So, which one is better, home decoration latex paint or wallpaper? Today, let’s take a look at the characteristics and selection points of home decoration latex paint together, and come in and learn about it!
first, what is non-toxic decoration latex paint.
The so-called non-toxic latex paint refers to wall decorative paints that do not contain heavy metals such as lead and mercury, as well as no organic volatiles or content of no more than 5%. Generally speaking, many latex paints that release extremely strong and even tear-induced irritating odors are mostly caused by a large amount of formaldehyde and exceeding the standard. The emulsion solution used by some inferior latex paint manufacturers contains a certain amount of formaldehyde, but the manufacturer uses paint and spices to cover up its odor. Therefore, you must choose a big brand that meets the national standards when decorating latex paint.
Second, how to identify the quality of home decoration latex paint.
Generally speaking, there are several ways to identify the quality of decoration latex paint. First, when we choose decoration latex paint on the market, we must learn to check intuitively. There are several inspection methods: ① Open the container and stir with a wooden stick to see if there is any precipitation, agglomeration and flocculation occur. If the above phenomena occur, it is an unqualified latex paint. ② Dip the decoration latex paint a little with your index finger and twist it with your thumb. It feels very delicate and you can think that the fineness is even. ③ Apply a little latex paint on a cardboard or wooden board, apply clean and dry fingers on the surface of the sample, and observe the amount of paint particles on the fingers to evaluate its resistance to rub. ④ Compare the local paint sample with the standard sample provided by the sales staff to observe the appearance and color difference of the coating.
In addition to meeting the performance standards, the excellent quality decoration latex paint has good effect on opening the cover. The paint is not layered, has no odor, has a delicate appearance, is pure in color, is convenient to construct, has no wall flow, and is small splashing; after brushing, the feel is delicate, the color is uniform and soft. All of the above can be used as our standards for measuring high-quality decoration latex paint, and we must know and know in advance.
