Types of liquid wallpaper. Manufacturers overview

Sooner or later, there comes a time in the life of every person when you want to change the environment and add a little color to the world. Faced with such a difficult task as renovation, many people from the range of finishing materials prefer wallpaper.

New varieties are constantly appearing on the wallpaper market, and the choice of colors and textures will leave no one indifferent. True, if the apartment has a complex layout, replete with ledges, corners and uneven surfaces, pasting the walls with ordinary paper wallpaper or installing wall panels can be a real torment. Liquid wallpaper can be a real salvation. Not all people are aware of this technology developed by French scientists yet. This finishing material appeared on the Russian markets about 20 years ago, but has already found thousands of fans.

The liquid wallpaper they have antistatic properties, they are non-flammable, they consist of natural components, therefore they are suitable for finishing both utility or office and residential premises. If you plan to use liquid wallpaper in a bathroom or kitchen, where the level of humidity is high, after applying the wallpaper, it is worth treating its surface with varnish in order to extend its service life.

An interesting advantage of liquid wallpaper is their suitability for repair: for example, if a stain appears on the wall, a child painted them or a cat scratches them with claws, you can simply tear off the damaged area from the wall and apply a new layer. So that the wallpaper does not differ in color, experts recommend using a mixture from the same batch - such material can be frozen and stored in the refrigerator just in case.

General information about applying liquid wallpaper

Before applying the selected liquid wallpaper to the surface, the wall and ceiling must be cleaned of old plaster or wallpaper. If you see that there are areas affected by mold, they need to be treated with an antifungal primer and dried thoroughly. After that, a waterproof primer is applied to the wall. Remember that unsightly yellow spots may appear after the applied wallpaper dries if you improperly prepare the surface. Liquid wallpaper can also be applied to metal surfaces - pipes or batteries, but first they must be insulated from moisture, since they can quickly rust.

You cannot work with liquid wallpaper in a room where the air temperature is below 10 degrees. If you purchased not ready-made, but dry wallpaper, you need to pour them into a separate container and add the necessary ingredients in accordance with the recommendation. Stir the mixture thoroughly - it must be homogeneous, make sure that the proportions of wallpaper paste and water are correct, otherwise the mass will be too thick or liquid, and you simply cannot apply it to the wall. Apply wallpaper with a roller or spatula, evenly distributing it over the surface. Such wallpaper dries for 12-72 hours.

Review of manufacturers of liquid wallpaper

On the Russian markets, liquid wallpaper is represented by only a few manufacturers. Leadership is retained, of course, by the French, who own the technology of liquid wallpaper.

Senideco . A French company that is popular in many countries around the world. In France, such products are called decorative cladding, the nickname "liquid wallpaper" was given by the Russians. These wallpapers are characterized by impeccable texture, high quality and attractive appearance. This is the first company to start producing such an unusual coating and the modern assortment includes about 150 colors. The wallpaper contains mica, cellulose, adhesive mixture and dyes. The price of such products is far from cheap, but the quality is worth it.

Liquid Cotex wall-paper. France is also the manufacturer of this cotton-based decorative coating. This liquid wallpaper gives you endless design possibilities. It contains cotton fibers, binders, dyes and water. This wallpaper can be applied to any surface, but you need to know one nuance: before applying, the wall or ceiling must be treated with an oil primer, otherwise the coating will pull dust and dirt from the wall to the surface. You can remove dirt from the surface of the wallpaper with stain removers designed for cotton materials. The price, of course, is higher than that of domestic manufacturers, but the quality cannot be compared.

Silkcoat... Liquid wallpaper produced by a Turkish company. This product appeared on the market of finishing materials in 1993 and has been very popular ever since. The products are safe from an environmental point of view, high-quality, lightfast, while the cost of liquid wallpaper is much lower than its French counterparts. The primer under the wallpaper should be based on acrylic binders, water-dispersion compositions are allowed. To give the surface a shine and moisture resistance, you will need a hardener varnish.

Bayramix koza. Liquid wallpaper made in Turkey. They differ from the previous version in a different color scheme and a more affordable cost. This product has good performance and quality, although it is inferior to more expensive French counterparts.

Liquid wall-paper Silk Plaster... Russian trade mark, which has been on the market of finishing materials for 15 years, offering liquid wallpaper at lower prices than foreign brands. The composition of the wallpaper includes silk fibers, dyes, cellulose, an adhesive mixture. They are resistant to direct light rays and moisture. The line offers a wide range of colors, even designer colors that are somewhat more expensive.

"Like this". Liquid wallpaper based on cotton fibers, manufacturer - Russia. This is one of the cheapest options on the market for finishing materials. However, the price affected both the range of products and the quality of the coating. The quality of this material is not too high, these wallpapers have low light resistance and hiding power.

Stenol ... Russian trade mark of liquid wallpaper. The basis of the product is a dry mixture of cellulose, thickeners, colorants, non-flammable additives that act as binders. Pulp is obtained from deciduous trees growing in the Arkhangelsk region. These wallpapers are non-combustible materials, so they can be used even for the repair of the so-called escape routes, housing. Coating "Stenol" can be used for leveling and insulation of walls, it is applied using a rolling roller - rubber or foam.

Danish plaster ... It is one of the oldest manufacturers of liquid wallpaper on the Russian market. The products are of an affordable price and high quality. However, liquid wallpaper based on cellulose has one significant drawback - low resistance to light, over time these materials can fade. In addition, this company rarely updates its product range, and given the considerable competition and the abundance of new solutions, this seems to be a big problem. At the same time, you can independently achieve any color with the help of decorative additives, without resorting to the services of specialists. Finishing is done using rollers, it is allowed to use liquid wallpaper of this brand in rooms with high humidity, but a layer of varnish must be applied to the surface.

Do not forget, liquid wallpaper is very popular with modern buyers, so more and more fakes are appearing on the markets that are not of high quality. In addition to being unattractive, they can pose a health hazard as they are made from recycled materials. Be careful when buying finishing materials: give preference only to well-known brands and do not hesitate to ask sellers to present certificates and documents.

So, in order, the information is confirmed by the test reports of the leading manufacturers of polystyrene concrete, I made a conclusion for myself and wrote at the end of the commentary. WATER RESISTANCE and HYGROSCOPICITY This is the most important property of any building material, especially in areas with high humidity. The higher the moisture resistance of the material, the more durable, stable and warmer it is. Polystyrene concrete absorbs no more than 6% moisture from the atmosphere; it can be outdoors for almost unlimited time. STRENGTH Due to the super-strong cement-polystyrene matrix, polystyrene concrete has unique strength characteristics. This material is so strong that a fall from the height of a five-story building will not cause significant damage to the block. FIRE RESISTANCE Polystyrene concrete does not burn, it is able to withstand huge temperatures caused by fire, due to its unique coefficient of thermal conductivity, does not allow heat to penetrate deep into the wall. Flammability class NG. Fire resistance class EI180. DURABILITY The service life of a polystyrene concrete house is at least 100 years. Over the years, the strength of polystyrene concrete only increases. FROST RESISTANCE Tests for frost resistance and amplitude of temperature fluctuations from + 75 ° C to - 30 ° C were carried out on 150 freeze-thaw cycles without loss of integrity and thermal insulation capacity. THERMAL INSULATION It has long been recognized that polystyrene (foam) is the best heat insulator in the world, it is even warmer than wood! A house made of polystyrene concrete does not require insulation: it is cool in summer and warm in winter. NOISE INSULATION Polystyrene concrete provides the best rate of noise absorption, 18-20 cm attenuates sound from 70 decibels. Consequently, in a house made of polystyrene concrete, there is special comfort: noises from the street and from inside from neighboring rooms and bathrooms are not disturbed. ECONOMY The cost per square meter of the finished wall is cheaper than other materials. Due to the high level of heat preservation, walls made of polystyrene concrete can be erected 25% thinner than from alternative materials (aerated concrete and foam concrete) and 4 times thinner than from brick. Saving on wall thickness leads to an overall saving on the construction of the box (foundation, roof and walls) up to 50%. At the same time, the quality of the house will be even higher, and the house itself will be warmer. SEISMIC RESISTANCE Seismic resistance 9-12 points. Polystyrene concrete has not only compressive strength, but also the highest tensile and bending strength. Therefore, polystyrene concrete is considered the most reliable and earthquake-resistant material. LIGHTNESS A large-sized block 200x300x600 mm does not exceed the weight of 17 kg, which facilitates the work of a bricklayer and reduces the time for laying walls: it replaces 20 bricks in volume, and is almost three times lighter in weight. ANTISEPTICITY The additive used in the manufacture of polystyrene concrete does not allow insects, rodents to enter the walls, prevents the formation of mold and mildew, which have a negative effect on health. STEAM PERMISSION Walls made of polystyrene concrete "breathe" similarly to walls made of wood, and there is no danger from condensation and waterlogging for them. This provides a comfortable environment in polystyrene concrete houses. PLASTICITY Plasticity is the only material made of cellular concrete that makes it possible to manufacture window and door lintels, its flexural strength is 50-60% of the compressive strength, for concrete this parameter is 9-11%. CRACK RESISTANCE Polystyrene concrete, due to its elasticity, is incredibly resistant to cracking. And this guarantees a long period of preservation of the interior decoration and the durability of the whole house. TECHNOLOGY High speed of erection of wall structures due to the lightness and convenient geometry of the blocks. Easy to saw and groove, the ability to give the building material any geometric shape. ENVIRONMENTAL The International Building Code (IRC) classifies polystyrene as one of the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly insulation materials. Thus, polystyrene concrete has a lot of undeniable advantages over such materials as expanded clay concrete, autoclaved and non-autoclaved aerated concrete, foam concrete, wood concrete, etc. The disadvantages of polystyrene concrete appear only with the wrong choice of its brand and violation of the masonry technology and preparation for interior decoration. We can say with absolute certainty that there is not a single significant advantage for materials such as aerated concrete and foam concrete over polystyrene concrete. At the same time, polystyrene concrete significantly surpasses them in key characteristics.

A good alternative to roll wallpaper is a relatively new interior material called "liquid wallpaper". Initially, the unusual coating caused some concern among potential buyers. However, the novelty quickly managed to take a strong position in the sector of topcoats thanks to its special qualities. What is the specific variety of liquid wallpaper, what characteristics does this type of finish have, as well as manufacturers and prices for liquid wallpaper.

Overview of liquid wallpaper - what are they, in what form are they sold?

The world owes the appearance of liquid wallpaper to the French rabbit. It was Charles VII who gave the order for the urgent restoration of the captured castle. Unable to use silk fabrics (the reason lay in the destruction of Parisian looms), the courtiers had to urgently get out of their predicament. Shredding the silk linen and adding flour as a binder saved the day. The coating turned out to be not only beautiful and original, it prevented heat loss and the penetration of sounds from the outside.

Generally speaking, the following can be said about liquid wallpaper: in the finishing material under consideration, there is a combination of the best qualities of paper wallpaper, paintwork and decorative plaster.

Some people confuse the liquid version of the wallpaper with a decorative type of plaster. This is a fairly common but misconception. The difference between these materials in their composition. There is no sand component in the wallpaper, which cannot be said about plaster. What is the basis of liquid wallpaper.

This type of finish consists of:

  • Cotton.
  • Cellulose.
  • Polyester.
  • Dyed fibers ... As a rule, it is silk (natural or artificial). In fact, this is the main component responsible for creating a tissue effect.
  • Decorative elements (with a pearlescent presence, shine, marble) adding sophistication to the material.

At points of sale, the appearance of liquid wallpaper is not very similar to a rolled "relative". The buyer purchases sealed packages with powder or ready-mixed. The dry variation is produced in the form of fine sawdust. This is a special wallpaper material impregnated with glue. It requires the addition of warm water. Then the mixture is applied to the surface. The main thing in this matter is the uniformity of the distribution of the applied layer. In some cases, the procedure is completed by tinting the wall with a special paint.

For reference ... Walls covered with liquid wallpaper can look like paper relief, silk or foam. It depends on the choice of the liquid wallpaper version.

Species variety of liquid wallpaper

For the final touch in the decoration of a residential or office space, you can use the following liquid wallpaper, the name of which actually determines the basis of the composition:

  1. Silk ... The material is predominantly composed of silk fibers. It belongs to the highest quality species due to its long service life and resistance to sunlight. The cost matches the quality, that is, it exceeds the price of the species listed below.
  2. Cellulosic ... The criteria for quality and appearance are significantly lower than those of silk counterparts. The price criterion is at the same level - they are the cheapest in the segment of liquid wallpaper.
  3. Silk-cellulose ... Presented by a blend of fibers. Refers to the middle option between silk and cellulosic materials.

If we are guided by the type of use, then the wallpaper is divided into groups:

  • Ready-to-use material ... Only water is added to it. Next, the decoration of the walls begins. A similar process is on the strength of an amateur. No special skills required.
  • Wallpapers requiring painting ... They are produced exclusively in white. To obtain a different shade, skill in the use of dyes and decorative components is required. As a rule, such work is entrusted to professionals.

What are the characteristics of the "liquid" representatives of the wallpaper sector - the plus and minus sides of the choice

Benefits:

  • Luxurious appearance. The room becomes comfortable and cozy.
  • Originality and unusual design of the walls. There is an opportunity to create fancy patterns and panels.
  • Ease and speed of restoration work. Experts talk about a time span of 5-10 minutes.
  • The material is environmentally friendly and harmless, there is no smell.
  • They are distinguished by their immunity to third-party odors, they simply cannot be absorbed by the wallpaper. For this reason, they are of interest for kitchens.
  • In the cold season, the walls decorated with liquid wallpaper retain heat, that is, the finish has thermal insulation properties.
  • There is no need for special preparation of the walls. Wallpaper copes with filling cracks and leveling other defects.
  • The consequences in the form of seams and gaps are not relevant for liquid wallpaper solutions.
  • They do not fade, do not lag behind the surface, serve regularly for a long time.
  • They are not afraid of temperature changes and building shrinkage.
  • The wallpaper has anti-static and dust-repellent effects.
  • High fire safety criterion. Having such wallpapers, you can not be afraid that they will burn. If the fire gets to the finish, then the release of poisonous gas will definitely not be.
  • Reusable. The coating removed from the surface with a spatula is placed in a container and diluted with water until a mixture is obtained, which can be reapplied.

What are the disadvantages of the luggage:

  • The high cost of finishing.
  • Low degree of moisture resistant parameter. The stained area is not washed to prevent the cover from being completely washed off. They are protected from water influence with a layer of colorless varnish applied to the walls.
  • Any contact (rubbing objects, touching people, and so on) threatens the wallpaper with abrasion.

Despite the disadvantages, such wallpapers are not deprived of practicality. Compliance with basic rules allows you to enjoy the beauty of the coating for 10 years or more.

Liquid wallpaper: colors, possibilities and selection rules

You should know that the selection of a specific model of liquid wallpaper largely depends on the appearance in a particular place. Moreover, pure white, yellow, green, red, blue, purple and other colors (if we talk about pure colors) can be selected quite easily, but shades and combinations are a long process.

There is only one enemy for pure color - yellow spots, which can appear over time if the surface to be coated has not been properly prepared; for other color combinations, the quality of the substrate preparation also matters, but with complex patterns and combinations, the quality of the materials and colors that are used with them comes to the fore.

Photo 29 - Original liquid wallpaper

The foregoing makes it possible to formulate a general rule for choosing liquid wallpaper: when choosing monotonous and monotonous patterns and textures, you can use cheaper offers, where the quality at the texture level can have less impact. But the higher the detail of the drawings, the higher the requirements for the quality of materials increase.

Silk liquid wallpaper
