PVC plastic flooring has become the preferred flooring material for stadiums, gyms, kindergartens and other places due to its excellent performance and wide applicability. However, after laying the plastic flooring, how to draw clear and beautiful lines for these places to enhance the use effect and aesthetics of the site?
Generally speaking, there are two main methods of crossing:
1.Draw with a special scribing ink. This method is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also has an excellent slip resistance coefficient and is not easy to fall off, providing a safer and more stable sports environment for athletes and children.
2.It is pasted with special ball string tape. Although the cost of this method is lower, the aesthetics are relatively poor, and it is easy to fall off, and the anti-slip performance is not as good as that of special scribing ink.
For places that pursue professionalism and a sense of quality, special scribing inks are undoubtedly a more ideal choice. So, what should we pay attention to when choosing a scribe ink?
First of all, try to avoid using paint for scribing. Because the paint is easy to fall off in pieces after drying, it not only affects the aesthetics, but also may cause potential safety hazards. In contrast, screen printing inks have better adhesion and durability, making them a more ideal choice.
Secondly, when choosing screen printing ink, we can choose different colors according to personal preferences and venue needs. Conventional colors include white, yellow, red, orange, blue, green, etc., and if other colors are needed, ink manufacturers can also make color matching.
During the marking process, we need to prepare some necessary tools, such as masking paper and a small brush. First, use masking paper to mark out the underlined area, and then use a small brush to carefully brush the ink mixed with the thinner. After the ink is dry, gently tear off the masking paper.
It is worth noting that when marking PVC plastic flooring, it is necessary to avoid doing it on floors with UV treatment. Because the surface of the floor after UV treatment is smooth and oil-resistant, it is difficult for the ink to penetrate and adhere, and it is easy for the ink to fail to dry. Therefore, when scribing on commercial PVC flooring, it is recommended to paste the scribing area with masking paper first, and then gently sand it with sandpaper to remove the UV layer before scribing.
In conclusion, when marking plastic flooring in places such as basketball courts, gyms, and kindergartens, we need to choose the right marking method and material, and follow the correct operation steps to ensure that the lines are clear, beautiful, and durable. At the same time, we also need to pay attention to avoid marking on the UV-treated floor to ensure the marking effect and safety of use.
