Private house fur coat

An integral stage in the development of a house project is the choice of a way of its outer decoration. It implies the choice of suitable material and a thorough study of the overall style of the building. To date, the decoration of the facades of private houses directly reflects the level of wealth and taste preferences of the owners of the house, and the finishing materials used in the process of facing work are characterized not only by decorative, but also by functional purpose. In the process of choosing materials for decorating the facade of the building, it is necessary to take into account many technological nuances, such as the architectural features of the building, landscape territory, as well as the climatic characteristics of the region in which the residential building is located. Given the foregoing, we can conclude that the facing materials used should not only be combined with the general style of the architectural object and landscape territory, but should also be resistant to the effect of atmospheric precipitation. The construction market offers a wide selection of facing materials, many of which are an example of an ideal combination of price and quality. One of these options is recognized as the facade of the fur coat, which is not only the subject of cladding, but also an independent design solution. If you are looking for a simple, practical and, at the same time, the original way of decorating the facade of the house, the fur coat will be the only right solution for you.

What is the finish of the house with a fur coat and how is it attractive?

The decoration of the facade of the house with a fur coat got its name due to the external similarity to the fur located on the inside of the sheepskin coat, in connection with which, speaking of this method of decoration of the facade, it implies not plowing fur, but cladding, visually reminiscent of its texture. It is important to understand that, in fact, a fur coat is one of the varieties of plaster, which involves applying a sand -cement mortar by spraying to the wall surface. Throwing or spraying the solution onto the processed plane allows you to achieve a roughness of roughness characteristic of a fur coat. Before proceeding with the acquisition of materials to implement this method of finishing the facade of the house, it is necessary to study its advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of finishing the house with a fur coat:

• In view of the excellent tolerance of temperature changes and high humidity, the coating for the fur coat will protect the basic surface from external influences;
• In the case of using plaster under the fur coat, it is possible to finish the base plane with various patterns, thanks to which the construction will be different from others. In addition, in the process of preparing the solution, it is possible to give it any color shade;
• The simplicity of installation measures is also attractive, thanks to which you can do all your work with your own hands without resorting to the help of specialists. This will significantly reduce the final cost of repairs;
• The surface design can be diversified due to simple and technically affordable techniques, for example, by adding granular components with different fraction, using a grid, etc.;
• In view of the low weight of the plaster, it practically does not increase the load on the walls and the foundation.

Important! As for insulation, it should be noted that, despite the fact that the fur coat performs the function of the insulation, it will not cope with this function in full if the walls of residential building are thin and insufficiently insulated.

Disadvantages of the finish of the house with a fur coat:

A number of negative aspects are also characteristic of the wall decoration for a fur coat, which masters often learn about after applying the plaster.

• Firstly, the textured surface collects dust;
• Secondly, the decoration of the facade for a fur coat may not be combined with all stylistic solutions. For example, in the case of proper selection of colors, she will favorably complement traditional classical styles, then with a modern high-tech style it is practically not combined;
• The heat -insulating qualities of the fur coat do not exceed those for traditional plaster.

As for the severity of the decorative relief, compared to another type of bark beetle plaster, the fur coat loses to him in this regard, but it looks more elegant and modern.

Preparation of the draft surface

• By analogy with other methods of decorative decoration of the facades, the installation of a fur coat begins with the preparation of the base surface, which should be carefully plastered, as it will determine its adhesive characteristics and the subsequent degree of adhesion of the fur coat with the base.

Important! If, having measured the planes, you found out that the walls are quite even and their difference does not exceed 0.5 mm per square meter. A meter, in the process of plastering the facade you can not set the beacons. Even greater deviations of heights on the plane of the wall are possible in the case of using a fur coat, the fraction of which exceeds 10 mm.

• If the height drops exceed 2 cm, the surface of the wall, which is carried out by applying the black layer of plaster, will be required.
• First of all, inspect the surface and, armed with a brush on metal, remove the previous coating. In the presence of partial trim, it is also removed with tiles;
• To ensure high adhesive characteristics, the surface should be rough. On a smooth surface with a chisel and a hammer, special notches or recesses at the seams of brickwork are applied, which will increase the adhesive characteristics of the surface;
• Next, the surface is treated with an antiseptic, which is especially true if you are dealing with old buildings. Thanks to this procedure, you protect the walls from the fungus;
• Having completed full processing, apply a primer layer, which after drying will ensure high -quality gripping surfaces. To achieve the maximum effect, experts recommend using a liquid primer of deep penetration, which is applied with a brush or spray gun.

Important! To make the connection of surfaces even better and more durable, the masters recommend strengthening it with a construction grid.

Preparation of the solution: the composition of the mixture

Manual mixing of components

• For external decoration, a fur coat, or rather a solution, is prepared from a mixture of cement and river sand, which are mixed in certain proportions. The ratio of components is determined by the brand of the cement used. If you took as a basis the cement of the M300 brand, 3 parts of cement and 1 part of the sand will be required to prepare the solution. If you use the M400 brand cement, the ratio of the components is 4: 1, M500 5: 1.
• Sand and cement are covered in a container prepared in advance with even walls and bottom, taking into account the ratios indicated earlier, and add water, bringing the mixture to the consistency of potato puree. Experts recommend preparing a small volume of the mixture and try in a small area. The need for this is explained by the fact that the decorative effect of the fur coat is determined by the density of the working mixture: the higher the density, the more pronounced the texture of the plastered surface will be.

Important! To prevent premature settlement of a cement mortar, it is recommended to add a little washing powder to it. In order for the consistency of the mixture to be more uniform, a drill with a nozzle must be used to knead the solution.

There are many ways to increase the decorative characteristics of the plaster mix. In order to diversify the type of facade plaster, the following techniques are used:

• The dye of the required color is added to the finished mixture, which will prevent burnout of the painted surface and eliminate the need to update it;
• To make the texture more pronounced, the mixture includes the same amount of putty and enamel paint;
• For the same purpose, marble chips, pieces of multi -colored glass and similar materials are added to a thick plaster mixture.

Important!If you plan to give the facade some shade, experts recommend that you prefer to apply paint to a finished fur coat. This is due to the fact that in the process of tinting the solution before applying it, it will be difficult to achieve a uniform shade, since kneading the solution will have to be carried out several times. However, if you are confident in your abilities or you have to plastered a small area, which will allow you to knead and install a fur coat at a time, you can neglect these recommendations.

Using dry mixtures

On sale there are dry plaster mixtures based on cement, which can be not only white, but also colored. They are mixed with water and, using a construction mixer equipped with a special nozzle, brought to a homogeneous consistency. Having kept the solution for 5 minutes, it is mixed again, after which it is completely ready for use. It is important to prepare the mixture in the amount that will be used at a time.

Using ready -made mixtures

In addition to dry mixtures, construction stores offer ready -made plaster compositions, the main difference of which is not an aggregate state, but the chemical composition of the majority of mixtures was based on acrylic copolymers, which reduces the vapor permeability of the finishing layer, along with this, increasing its elasticity.

Application of a fur coat to the wall: basic methods and tools

After the solution is prepared and all preparatory measures are performed, it is necessary to proceed to the direct application of the plaster. If you are a newcomer, use the fur coat presented in the Video Article, for you, it will not be as difficult process as it seems at first glance.

There are four main ways to apply a fur coat to the wall. Consider them in more detail.

• Sliding the solution on the wall using a broom and stick - The decoration option, according to the majority, carried out by the grandfather's method. As can be seen from the context, it is produced using a broom and a stick. Despite the fact that the technique gradually goes into the past, outlining themselves, some masters still appreciate the cheapness, characteristic simplicity of execution and accessibility and the tools used. However, it will be acceptable only for surfaces with a small area. To put the solution to one of the simplest and most affordable methods, take a broom in one hand, dip it in its solution and, tapping it on the stick that is in the other hand, form the solution of the solution to the surface.

Important! To obtain smaller spray, the broom must be replaced with a hard brush, and a stick with a thin wooden rail. Draw along the brush a rail in a direction opposite wall and small spray will fall on the processed surface.

Important!In the process of applying plaster in this way, irregularities often occur, which can ruin the appearance of the plastered surface. If you notice such a drawback, remove the excess solution of the solution with a cell and repeat the application of the solution.

• Sliding the solution through the net Another available method of manual application of a fur coat. The texture of the plastered surface, the installation of which was carried out using this method, will be slightly different from the one that is applied using a broom and a stick. To make the application process more convenient, experts advise stretching the screen from the net on a wooden frame. The resulting design is placed near the wall and, as the work progresses, it is moved along its surface, throwing the solution onto the grid with a trowel.

In addition to manual, there are hardware methods for applying a fur coat.

• Application of plaster using a mechanical machine One of the modern improved hardware methods. In the process of work, a machine is used, the design of which represents nothing more than a drum made of stainless steel and equipped inside with blades. In the process of work, the mechanism is scrolled by a pen, which is located on the side of the drum. The process of work is as follows:

• The solution is loaded inside the drum and the structure is directed so that the output is facing the wall, after which the handle is scrolling. The unit is considered convenient to use, but it needs regular washing and thorough cleaning. In case of neglect of this recommendation, the blades will soon be clogged with a frozen solution, which will lead to the failure of the mechanical structure;

• Application of a fur coat using a compressorapparatus pushing the solution to the surface under pressure, which is created by compressed air. This principle of operation has certain similarities with what underlies the work of a mechanical machine with rotating blades. The use of the compressor is valued by professional builders, which with its help can perform a large amount of work in a short time. In addition, with the help of this device, the uniformity of the solution is ensured, as well as the same shape and size of the flight drops.

Important! If you prefer this method, do not rush to purchase a compressor, it can be rented from professional builders, which will cost much cheaper.

• Fragmentary application of a fur coat It is practiced by creative people who want to diversify the design of the facade. In the process of fragmentary application of a fur coat, plaster is applied to separate sections of the wall, highlighting the protrusions of the walls or drawing various geometric shapes. In this case, textured plaster is applied to areas pre -limited rails.

​

Important! Before proceeding with the application of textured plaster, carefully compare your own strengths and the assigned period of time allotted. Within one day, it is recommended to throw plaster on a dedicated plane, and if you need to take a break in work, the edges of the freshly plaster are covered with a film. This will protect the plaster from the appearance of cracks after applying a new portion of the solution.

Tips for masters who need to pay attention to

In order for the plaster under the fur coat to be exploited for a long time, maintaining its original appearance, it is necessary to follow the useful tips that our experienced craftsmen give. Especially pay attention to the following recommendations.

• Application of plaster must be carried out under certain weather conditions. The air temperature should be in the range from +5 to +27 degrees, and direct sunlight should not fall on the plastered surface (it is best to carry out work in cloudy, but not rainy weather). This will prevent the rapid, uneven drying of the plaster layer and its subsequent cracking;
• The plaster is applied in three layers, which are applied in series in one day. In this case, each subsequent layer is thrown after a slight drying of the previous one;
• Do not save from the primer, it must be applied;
• To give the solution the desired shade, the following mineral powders are used: finely crushed cobalt glass, stone coal powder, red iron -shaped powder, white asbestos and finely crushed white marble. They are added to the solution during mixing of sand, cement and water;
• Special requirements are also imposed on the consistency of the solution: the solution should be rare, but at the same time do not slide the walls;
• To increase the granularity of the fur coat, it is recommended to use a stick with a broom or a metal grid. To create a less pronounced texture, a metal net is chosen.

Staining the facade for a fur coat: recommendations of specialists

As mentioned above, to give a fur coat a uniform shade practice staining facades for a fur coat. This can be done in several ways.

• One of the easiest ways is the use of color plaster, which is added to the solution in such an amount that it provides the desired shade of the necessary intensity. It practically does not burn out, and in the case of microscopic cracks, the intensity of the shade will not change.

Important! The staining of the facade for the fur coat is associated with certain difficulties associated with the relief of the surface. The texture of the fur coat implies height drops to 3 mm, which, on the one hand, increases the area of \u200b\u200bthe working surface and overspending of the paint, and on the other, makes staining with a roller or brush almost impossible, since the surface will be painted unevenly.

• In view of this, it is necessary to consider a more effective method of staining the facade under the fur coat by the use of a spray gun or spray gun, which breaks the coloring composition into the smallest spray, which allows you to evenly stain all the irregularities, while reducing the paint consumption. If necessary, some areas are painted with a brush.

Despite the cheapness of work (the total repair price consists only of the cost of sand, cement and dyes) the result will often surpass your expectations. Having familiarized yourself with the article, you are most likely convinced that the process of applying a fur coat is quite simple, especially if there are special automated devices. To consolidate skills, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the video presented below.
