Sometimes homeowners have trouble removing old paint on outdoor items. It is nice to decide to renovate a fence or a whole chair by the fireplace in the garden, but sometimes problems arise.
§ It is clear that it is absolutely not recommended to apply a new layer to the old coating.
I don\’t think it has done us a lot of good.
At least not for long.
It is clear that you need to remove the old paint.The most common method is probably to release it directly with hot air or flame.
§ An electric heat gun or gas burner is available for this purpose.
These burners are usually attached to propane butane bombs or cartridges.
§ However, according to experts, a better option is to use an electric gun.
Air temperature can be easily controlled. This is useful for those who do not have enough experience.
When heated, it can be easily heated.
The strength of the coating is very easily broken with the help of hot air. The temperature used for this varies from 180 to 650 degrees Celsius. After sufficient heating, use a spatula or paint scraper to remove the paint.
– But you have to take into account the fact that you are far from finished work.
– The surface still needs to be sanded or otherwise prepared for a new coat.
Chemistry alone may not be enough.
Chemical removers are also used to remove old coatings. They are available as liquids or gels. They glue the swollen old coating, after which it is easily peeled off.
-Chemical removers are mainly used in synthetic, epoxy or dispersion coatings.
As in the case of sunburn, the damaged layeris mechanically removed.In some cases, however, these chemicals are not effective enough. Therefore, it is necessary to repeat it.
§ Nevertheless, if you are not satisfied with the result, you can return to the good old sunburn or grinding.
