Since art forging
products are made from steel profiles that tend to rust quickly, they need to
be coated with a protective coating such as paint, patina, including a primer
and a solvent.
Decorative forged
products are very popular in the construction of residential and
non-residential buildings. They are used for interior decoration and garden
decoration. The most labor-consuming, durable and expensive product is hot art
forging, in which the metal is heated to a very high temperature and the most
complex shapes can be "formed" from it. This technology is often used
in home furnishings. Cold forging is less time consuming and less expensive and
is most commonly used for horticultural products. The main problem of all
forged products is corrosion, which degrades the appearance of the product and
leads to a violation of its integrity. To protect metal products, it is
necessary to purchase paints for art forging and painting structures. It is
very important to pre-protect the surfaces with a primer to obtain the highest
quality effect.
Modern blacksmith
paint is produced using innovative technologies, has high adhesion, resistance
to moisture, ultraviolet rays and weather conditions. High-quality paints for
cold and hot forging will provide excellent protection against the development
of corrosion processes, retain color saturation for a long time and provide an
excellent appearance of structures. The most popular shades are gold forge
paint, black, chocolate, beige and others. Ordinary forging paint patina
creates the effect of aging of the product, scuffs, gives volume and depth to
the forged pattern, has a very elegant and noble look.
When you see
antiques that have darkened over time, they seem even more significant and
attractive. This is the patina effect. Darkening and discoloration of the metal
is a sign of the authenticity of an antique. But it is also possible to
artificially age the metal with a patina, which can be used to decorate a
modern product. Not everyone likes the sparkle of cool gold or brushed brass.
Specially treated with patina, they acquire a more refined look and an elegant
shade with the help of patina, which does not interfere with the visual
perception of the forged object.
In addition, the
artificial patina in the forging protects the material from oxidation, such as
bronze. The patina is resistant to weathering and can protect metal for many
years both inside and out.
Artificially
"aged" garden products are especially attractive. They fit very
organically into the natural landscape, become part of it.
Nowadays, the most
often used special acrylic paint patina, which in a matter of minutes allows
you to give the surface of any product an antique look. They protect the metal
from corrosion and at the same time make it possible to simulate different
textures, for example, to make one metal look like another. So there are paints
that give the color of gold, bronze, copper, silver, as well as green and
purple patina. In search of the desired color scheme, you can combine different
types of patina.
For any kind of
finishing work, a primer is required. Improves the surface quality, removes
roughness, facilitates the subsequent process of painting walls or wallpaper.
Thanks to its use, you can reduce the consumption of finishing by 30%. There
are different types of primer on the market for specific purposes and different
types of surfaces. The main types of compositions:
A special place
among all types is occupied by deep penetration soil - an indispensable
composition for highly absorbent surfaces.
Most materials
require the use of special formulations that give them the necessary
consistency, density and viscosity. Solvents are used as such preparations. It
is a liquid chemical mixture of organic or inorganic origin, consisting of
several components. Mixing with organic substances, solvents form a homogeneous
substance with them.
The main purpose
of the product is to bring paints and varnishes to the desired consistency
before applying to surfaces. Quality solvents have the following
characteristics:
A good solvent
works only when mixed and applied to the substrate, it evaporates immediately
after that. The preparations can be used for other purposes, so you can buy
solvent for cleaning surfaces and tools, as well as for degreasing. With their
help, you can carry out processing before painting, clean rollers, brushes,
containers with paint and even clean the skin or clothes of a person from
accidental contact with paint and varnish substances.
In each case, the
appropriate solvent should be selected, which will ensure a uniform consistency
of the mixture and easy application to the substrate.
