plane grinding machine - 37.5 - 40 cu per day.
• Rent "Sapozhka" - 10 - 12 cu per day.
• Emery paper №24, 30, 36, 40 - 3.25 - 3.5 USD. per m. Raman.
• Emery paper No. 60, 80, 100 - 2,875 cu For M.Pog.
• Emery paper №120, 150 - 2.75 cu For M.Pog.
• Putty for parquet - 60 cu For 5 liters.
• Parquet varnish - 150 - 300 cu for 10 liters. Consumption 80 - 100 g per m2.
• Tinting composition for parquet - 50 cu For 1 l. Consumption 1 l to 40 m2.
• Consumables (rollers, brushes, etc.) - 60 - 80 cu.

We believe: 18 + 38 + 10 + 3.25x2 + 2,87x2 + 2,75х2 + 60 + 150 + 50 + 60 \u003d 403 USD.

As you can see, even if you handle working for one day, i.e. You will not have to overpay for rent, you still spend more with the materials, you will spend more than when ordering grinding services from professionals.

Grinding parquet with your own hands - stages of work

Performing work on grinding of the old parquet is the task of responsible and time-consuming, it is better to trust her professionals. But if you all want to do yourself, without resorting to the help of specialists, then you will need an exact instruction what to do. In addition, even if you decide to order grinding in the repair organization, knowing the sequence of work and the nuances, you can control the quality of execution.

Preparatory work before the start of grinding

The very first task you need to fulfill is to check the quality of the parquet for the subject, and whether it makes sense to grind. What criteria was described at the beginning of the article.

Before starting work, all furniture from the room is taken, the plinth is removed, and the floor is checked, whether there are a broken dice or not. Quite often, wooden plinths in old houses are pinned to the floor tightly. In order not to damage the coating, they can be left. Running parquet strips stick back. If you need to repair the parquet - elimination of creak, failures, etc. We carry out repair work.

The entire surface of the parquet floor is inspecting on the subject of protruding nails or screws. They must be dried in wood at least 2 - 3 mm so that they do not damage the abrasive. The last barcode is mine and vacuuming floor.

Only after all preparatory work You can buy materials and rent equipment. It is convenient to make a rent early in the morning. Please note that the weight of grinding machines is very large (about 70 kg), you will need at least two such heavy machines for work. Do not forget to stock type "Mask-robe" type, earboys or headphones and respirator. Despite the presence of a bag-dust collector, absolutely without dust will not work out. It will be less than without him, but it will be small and very dangerous, as it can easily get into the respiratory tract.

Deep cycle parquet

Before starting work, open all the windows and close the doors. On the drum pARKETOCHLIFICAL MACHINE SO-206 Let's refuel the gross emery paper.

№16 Used to remove old olifa or lacquer with floor.

№24 - 40 Used to remove paint and top layer of wood.

No. 60 - Universal Paper for Rough Grinding.

Most often, it takes paper No. 40. First, make the passage by the machine diagonally, from one corner to another. Then we move the machine to the wall and begin the passages along the wall and parallel to it. The width of the drum is 200 mm, so each subsequent passage should be shifted by 100 mm.

Important! The movements of the parceloclifting machine must be along the wood fibers. Only on the reversals is allowed a short-term movement across. For the artistic parquet of movement should be circular by twisting spirals.

At this stage, the corners and hard-to-reach places do not touch. Start better from the far wall and move towards the most passionate plot. Dust from the dust collector can be pissed into a plastic or polyethylene package.

Important! Raise and lower the parcohtohlipheal machine is necessary in motion so that the floor is not formed on the floor.

It is necessary to ensure that how much the drum presses on the floor of the floor. This can be adjusted by a special screw. If the machine removes too small wood layer, and the engine turnover is normal, it is necessary to increase the pressure of the drum to the floor. If, on the contrary, it removes too much - to reduce.

As needed, abrasive should be changed.

Grinding of hard-to-reach places under radiators, corners and edges

After coarse cycles, the spots of the varnish should remain in the recesses, in hard-to-reach places, near the pipes and edges. Perform a grinding of a raw surface a corner machine ("booze"). Let's refuel №40 or No. 60.

Spots of varnish in the middle of the room remove the circular movements, moving from the edges of the stain to the center.

In the corners and near the edges, remove the top layer of wood, moving the machine from the edge of the treated surface to the wall and back, pendulum movements.

Work on primary cycles is carried out until the entire surface of the floor and its shade is leveling.

Now goes to work planeCyl eye machine, good option Machine with three trio discs. Using it, it is necessary to remove all irregularities, burrs, scratches and rods, which remained after a deep cycle.

The disks dresses out the sandpaper in such a sequence: first No. 40, then No. 60, 80 and the final - 100. The plane oarsal machine is passing along the floor surface of only 3 - 4 times (each time different skins).

Every time we do two passages - in one direction and in the opposite. Discs of one grainability change as wear.

After processing the smooth surface, we proceed with the grinding of hard-to-reach all the same corner machine. Only one disk can be fed into it. First, graininess number 40, then 60 and 100. We perform grinding until the surface becomes smooth.

Putclone gaps parquet

Before sharpen the gaps in the floor, it is necessary to thoroughly spend it. Despite the dust collector, wood dust will still be. It must be deleted.

To put the parquet can be used finished spacure Under the color of the wood, and it is possible to knead the liquid component with woody dust, which remained after the cyclove and grinding, and prepare putty on their own. The main thing is to carefully read the instructions on the packaging.

Absolutely the whole surface of the floor shitthe resulting composition. To do this, use a rubber spacing spatula. The solution should be distributed evenly, filling out all the slots, both between the straps and their surface.

When the putty will dry a little, i.e. It will not be taken to hand, but will be still soft, you need to quickly perform imitation of jigs. It is performed by a shell under a metal line. Curved joints can be made by the rib of the line, slightly pressing on it. The period of gelatinization of putty depends on its composition. For example, at alkyd and loop materials, the frost begins after literally minutes after applying, so you have to hurry.

Picture grinding parquet.

To remove excess putty from the floor of the floor, it is once again polished by a flat-grinding machine with sandpaper No. 100. You can only perform this work after complete drying of the spike composition. With finishing grinding, the pressure drum is reduced, the car is moving only in the direction of wood fibers. The finishing grinding is performed until the surface becomes perfectly smooth, it is possible to check it out by hand over the floor surface.

Opening of parquet with varnish or oil

Before applying a varnish onto a parquet, it is necessary to thoroughly spend it, otherwise the lacquer will fall unevenly. And under the layer of varnish, dust or dirt clusters will be noticeable.

Parquet coating varnish is the most responsible task in grinding works. If you make it poorly, you will have to re-cycle and grind.

Varnish is applied at 3 - 4 The layer, each of them dries about 4 hours, but if you wait longer, not scary. Under parquet varnish can be applied primer or tinting composition. Varnish is applied with a roller immediately to the entire surface of the floor and it is distributed quickly according to it, as it dries very quickly. If it freezes unevenly, you will have to redo everything.

After applying the first layer of varnish and its complete drying, it is necessary to abandon the surface once again, removing the rising woody pile. We do it with a flat oral machine or a corner-glare with emery paper No. 100 or №120. Once again, the floor, walls and ceiling - suddenly small dust electrified and adhered to them.

Now we apply the remaining layers of varnish. When the last layer is driving, once again a vacuuming floor surface.

In conclusion, I would like to note that the grinding machines are very noisy, it is possible to work only during the day, with the permission of neighbors, when children do not sleep and necessarily in headphones. In addition, the power and starting current of such cars are very high. Quite often there are situations where the old wiring is not able to ensure the full operation of the grinding machine and have to use a generator or a powerful stabilizer. The severity and large vibrations of such cars do not allow them to use fragile women. The limited period of renting equipment can make you hurry and make mistakes. Consider all this may be better to contact the specialists.

Parquet Grinding: Video - Instructions

Laying parquet is the first procedure on the way to getting a beautiful floor. Additionally, you will need to spend a lot of work, such as alignment, grinding and cladding varnish.

Grinding the parquet with your own hands - in principle, a simple procedure, however, you will need to take into account a number of factors. In this article, we will consider this procedure in more detail and tell about grinding machines for parquet.

Difference of grinding from cycle

Cyclical machine removes chips

Today there are quite a lot of equipment and tools for surface treatment. To begin with, it is necessary to identify the main differences from grinding.

Cyclical - manual grinding parquet cycles. It is used to remove chips.

Grinding, in turn, is performed using special equipment. Depending on the tool setting, it can process the surface with different parameters.

Specialists have the first stage of the flooring of the parquet is called a cyclical, and further work - Grinding.

Consider that special equipment for the cycle does not exist, just some grinding tools are sometimes used for cyclovka.

Parpet grinding technology

For grinding use small grain nozzles

Grinding procedure consists of several stages. These include:

1. Cycle. Using the sandmaker of the drum or ribbon type, the cyclishing of the parquet is performed.
2. Grinding. For this procedure, it is necessary to use grinding equipment with fine-grained nozzles. In heavy access areas, treatment is carried out with the help of angular grinders.
3. Finish grinding. With the help of flat octic equipment, a smooth surface is created.
4. Treatment with varnish and antiseptic.

Types of grinding machines

What are parquet polished? The types of grinding equipment there are quite a lot. They are distinguished by design, characteristics and respectively. Next, we will consider each type of grinding in more detail, we define the strengths and weaknesses of the tool.

Drum-type grinders

Machine for grinding the drum type parquet is the most common solution.

With the help of it, you can perform both cyclical and grinding of the surface. The design of the product is characterized by its simplicity and reliability.

The package includes two varieties of grinding drums - centrifuge and rolling.

With the help of such equipment, it is possible to process a wooden parquet in three directions.

Ribbon machine easier to treat large surfaces

Such a tool is used to process large areas with a coarsest coating. It is simple to work with such equipment, thanks to a well-thought-out design.

The ribbon grinder can have different power, and how it is higher, the more surface can be processed without stopping.

The ribbon grinder is equipped with a special abrasive ribbon speed regulator. It can be easily dismantled and install a new one if necessary. In high-end models, an automatic tape center is used.

The chart of ribbon grinders can be seen below.

Corner grinders

Used to finish hard-to-reach places. The main element in the design is a grinding disk. New models are equipped with the following functions: regulation of the number of revolutions of the device, protection against accidental inclusion and other.

There are many manufacturers of such devices. The most famous are: Bosch, Sparky, Metabo and others.

Disk machines

Such a device is mainly used for finish finish Parquet. The three-disc and one-piece device perform finishing processing.

Models are produced different sizes And with various nozzles. This allows you to achieve good maneuverability.

Such devices can be used as a replacement for angular grinders.

Vibrating machines

This device is quite universal

Such equipment is flat oxylphous. The universality of the device will make even a rough primary finish. Work is carried out by neat movements.

Consumables for such equipment are abrasive sheets with different degrees of graininess, grid with spraying and fabric for grinding.

Eccentric machines

This device combined the principle of operation. grinding Circle and vibration machine. As a result, a high-quality tool was obtained, which will allow the ideal processing of the parquet.

Performance can be adjusted using the diameter of the vibration circle. The higher its indicator, the better the processing quality will be.

An important parameter is also speed than it is higher, the gross will be grinding. For the parquet it is better to use the minimum speed indicator. Varnish, which is covered with the surface of the parquet, it is extremely difficult to carry a heat. Detailed Lifehak on how to choose a grinder, look in this video:

Many devices are equipped with a dust bag bag, which makes it possible to significantly reduce pollution, but not to get rid of them.

Parpet grinding procedure

How to grind parquet? Parquet grinding with their own hands - a long enough procedure, which is carried out in stages.

Preparation of parquet

Before work, you will need to make furniture from the room in advance. Then an attentive inspection of the parquet for any defects is made. To ensure quality surface treatment, we recommend to catch up every barn bar.

If the sound is deaf, it means that the plank was dug up, and an empty space was formed under it. It can be easily corrected. It will be necessary to drill a small hole and with the help of a syringe to download a small amount of glue there. Then, using a heavy item, give the bar and give the substance to dry.

The surface will be needed to wash well, get rid of screws or nails. Otherwise, you risk damaging the abrasive skirt.

Tools for grinding

The smallest grain use at the end stage

For independent processing of the parquet you will need the following tools:

1. Parquet grinder with the possibility of cyclishing. The device is quite expensive, but if necessary, you can take it for a while. With the help of it, the main floor area will be processed.
2. A ribbon or angular device for working in heavy sections for access.
3. Manual cycle. Used for cyclishing of hard-to-reach areas.
4. Sandpaper. Consider that the smaller her number, the more graininess will be.
5. Putty for wood. It is useful for handling holes.
6. High quality parquet lacquer.
7. Vacuum cleaner for removing dust and other small contaminants.

For such processing, it is recommended to use tape-type equipment with skin No. 40.

With the help of such a tool, you can handle the bulk of the parquet, while the retreat from the wall should be about 10 cm.

Along the walls you need to use tape or disk machines.

Take into account that it is extremely recommended to apply manual grinders to finish the entire surface of the parquet. This can lead to the formation of irregularities.

The main purpose of this processing is to get rid of the old coating and floor alignment. Grinding the first thing is carried out along and then across.

It is extremely important to observe the skins. If it is very worn, the dark-colored stains are formed on the parquet.

To check the floor will need to use a special construction Rule. Ortheless should not reach 2 mm.

Shpaklevka

After departure, it is necessary to put a putty. The solution is selected according to the texture and color of the coating. The most common option is the acrylic mixture based on water. Metal spatula will help to treat holes.

Finish grinding

For finishing grinding, use sandpaper № 120

After the putty mixture hardens, the finishing grinding is carried out by eyeproof No. 120. At the same time, the pressure on the floor will be needed to reduce. This can be done using a special screw on the equipment.

The direction of grinding must comply with previous work. As a result, you will get a smooth parquet. Next, you need to get rid of dust, for this, a high-power vacuum cleaner is used. Detailed Recommendations for Parquet Grinding Look in this video:

All of these procedures do not take more than 6 hours.

Lacrification of treated coating

Puck the coating at warm temperatures

The varnish consists of the following procedures:

1. The primer acts as the first layer. It will significantly improve adhesion for further processing.
2. After the three layers of varnish are applied. After each layer, grinding with a special diamond grid.
3. The final coating is a glossy gel. It will help to fix the varnish on the floor.

On this, the grinding procedure is considered to be finished. As you can see, the surface is simple enough.

The main thing is to choose to choose all the necessary tools.

If you are new to construction business, it will still be better to seek help from a professional brigade.

Directly laying parquet is just the first step to get a beautiful floor covering. To achieve the desired result, you will need to hold whole line works, such as surface alignment, grinding and varnish. All these same events are done in the case of the restoration of the old parquet.

What is the difference between the grinding of parquet from the cycle

To date, manufacturers have a large selection of modern high quality tools. But before proceeding with the review of the most popular equipment, it should be clarified than, the grinding from the cyclovka differs.

Cyclical - means manual grinding of parquet cycles. With this fixture, the chips are removed.

Grinding - produced by special parquet-grinding machines. Depending on the settings and nozzles, they are grinding with different depths and with different smoothness of the surface.

But even among professional builders, the first stage of processing parquet is customary to be called a cyclical, and all subsequent grinding. But there are no special machines for cyclovka, just some models of grinding machines can also perform primary processing.

Parquet grinding technology:

• The first stage is the primary cycle. Grinding machines of drum or ribbon type produced coarse cyclishing surface of the parquet.
• The second stage is grinding. Ribbon grinding machines are used with more fine-grained abrasives. Corner grinding machines are used for hard-to-reach places.
• Third stage - finishing grinding. With the help of flat octic machines, three-disc or one-piece, parquet, an ideally smooth surface is given.
• Fourth stage. Application of varnish and protective gel.

Parquet Grinding Equipment

Grinding machines for drum type parquet

This is the most common and universal tool. They produce squalid and grinding work. The machine has a simple and reliable design. They produce it with two types of grinding drums - centrifuge and roller. Works with expendable abrasive materials of all manufacturers. With the help of drum-type grinders, the surface treatment is performed taking into account the fibrous structure of the wooden parquet and can be performed in three directions.

Ribbon grinding machines for parquet

They are used for grinding and cyclove large areas, as well as to work with gross surfaces. The machine design is provided in such a way that the center of gravity is located low, thereby creating a dense fit to the treated surface. In turn, it makes it easier to work, because it is not necessary to apply additional efforts. They are different power, but the higher it is, the greater the scope of work can be performed non-stop.

To increase the specifics of tasks, ribbon grinders are equipped with abrasive ribbon speed controllers. It is easily removed independently, and the new is not less secure. Depending on the functions of the abrasive ribbon (for cycle or for grinding), it has different widths and graininess. In some more expensive models, an automatic tape centering is already provided.

Corner grinding machines

They are intended for processing hard-to-reach places. The working element in the grinders is a grinding disk that is flat, plate, cup, polisher, etc. Modern models are equipped with a variety of useful options: maintaining a constant number of revolutions, revolutions, covered from unintentional inclusion, "soft start".

The most popular power tool manufacturers, whose quality remains at a high level for many years: "Makita", "Bosch", "Black & Decker", "Sparky", "Metabo", Atlas Copco.

Disc Machines for Grinding Parquet

Most often, the plane grinding machines are used during the finish grinding of the parquet. Three-disc and one-piece surfaces are treated in front of tinting and to cover the parquet varnish.

They produce different sizes and with a large assortment of nozzles. This is necessary for maximum maneuverability in hard-to-reach parts - near the pipes, under batteries, etc. They are a good alternative to angular grinders.

The most popular disc brands: Janser, Lagler, Bosch, Clarke, Atlas Soro.

Vibrating grinding machines

They relate to the type of flat-grinding. But due to their versatility, it can be used not only for finishing grinding, but also for coarse primary processing. They work on the principle of reciprocating movements. The greater the amplitude of the oscillations of the rectangular sole, the higher the speed. But the higher the speed, the lower the quality, so for finishing The low amplitude of movement is selected.

As consumables, rectangular abrasive sheets of different grain, mesh with spraying and grinding fabrics are used.

Eccentric grinding machines

They combine the principle of operation of the grinding wheel and the vibration machine. As a result, a high-performance tool is created. Due to the movement and vibration, it turns out great quality Parquet processing.

Performance is regulated by the diameter of the vibration circle. But than it is less, the higher the processing quality, and vice versa. It is also important and a selection of speed, higher destiny for coarse grinding. When working with parquet, you need to choose a small speed. Luck, which is covered, is very sensitive to high temperature and friction.

The leading positions among the manufacturers of eccentric and vibration machines are occupying such companies as "Bosch", "DeWalt", "Black & Decker", "Metabo", "Stomer".

Many grinding machines have a bag for collecting dust, which makes it possible to significantly reduce the amount of dust during operation, but do not exclude its appearance completely.

The most popular machines were described above. But it is not all ground parquet. In addition to them, there are some more species: deltashlyphonal, straightforward, pneumatic grinding, etc. They are universal and are used not only for wood processing, but also when working with concrete or metal surfaces.

How to polish parquet do it yourself

Parquet grinding with their own hands is made in several stages. Consider each of them in more detail.

Preparation of parquet for grinding

Before starting work from the premises, all furniture is endured. Now you can carefully consider the parquet cover completely, revealing all the shortcomings. For qualitative results, It is required to catch up every barn bar. If the sound turned out to be deaf, it means it was dug, and an emptiness was formed under it. Fix it is easy, it is enough to drill a thin hole in it, to download glue for the parquet through the construction syringe, press the cargo on top and give dry.

The surface is required to carefully launder, remove all screws, nails. IN otherwise You can quickly damage the abrasive skirt.

Parquet grinding tools and material

For grinding of parquet, it will be necessary:

• parquet-grinding machine with the possibility of cyclishing. The tool is expensive, but is available if you take it for hire. They are treated by the main area of \u200b\u200bthe parquet;
• manual tape or angular grinder for processing hard-to-reach places;
• manual cycle. It is useful for the cycle of parquet in very complex places for access;
• several emery paper tapes. The smaller the number, the larger the grain of the skins. To work with the parquet, will require № 120.80.60.40;
• wood putty, for lubing the gaps in the parquet;
• high quality parquet varnish;
• vacuum cleaner for cleaning and small-scale primary tool (screwdriver, scissors, rags, etc.)

Prepare the room, material and tools can be proceeding directly to the grinding of the parquet.

Parquet squirrel

For cycle, a ribbon-type grinder with abrasive skurt No.40 will be required. With this machine, the main area of \u200b\u200bthe parquet with an indentation from the wall is processed about 10 cm. Along the walls are used manual tape or disc grinding machines for parquet.

Tip: You can not use manual grinders for processing the entire floor area. This will lead to the formation of pits and other irregularities.

The purpose of this stage of work is to remove the old lacquer coating and align the surface of the parquet. Grinding is performed first along the room, and then across. It is especially important to closely monitor the state of the abrasive skirt. Having strongly worn out she burns parquet, leaving dark spots on it. For checking outfit gear, a three-meter rule is used. The irregularities under it should not exceed 2 mm.

After the coarse cycle on the floor, scratches always remain and jar, which is the norm. They are removed by the following grinding with skins No. 60, and then No. 80. Works are also produced - along and across. The exception is when the parquet is laid parallel to the walls. In this case, it is grinding only along the laying line. And when laying a Christmas tree - diagonally. At this stage of irregularity, parquet should not exceed 1 mm.

Packed Parquet.

When parquet is polished with a skin number 80, it is put off. The putty for these works is selected by texture and color similar to wood. An acrylic putty is used on a water basis or mix the sawdust remaining when cyclile, with parquet varnish. With the help of a metal spatula, the gaps between the straps are filled with a mixture.

Finish grinding parquet

After the putty hardens, the parquet is grossing the finish abrasive skurt №120. It will be necessary to weaken the pressure of the grinders to the floor using a special adjusting screw, which are equipped with all modern models.

The direction of grinding, exactly the same as in the previous stages of work. As a result, the parquet should be perfectly smooth, which is quite simple to check by spending on it. Now it is important to very carefully remove all the dust with a powerful vacuum cleaner.

On average, all these grinding processes parquet occupy about 6 hours.

Lacrification of polished parquet

Before the start of the varnodes, all windows are closed in the room to avoid the occurrence of drafts. The optimal temperature for work is 22-24 degrees.

Parquet parquet in several stages:

• primer is applied as the first layer;
• then three layers of varnish are applied alternately. Between each layer, grinding with a diamond mesh P-220;
• as an finishing coating, a glossy gel is used to fix varnish.

About how to grind parquet, in more detail, is shown on the video.

How to choose parquet varnish

Parquet varnishes are separated by the degree of gloss and wear resistance.

Mattiness depends on the number of passive aggregate in the composition of varnish. Changing the proportions, make glossy, semi-wave and matte varnishes. But this filler settles at the bottom, so before applying the varnish is thoroughly mixed.

Waxability of the varnish is selected based on the functionality of the room in which the parquet is laid. For the house, lacquers are suitable with low or medium stability, for more crowded places are chosen with increased abrasion resistance.

Types of varnishes:

• Polyurethane varnishes. They are made on the basis of solvents, acrylic or urethane. These pluses include high elasticity, heat resistance, good adhesion qualities and ultraviolet resistance. Perfectly copble with high loads, not afraid of household chemicals and high humidity. The minus is that the polyurethane varnish gluits the planks. And when moisture getting into the time of varnishing, it begins to foam.

• Water soluble varnishes. This is a pretty new product. It solidifies after evaporation of water, forming a film. They practically do not distinguish harmful chemicals, and in strength are not inferior to other types of varnishes. Suitable for premises with a permanent positive temperature. The most wear-resistant is acrylic-polyurethane varnish, and the acrylic varnish will be required to update periodically.

• Oil resin lacquers. These are urethanalkide and alkyd varnishes made from linen or wood oil, which allows them to be deeply furnished in the wood. They do not glue the planks of the parquet, and the coating is obtained non-slip. But they are toxic and dry long.
• Acid-curable varnishes. They are made on the basis of directly varnish and the hardener. It has the highest wear-resistant qualities, undemanding to temperature and humidity. The disadvantages serve as strong smell and strong gluing planks.

Grinding parquet without dust

The only option to update old parquet - It is to produce a cyclical, shock the slit, polish and cover with varnish. But many parquet floors owners are hurrying to return to him former beauty. And the guilt of this perspective of dusty and noisy work. Indeed, wood dust, which is formed when removing the old coating, penetrates everywhere and enamel into furniture and curtains.

But you can perform all these works and without dust. Most modern models Parquet-grinding machines are equipped with dust collectors. If adding to this and explicit in the area of \u200b\u200bdrafts, then the dust will not be afraid. For additional protection, a static film is used, which is covered by the walls of the room in which work is made.

Grinders with powerful dust collectors on which high-quality filters are installed are very expensive and only available. professional builders. If there is confidence in your abilities, you can contact one of the firms and take the tool for rent. It is especially important to use such machines for processing parquets from valuable breeds Woods - wenge or walnut. This is due to the fact that dust data of the tree breeds has coloring elements. Therefore, when it sedes her on the furniture or walls, it can paint them, but it will be practically impossible to cleaned them.

Of course, to completely collect dust during the work of the grinder will not be able, but still a large part of it is settled in dust collectors. So, they are great for the restoration of the old parquet in the already decorations.

Parquet is a favorite coating of millions of people around the world. Proper polishing and harmonious varnish Paul will give a great grace to the interior and makes rejoice in the eyes with each entrance to the hall.

What it is?

A parquet board is a type of wood coating, the laying technology of which is based on gluing several slats from wood material. Grinding, or Parquet Cylishing - it is polished and floor alignment using various branded and technical means. It is achieved through the friction force.

It is worth remembering that for outdoor coatings It will take a special coloring material. As for the putty material, it differs from the construction putty.

The article will consider its main types.

When applied?

Parquet floor, especially if it was made of not very qualitative material, needs a periodic update. If the room is constantly exploited, such works can be repeated several times a year. These include the recovery of parquet, the removal and replacement of the parquet board, renewing the plinths, eliminate holes.

If the floor creaks, do not tolerate painful sounds. As a rule, the reasons for such a syringe is sailing parquet boards, incorrect base (parquet substrate), incorrectly laid parquet.

One more frame problem Is Parquet Pulling. Its main causes - parquet wear, artificial heating of gender, poor-quality material, strong mechanical effects from shocks or long-term pressure of the furniture legs.

To restore the floor itself, it is not necessary to have a lot of experience in the sealing of a swollen parquet board. Of course, to make a good repair well or completely update the plot, it is desirable to have experience in such a business. It would be nice to find a familiar master who will help you withdraw or upgrade the coating.

Restoration of the floor is the usual desire to increase the conditions of comfort.

Features of technology

The process of restoration of the floor requires a certain accuracy. After all, hasty and lack of instructions can lead to loss of time and money. Restoration technology is selected depending on the problem, and in some cases the owner budget.

If we are talking about not a correctly selected or laid substrate, you will need to remove the parquet coating. As for these two factors - they are possible due to the non-professionalism of the masters or with independent rapid montage. Failure to comply with rules, as a rule, leads to such consequences.

In the absence of experience, you need to consult with a specialist in the store.If possible, it is advisable to turn to a good master. The instruction should be strictly executed. Saving 30-40 minutes, it will be possible to wake your close creak or ahead of time to throw out the board in the trash can.

The substrate is also a fundamental value at parquet. It serves as a shock absorber, which softens the pressure of wood on the tubercles and flaws on the surface of the screed. Permanent pressure will quickly lead to a screen, wear and, as a result, to the death of your coverage. We must not forget about the neighbors who live below. It is the substrate that is a sound insulator. But you should not hurry with her choice. Consultants often speak incorrect information to make it possible to implement the goods. The statement of the seller that the thicker the substrate is, the higher the quality of your flooring, does not carry adequate information, as well as the fact that the substrate can brighten up all ties.

Contrary to the opinion of many consultants, the rolled substrate is considered better than the leaf counterpart.

The base should be even relative to the flooring. Then the substrate with a thickness of 2-3 mm will have to be just right. It must be remembered that the substrate from any material repeats all surface defects. For surface alignment, various sheets are used, many types of plywood and various mixtures.

The type of substrate is chosen at the discretion of the owner. They differ in environmental friendliness, quality and resistance to external factors. In any case, advise with masters for the maximum technique of your repair.

Experts believe that in the two band raven meters There should be no deviation from the horizontal more than 2 mm. Otherwise, the board will start to fall.

The next reason can be a small amount of fasteners or their improper arrangement on the area of \u200b\u200bthe plated parquet. Despite the observance of many instructions, some arrogant "masters" are trying to make their adjustments. Fasteners should be in the species defined places, their number should not be reduced at the discretion of the owner, if he does not have experience in finishing the floors.

Frequent cause of restoration need parquet coating Is detachment of the upper parts of the parquet, bloating. To eliminate them, you need to identify "patients" places, designate them with a marker, drill holes and glue the separated layers.

The next defect is holes in the floor, scratches, dents. The causes are becoming strong Mechanical impacts, wear and drying of parquet, frequent operation. As a rule, they are poured by a cement-sand or quick-drying mixture. If with "drying" the distance between the dies is greater than 0.5 mm, it is customary to talk about the full wear of the parquet. Grinding here will not help. And the sealing can take a lot of time and strength and will not return to your floor of the initial look.

When working with your own hands you will need gloves, since construction solutions If you get irritated the skin.

It is necessary to prepare a finishing blade, which eliminate local damage. Perhaps this update will help get rid of the creaking sex.

Materials and tools

Having understood with the cause of the problem, you can proceed to the preparation of material and tools. Before repairing well weigh your material opportunities. Often, the started thing does not reach the end due to the excessive emotionality of the owners. Paul, filled with dust and tools, nothing is better than creaking parquet. You need to learn the rates in different stores, they can also vary greatly.

Not everyone understands than grinding differs from cycle. Cyclic - this is a kind of breaking the surface to compare with irregularities. Grinding - in fact, the same cycloying, only instead of the car uses abrasive materials.

It also needs to be understood what abrasive material is. This is a surface that has a cuther-grung surface. It is intended for manual floor alignment. In our case, we can use it to eliminate local damage or irregularities. The most famous of them is sandpaper. If we are talking about "capital" grinding, then the grinding machine will need. Otherwise you have to crawl. This is also quite an adequate way, But takes away too much time.

There are huge many different grinding machines. Are used different materials For nozzle. The area of \u200b\u200btheir surface may differ. There are grinders that use the dust suction feature. Some builders even connect such devices to a special vacuum cleaner.

Before grinding the floor, you need to consult with the master, pointing it to the floor area, the material, the last time of updating the parquet board. The grinding machine can be purchased at the store tools, construction equipment, a common construction store.

Of course, such a decision may not be the most economical option. Therefore, it is better to rent the necessary apparatus.One excess call can save not one hundred, and perhaps even one thousand rubles. Often, large construction stores offer Bulgarian rental and various kinds of equipment. It is possible that this apparatus can be found there.

We are also needed and material for putty. They are eliminated by slots and cuts on the floor. Its must necessarily match the color of the floor. You need to be vigilant when choosing a material. Even a consistency can play an important role. After some time of application, it can change the color strongly.

Need to be careful not to sleep the floor used solutions. For its protection when working with grinding, special varnishes, pastes or gels are used. Based epoxy resin A special technology has been developed for "epoxy or polymer floor." Based on the resin, a special paste is made, which subsequently extends to the surface evenly and gives the floor gorgeous evenness and shine.

If necessary, paint is needed to decide on varnishes or other painting materials. It is also possible to make a pulling on the basis of mixing a few tones.

Step by step instructions

When working in commercial or state premises should not be free in their ideas. Often when working in such places special requirements. Children's game will have more stringent demands than a regular corridor for enterprise clients. In some rooms are not allowed wooden coatings Or too slippery floor. GOST requirements can leave your efforts without approval.

The restoration material should be bought in a large store or shop with a good reputation. Construction mixes may have a surrogate composition. Fake materials may have tremendous toxicity and be unsuitable for operation.

So at home to make something or another work, it is necessary to learn how to explore the instruction as carefully. As mentioned, it is very desirable to work with a man who has experience in recovering parquet. If there is no wizard on the finish, you can attract a builder working in another direction or even a furniture maker. They are also very well versed in building materials, solutions, know how to work with the equipment.

Before the start of grinding you need to remove the old varnish. To do this, a sponge moistened in White-Spirit is useful. When working with grinding, the floor is covered by protecting varnishes. Parquet material and some other components affect the selection of the parameters of the device.

After that, abrasive (emery material) is refilled in the machine. The first pass is made by the most rude abrasive NO40. First, the machine is kept diagonally along the laying of boards. Working with coarser-grained abrasives, it is extremely recommended to be strongly pressed. Paper is changing as wear.

Upon passage of each next layer, the abrasive is even smaller, and the grinders are shifted by 50% of the drum width. Movement along the fibers begins with the second time. The floors in the base of which include boards, polished in the direction of fibers. At each stage of work, you need to follow the cable. In no case cannot be allowed to get it under the drum.

If you wish to make a grinding in the four stages of the nozzle from the abrasive are taken in the following order: begin with NO40, then NO60, Next, NO80, ultimately NO100 (NO120). When grinding in three stages Start with NO40, then NO80 and ends NO120. To grind high quality and evenly, the machine must move not quickly. It is forbidden to keep the included grinders over the floor without movement. Otherwise, you can remove the extra material.

Before completing the operation of the slot between the rolls is covered. This is done by the pastes of the appropriate shade or special mixtures. After the putty, you must wait for their drying.

The surface of the unacceptable places is grouped intended for this machine "boot". As a rule, these are places in the corners and under the pipes.

After all the events spent, with the help of a vacuum cleaner you need to extort the floor. The first varnishing layer is applied. For a good coating, the varnish is applied in three layers. When the last layer dries out, the floors are washed by ordinary soap means to eliminate stickiness. Wash needed warm water.

You need to be careful in your work and have an appropriate mood. Neackless removal upper layers Parquet may entail trouble. Perhaps it will not spoil the repair, but partially can distort the overall picture of the interior.

Preparation of coating

Before grinding, the parquet is maintained. The surface of the apartment is completely exempt from furniture, things, and the floors are thoroughly clean. Parquet condition is fully checked. Every bar need to catch up. The deaf sound appearing when attractive testifies to the emptiness appeared in the floor. As a rule, this is due to the rejunction of the bar from the base and the formation of emptiness under it. This kind of bar must be sealing.

Parquet glue is used to eliminate cracks. It is poured with the help of a special construction syringe. You need to give a load on the parquet and leave time for drying. As a rule, it is done by a trembling item.

If there are dried drops from adhesive materials, paints, or other hardware, paints or other hardware, it is necessary to arm a scraper. Carnations or screws sticking out of the floor are also defined.

Cyclevka

Today, cycle and grinding are almost synonymous. But if you deepen in the exact meaning of these concepts and draw the border, it turns out that the cycle process is slightly different from grinding.

A distinctive feature of the cycloxy process is that when working in this way, abrasive materials are not used. Often this is done manually.

The word "cyclic" received its name from a special device "Cycle". This is a manual tool for cycloxy, which scraps, but does not harm wood coating. Its design is very simple - the sharpened plate made of metal, fixed in the handle. Work can be carried out in hard-to-reach places. This process takes a lot of time. Therefore, you need to carefully weighed your capabilities - to evaluate your budget, the amount of work and find the most rational option.

As already mentioned, all nails, and various items must be completely driven into the floor or removed it. The cycle begins from the angle of the room. Next movements are made according to the principle of snake.

First remove the topmost layer. It is the most dirty, its presence is unacceptable to work with the putty. After that, proceed to the processing of seams and holes. Plotchevka should be carried out carefully.

The color of the putty should be combined with the color of the coating. It is possible to continue cyclish in the achievement of complete drying.

Shpaklevka

Application of this kind of materials can become good way Restoration floor. It helps restore the surface and align it. When breeding a solution for a putty, you need to adhere to the instruction. Failure to comply with the proportions or adding its ingredients can lead to a change in the properties of the solution. Money thrown into the wind, spoiled parquet, lost time, can become a ruble for such amateurness.

Materials for putty can be purchased in a conventional construction store. It is important not to forget about the blades, gloves, scrapers and other possible tools.

To independently close the cracks, it is not necessary to have a huge experience, but it is better to consult with a finishing master or construction. He will show how to splash, will give recommendations for kneading the solution.

It is worth remembering that the plaque for the parquet differs from the construction putty. From the quality, applying and selection of the material depends the period that your parquet will last. As a rule, the shplanke has a powdered view or made in the form of a paste.

It happens the following types:

• Based on solvent. With such a putty easy to work. Drying occurs in a short time. Its main component are wooden chips. This allows them to be combined with all tree rocks.
• Acrylic mixtures do not emit toxins, are environmentally friendly, often used for grouting seams.

• Oil putty in composition have oil, water and all known since childhood chalk. Have very long term The shelf life, but due to the oil consistency, it dry after applying to the floor and slow down the speed of work.
• Polymer mixtures are environmentally friendly. Frequently used in places with high sanitary requirements. Do not have electrostatic properties, so dust do not attract.

Finishing work

After the end of work, the room is given in full order. This is usually done with a vacuum cleaner.

Before applying varnish, the floors wipe with a special cloth. The fabric is recommended to soak in a solvent.
