How and why we use decorative paint for concrete floor

In: DIY Projects On: duminică, septembrie 13, 2015 Comment: 65 Hit: 76443
      Often we are tempted to seek a solution that is fast and cost effective to cover the floor of the garage, equipment room, basement, workshop, or even concrete courtyard area. However, cheap or not, most materials (including tiles, parquet, wood floors) imply a corresponding workmanship that involves a specialized company, which significantly increases both costs and development time.

      But for such areas there is a simpler solution: paint for concrete. It’s a technical solution that DIY enthusiasts can use to realize projects easily, eliminating labor costs, because the application does not require complex operations or highly specialized tools. It’s a solution we recommend especially because you will be able to apply it alone, without any help from an interior design company.

      Moreover, in this type of rooms are enough chances to drop tools or other heavy objects on the floor and contact with tiles or wood floor will result in cracks that you can fix only by replacing the respective tile. So again you’ll have the costs of labor, materials and time consumption. Another advantage of concrete floor paint finishes: retouching is done in minutes by applying over the cracked surface with a simple brush.

      For this DIY project you only need Paint Oskar for Concrete, Thinner Nitro, a paint roller and a paint tray.

      But for your comfort, you can choose to use a paint roller extension. Of course it’s not just about comfort, with the extension you will become more efficient and you will finish to paint more quickly, so it is worth doing this minimal investment.

      After thoroughly clean the floor of dust and other impurities, you will have to apply 2 o3 layers (depending on how smooth is the floor) of Paint Oskar for Concrete  and you will obtain a floor decorated simply and discreetly, an area with anti-slip effect, which is important especially in garages, technical rooms and workshops.

      A bold approach is painting concrete floor even in residential spaces, as you can see in the images below.  

      Look how a white paint on the floor can add brightness to a room, even if it is located in the basement:

      Or more so when that room benefits from many windows:

      The bathroom is another room that can get an original look when the floor is decorated with paint, whose shades of gray will give extra style and also will emphasize the minimalist look of the room.

      But concrete paint easily finds applications not only in technical areas as basements, but also in residential areas classically styled, black painted floors will accommodate unexpectedly well:

      In fact, you can also easily integrate floors finished with white paint in classic designs:

      And the gray painted concrete seems to have found its place mainly in the interiors decorated in modern style:

      Oskar Concrete Paint benefits from anti-slip effect that allows it to finish including stairs, giving decorative valences even to concrete steps with rough surfaces.

      Remaining at the stairs, whether indoors or outdoors, it must be said that only with a brush and painting masking tapeyou can decorate the stairs with several models, matching furniture or decorations around:

      This is just an example but not only the stairs deserve to be decorated in various shapes, you can let your imagination fly to create models with diversified shapes and colors, including floor finishings for floors in other rooms.

      We hope that these examples were for you a generator for other interesting and colorful ideas, so…


Design in your own style!

Raspuns Traget pentru Sabina - va recomandam sa nu aplicati vopsea cu termen de expirare depasit, riscati sa nu adere corespunzator la suprafata si sa se exfolieze.

Raspuns Traget pentru Madár Szilárd - Vopseaua Oskar Direct pe Beton nu este recomandata in acest caz deoarece nu va avea deloc aderenta la piesele de mozaic, respectiv va adera doar la rosturile de beton dintre ele si ulterior se va desfolia.

Raspuns Traget pentru Zina Chiriac: Oskar Direct pe Beton este o vopsea de impregnare, deci aderenta la suprafata suport se va realiza prin intrarea vopselei in stratul superficial de beton sau asfalt. Ca urmare, aceasta vopsea se aplica direct pe betonul curat si nu avea aderenta daca pe beton au mai fost aplicate alte substante chimice, cum ar fi amorse, alte vopsele sau adezivi. Daca pe betonul respective au mai fost applicate alte vopsele, este necesar ca mai intai sa indepartati vopseaua veche prin slefuire mecanica.

Raspuns Traget pentru Cristi Scrisu: pentru masurarea umiditatii va recomandam sa folositi un umidometru (gasiti in comert la preturi incepand cu 100 RON). Vopseaua Oskar Direct pe Beton este recomandata pentru aplicarea pe pardoseli, datorita aspectului mat care-i confera proprietati antiderapante. Totusi, aceste proprietati nu sunt utile pe un gard, de aceea va recomandam sa aplicati aceasta vopsea doar pe soclu, iar pe restul gardului sa aplicati o vopsea lavabila de exterior.

Bună ziua! Mă gândeam să aplic o vopsea pe un gard făcut din bolțari. Ies mult mai ieftin din cauza manoperei de lucru. Nu știu dacă bolțarul are umiditate 2%. Considerați ca se poate?
