There will always be many seemingly insignificant small raw materials in interior decoration, but they will immediately endanger the actual effect of the entire interior decoration! Take gypsum wire as an example, it is often overlooked due to its low price and hidden installation location. However, it does have great benefits in decorative design. Today, we will talk about gypsum wire and take a look at some of the difficulties in selection and installation!
At first, gypsum wire was a raw material made by mixing joint gypsum and water in a certain proportion, and chemical fibers were added to it to enhance its ductility and prevent it from breaking easily. Then, according to the grinding tool, make different sizes and patterns.
The function of gypsum wire is not only beautiful and elegant in decorative design, but also has a certain practical waterproof effect. Therefore, in indoor decoration, gypsum wire is mostly used at the edges.
How to determine the quality of a product when making a choice? We can categorize it into four words: 'three looks, one tap'!
If it is clear that gypsum wire needs to be installed, then when purchasing, it is important to pay attention to its surface smoothness. If there are defects on the surface, they will definitely be eliminated;
Secondly, the focus is on the intensity of the pattern. Generally, the convex and concave areas of the pattern on the gypsum line are above 11mm to ensure that the gypsum line has excellent three-dimensional practical effects;
The most important factor to consider is the thickness of the gypsum line. It should not be too thin, as it can easily break and fall off during installation;
After three steps, to be safe, you can tap hard again. If the sound coming from the gypsum line is too brittle, then the foundation is not easy to go wrong.
To achieve practical decorative design effects, in addition to selecting the appropriate gypsum line, attention should also be paid during installation. The following two installation methods are introduced in detail:
1、 Apply joint gypsum with adhesive or use bonding raw materials to immediately stick to the wall.
Regardless of the type of bonding raw material, it is stipulated that it can be immediately bonded to the putty surface of the wall, and cannot be bonded to putty powder or wall paint, otherwise it will cause the putty powder layer to crack with the wall paint in the long run, causing the gypsum line to fall off.
2、 Install the nail ejector.
This type of method does not have any regulations for rural grassroots, and installation can be carried out at any time. It uses nail bullets to fix it to the wall, and its installation level is also relatively high.
If it comes to choosing which method to install, it is suggested to choose the bonding method for the basic specifications of gypsum wire. If installing larger gypsum wire, choose the nail ejector for installation.
