In recent years, our domestic architectural coatings industry can be said to be running all the way, all kinds of exterior wall decoration materials are simply countless, and the temperament of real stone paint has attracted the attention of the majority of domestic users. However, everyone understands in their hearts that whether it is the tiles used in the past, or the real stone paint today, price and performance are always the most concerned issues, after all, no one wants to spend the least money to buy the worst goods, let alone stand the test of time!So, today let's discuss whether this "real stone paint" is suitable for use as a decoration material for the exterior wall of rural self-built houses.
First of all, let's popularize what is called "real stone paint". Real stone paint, in fact, also known as "liquid stone", is made of high-quality natural colored sand, plus sunscreen latex, and a mixture of various auxiliaries, and the effect after decoration is very similar to marble and granite.
If you choose a high-quality real stone paint, it may be about 300 to 500 yuan a barrel, and the price difference between various brands is naturally not small;One square meter is basically between 70 and 150 yuan, including construction costs, compared with ceramic tiles, the cost performance is really high. Let's think about it, the highest ** per square meter is as high as 80 yuan, and the construction cost has not been counted, because the construction level directly affects the construction cost!Let's talk about whether self-built houses in rural areas should try to use "real stone paint" for exterior wall decoration.
Let's talk about its advantages first: when it comes to real stone paint, the first thing that comes to mind should be beautiful, three-dimensional, rich and diverse colors, which can be modulated according to personal preferences to meet a variety of different decorative surfaces and decorative needs. Compared with ceramic tiles (or other stones), the biggest advantage of real stone paint is that it avoids the potential danger caused by human factors such as stone or tile falling off, which is indeed a double win!
However, real stone paint is not perfect, after all, it is essentially a paint product, compared with ceramic tiles, the durability must be insufficient, generally speaking, more than 5 years of use will appear fading, peeling. And when we look closely, the texture of the real stone paint is not as fine as we imagined, and the rough texture creates a unique style that can only be seen from a distance and cannot be played up close.
When it comes to specific construction, real stone paint seems to be simple and easy, but in fact, it has high requirements for technical personnel, if the construction method is improper, uneven spraying, it is easy to lead to whitening and flowering on the surface. Finally, it is also the most noteworthy problem: real stone paint is not rainproof, afraid of rain and moisture, so if you want to use real stone paint to decorate the exterior wall, you must do a good job of waterproof treatment in advance!
Therefore, if you pay attention to cost performance and practicality, then real stone paint may not be the first choice, although the unit price is lower than that of ceramic tiles, but the follow-up repair and maintenance is also an expense that cannot be ignored. Of course, if you have a soft spot for stone decoration, real stone paint is still quite a good choice!
