The cork coating of the walls differs in its soundproofing and heat -insulating properties, and the plant structure is suitable for almost any interior.
The cork is used in the form of tiles or in the form of wallpapers on a paper basis. The tile is available in size 30 by 30 or 30 by 60, and the wallpaper – no more than 90 cm wide. And this and that is glued with PVA.
. To protect their dust, you can cover the wallpaper with varnish (but you need to choose such a varnish that will allow you to breathe a cork) or wax.
Before starting the laying of the tile, the length of the wall is measured, its middle is noted, and then with the help of a plumb line, level and a long rail, two lines are drawn to two identical parts by the width and height. The wall tiles are covered in a certain way (a row vertically, a series of horizontally), so you must first measure the wall and make the necessary calculations. The tiles of the tiles are adjusted at the very end. . .
The styling begins from the point of intersection of two lines. Before gluing the tile thoroughly, it is applied to the wall and its contour is circulated with a pencil. This allows you to see the location of the remaining tiles. In order to avoid distortions, first marked on the wall of tiles in a horizontal row, and then in the vertical.
Glue is applied to the wall, not on the tile, using a spatula. They begin to apply tiles to the wall from the lower edge, gradually pressing on the entire surface. This will help to avoid air bubbles. To avoid sliding along the wall, the tile can be fixed with decorative cloves. To design the edge, the glue is already applied to the tile.
As for the gluing of cork wallpapers, due to non -standard width, you must immediately prepare for a large number of waste. You can use them for pasting walls in areas inaccessible to the eyes: behind the cabinet, under the window, etc. D.
To do this, use a special glue, which is applied with a roller on the back of the wallpaper.
The wallpaper is glued to the end, and the part protruding for the baseboard must be cut off with scissors, and not with a mounting knife. . Then this site is ironed with a roller for processing seams. It is most convenient to glue the wallpaper together, since the smeared with glue, they are easily torn.
