Your home is your fortress, a reliable rear, a place for mental relaxation. Therefore, the environment in it must correspond to all these parameters. What creates comfort and peace in the home? Of course, the corresponding interior. Many owners, to create an atmosphere of comfort, warmth and a special aura of goodness and well-being in the house, use ordinary wooden lining as interior decoration, which has again come into fashion in recent years.
But the finish is beautiful, as is beautiful woman, requires a reliable defender for himself.
Lining protection
No matter what kind of wood the wooden covering is made of, its protection must be approached with all responsibility. After all, its natural beauty and durability depend on this.
There is currently no shortage of protective equipment. What types of protective coatings exist and what properties do they have? Experts highlight the following:
1. Translucent and opaque antiseptics so-called glazing and covering.
These products protect the wood from fungal growths, darkening and rotting. They can serve as protection from 3 to 5 years.
Glazing coatings, protecting the surface with a translucent film, highlight the structure of the wood and emphasize its beauty.
Coating products not only protect, but also decorate the tree, hide its defects, highlighting its relief. We can recommend: Valtti Techo, Vinha. All of them are produced by the Finnish company Tekkurila.

2. Oil paints - a good and fairly common type of protection. Their distinctive feature is their special resistance to adverse natural influences.
They are well absorbed into wood and prevent deep penetration of water vapor into its structure.
Of course, slow drying and change color range(burnout) are among their negative qualities, but in general they are quite suitable for protective purposes. Durosil and Teho are commonly used types of oil paints for wood.
3. Acrylic paints for many years retain their color and shine. While protecting the wood, they at the same time allow it to “breathe”, and the substance included in their composition - acrylate - prevents the dye from cracking, preserving it original appearance for a long time, can last up to 10 years. Some of the representatives are Pinya Pro and Pica Techo.
And the most effective and popular defenders among consumers, without any doubt, are various: polyurethane, alkyd, varnishes water based . We will look at which lining varnish perfectly protects and is best suited for the interior, as well as its distinctive features, in more detail.
Water-based varnishes - features, advantages and disadvantages
Choosing a varnish for the lining inside a house is not an easy task.
Experts who work with various types of wood know this firsthand. First of all, they advise paying close attention to the water base. and their individual characteristics:
- High degree of protection from exposure to adverse environmental factors.
- Durability. They note that they stay on the surface for 5 to 7 years.
- Decorative features that positively affect the structure wooden coverings and them appearance. They do not spoil the natural color of the wood and do not give a yellow tint.
- Environmentally friendly. They do not emit harmful fumes that have a detrimental effect on the health of household members. They do not have allergic components.
- Quick drying (up to 24 hours) and self-leveling, which makes it possible to obtain a perfectly flat surface.
- Fire safety. They contain components that inhibit wood fire.
The main feature of such paints is that, while forming a transparent film on the surface of the wood, they do not spoil the surface texture, leaving a natural wood pattern and color.
In addition, they do not contain solvents that cause allergic reaction body.
Many water-based varnishes contain one or two components. What does it mean?
One-component ones do not contain a hardener and are easier to use. However, they have a significant drawback - they are not very durable.
Two-component varnishes contain a hardener, which better protects the surface of the wood and prevents it from crumbling or swelling for many years.
Speaking about water-based varnishes, experts, based on their features and consumer reviews, give them an excellent rating and believe that they are the best suited for interior decoration.
However, it should also be noted minor flaws- Do not use strong chemicals when cleaning and washing. May fade. Therefore, you need to carefully choose detergents and cleaning agents, and preferably, on a natural basis.
Preparing the lining for varnishing
So that the varnish for the lining lays beautifully and the surface of the wood is smooth and pleasing to the eye, it needs to be prepared for painting.
First of all, you need to clean the wood from dirt, dust and remove all irregularities. To do this, you can walk over the surface with a steel or hair brush.
Then pumice and sandpaper clean all roughness, especially carefully at the ends and chamfers. Then the wood can be washed with warm water with the addition of 2% soda. And let it dry well. This is the first stage of preparation.
Second stage preparation is to treat the wood with a primer. This stage is very important. The primer fills the entire porous surface of the wood, which significantly saves paint consumption. You can apply the primer either with a brush or a roller; many people use a spray gun to speed up the process.
Now you can begin the varnishing process itself.

Varnishing of lining with a water-based composition
Covering is not very difficult. The main thing is to know the operating technology and follow the operating instructions.
- Do not dilute with drying oil or other thinners. Water-based varnish may curl. They are diluted only with water.
- The dye should not be stored at sub-zero temperature, especially to paint. May freeze and become unusable.
- Stir thoroughly before use until smooth.
- To apply varnish, it is better to use brushes made of natural bristles, small in diameter. They crumble less and do not leave unwanted fragments on the surface.
- The use of a spray gun is encouraged. The varnish will be evenly distributed throughout the wood.
- Can also be used paint roller, but with short pile.
- The varnish should be applied in a continuous motion along the surface, then it will lay down in an even layer.
- It is advisable to make two or three such layers. Which will give a rich, uniform color.
- When covering the lining with each subsequent layer of varnish, you must allow the previous layer to dry. After drying, it is better to sand each layer with zero-grade sandpaper before applying the next layer of dye. Then the surface will delight the master with a deep, uniform color.

Prices
Water-based lining varnishes have different prices. It all depends on the manufacturer and the quality of the product. Here are some of them:
- PANELLILAKA- a water-based mixture for varnishing walls and ceilings made of wood, produced by the Finnish company Teknos. The cost is 409 rubles for 0.9 liters.
- Varnish TOBAGO, the same company Teknos. Also applicable for interior work and is water based. Price for 0.9 liters is 209 rubles.
- PANELLI ACCA matte- also water-based from Tikkurila. Used for wooden coverings. Price for 0.9 liters is 475 rubles.
- PANELLI ACCA semi-matte- intended for wood panels. Water-based. Price for 0.9 liters is 637 rubles.
As you can see, prices vary greatly. You can decide for yourself which varnish to choose. We hope that our advice will help you make your home cozy and safe.
Lining is a finishing material that looks good in the interior wooden house. It is used for both residential and commercial premises. The wood from which it is made needs to be treated with protective agents. And to give an attractive appearance, a decorative coating is applied to the lining. Naturally, to create a beautiful coating you need to choose the right processing products and decorative materials.
Why treat lining and how to choose the right products
Before processing the lining you should find out:
- is it necessary to apply a protective coating, or can you do without it;
- in which rooms the treatment will be carried out - dry or with high humidity;
- whether to apply a decorative coating, tint or leave it natural.
Having decided, you can begin to select the impregnation and material for decorative finishing linings in interior spaces. You can leave the lining uncoated, but this option is suitable for people who are satisfied with the fact that the wood darkens over time. Some owners do it on purpose artificial aging by using blowtorch. After this, it not only darkens, but also releases resin, which gives the surface its individuality. It happens that bathhouse owners do not treat the walls because they use cheap lining. It will be more practical for them to change it completely after a few years rather than waste time and money on processing it.
In order to properly process the walls, you should know what functions the impregnation for the lining inside the house should perform. So, the impregnation should:
- provide good protection against fire; fire retardants, which reduce its flammability, give wooden products such qualities;
- protect from moisture, especially in damp areas. To do this, antiseptic agents are applied to the wooden surface;
- protect from mechanical damage (chips and scratches);
- protect from exposure ultraviolet rays. Wood treated with agents that increase resistance to ultraviolet radiation changes its color more slowly;
- provide bactericidal protection against insects;
- give walls beautiful view. You can give the lining the desired shade using tinting. Using varnish, you can make the surface glossy, matte or semi-matte.
To give the tree the necessary properties, several compounds that have the required qualities are usually used.
Types of compositions - fire retardants, stains, varnishes and paints
All compositions for processing lining can be divided into two groups: protective and decorative. The first are designed to extend service life. They protect against moisture, insects, fungus, and mold. The latter give the lining an attractive appearance. The treatment must be updated regularly, as over time the products lose their properties. Processing of lining indoors is carried out with the following compounds.
Fire retardants reduce the flammability of wood. This is especially important for living rooms. If a fire occurs, fire retardants prevent the spread of fire and help extinguish it. They are odorless and therefore harmless to health.
Antiseptic agents protect against the formation of mold and mildew. Stops the spread of existing mold. Over time, the product is washed out and evaporates, so it is necessary reprocessing. There are bio-moisture protective agents that not only protect against fungus, mold, and pests, but also give the wood water-repellent qualities and an attractive appearance. They are expensive, but make it possible to refuse treatment with stain, antiseptic and varnish.
The stain performs antiseptic functions, but at the same time gives the wooden surface a tint. The most popular stains are those that give dark shades. This product does not create a film on the surface, but penetrates into the pores of the material to a small depth. Wood saturated with stain should be varnished, otherwise the surface will look dirty. Drying oil was previously very popular, but recently it has been used less and less. The wood quickly darkens, and after 2-3 years the surface becomes sticky. It is used for utility rooms.
Bleach is intended for removal from wooden surfaces. dark spots, areas with a blue tint, stripes. There are several types of such products, differing in application and effectiveness. Typically the product is applied to the surface and then certain time washed off.
Varnishes are used if you want to preserve the naturalness and texture of wood. Use indoors acrylic varnishes, harmless to human health. The first layer is applied transparently, without dyes, and in the second layer coloring pigments are added. Alkyd varnishes are more used for floors, as they have high strength properties. They are applied to walls in places where large mechanical loads are possible. An alternative is wax mixtures that protect the wood and give the surface a semi-matte shine.
Oil paint penetrates deeply into wood, provides good protection from moisture, and is resistant to mechanical damage. Used for decorative finishing. Disadvantages: low vapor permeability, takes a long time to dry, loses color over time. Acrylate paint is in many ways superior to its oil counterpart: it dries quickly, does not fade over time, penetrates well into pores, gives a rich color, and has high vapor barrier qualities. It does not crack if the panels are affected by temperature changes. This paint has one drawback - its high cost.
Technology for applying protective and decorative coatings
At the finishing stage, a novice builder has to master new technologies. You need to nail the lining correctly, know how and with what to treat it, and perform decorative finishing. Coating the material with the selected means is carried out in stages. Before processing, prepare the lining.
- 1. First, it should be cleaned of contamination with a solution. To do this, dilute baking soda in warm water. Wash the lining with this solution. If there is an old layer of paint, for better adhesion it is advisable to completely remove the previous layer to remove cracks and peeling.
- 2. Inspect the cleaned lining: remove mold, mildew, and treat darkened spots with bleach. Finally, the panels should be wiped with a clean rag to completely remove dirt and paint residues. If there are damaged panels, they must be replaced.
- 3. At the next stage, we grind the surface. The operation is performed using pumice or fine-grained sandpaper. To ensure that there are no unsanded areas left, divide the entire wall into small sections and process them sequentially. Sanding should be done evenly, being careful not to rub in one place and not to apply much force.
- 4. The final stage of preparing the lining for application of products is priming. Apply a layer of primer to the wall using a brush or spray gun. The seams between the panels must be treated especially carefully. One layer is enough. Sometimes a painting compound is used as a primer.
By yourself or with a brush. To paint, prepare two brushes: a narrow one and a medium one – use the narrow one to paint hard-to-reach places. In order for the coating to serve for a long time and be durable, you need to apply 2-3 thin layers. The painting procedure is as follows:
- mix the paint and pour it into a small container;
- dip the brush in paint up to half the bristles;
- Before applying, press the brush to the surface and smoothly move it along the panel;
- then apply the paint in the same way over the entire surface, without touching the painted areas;
- We paint corners and openings with a narrow brush.
You should start applying paint from the top to avoid drips. To eliminate shade differences, apply one coat at a time. If you need to take a break, you should leave your work out of sight. Apply the next layer after the previous one has completely dried. Make the final layer of minimum thickness and apply it with light, even movements from top to bottom.
The varnish is applied in the same way. If the product is tinted, it should be thoroughly mixed before application and stirred periodically during operation. Add less to each subsequent layer. coloring pigment, in this case, the surface after painting will acquire a deeper and more attractive shine.
Coating the lining inside the house with protective compounds is a mandatory stage of work. Without treatment, the material quickly loses its attractive appearance, cracks and becomes dirty. To prevent this from happening, follow the recommendations in this review and reliably protect your finish.

Impregnations
These compositions are distinguished by the fact that they penetrate deep into the structure of the material and do not create a film on the surface. Some of the solutions discussed below can be used as full-fledged protective layer, others can only be used as preparation for finishing.
The most popular options are:
- Stains give the surface a certain shade, but do not protect it from water and other influences. The compositions can be water-based, alcohol-based or oil-based. They differ in properties, but perform the same function. The choice depends on specific conditions, but the most popular are water-based solutions, they are distinguished by their low price and safety;
![](https://i0.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryt-vagonku-na-lodzhii-1024x768.jpg)
- Impregnations on acrylic base often called azures. They differ from stains in that they tightly close the pores of wood, so they can also be used as finishing. If you are thinking about how to cover the lining to prevent it from darkening, then this option will come in handy. Acrylic emulsion reliably protects against ultraviolet radiation, and the surface retains its original color for a long time;
![](https://i0.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryt-vagonku-snaruzhi-doma.png)
- How to cover the lining outside the house or inside the premises to protect them from mold? Antiseptic compounds provide excellent protection against fungus and extend the life of wood significantly. Such solutions are used exclusively as a preparatory layer; the surface is always covered with something again;
![](https://i2.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/pokrytie-vagonki-vnutri-doma.jpg)
- If you are thinking about the best way to coat eurolining in order to increase its resistance to fire, then the best option would be special fire-retardant compounds. They also serve as a preparatory layer before the main coat. A universal fire-bioprotective solution can be an excellent solution; it makes the material resistant to both fire and mold.

Choose products famous manufacturers. You won’t be able to check its quality by eye, so it’s better to consult to find out which formulations have proven themselves best.
Lucky
This group of products allows you to create a durable layer on wood that protects the material from moisture. In addition, using varnish you can give the surface the desired shade, or you can use colorless options.
Let's figure out what types of compositions there are:
- Oil-based solutions create a durable protective layer that has good abrasion resistance. They can be used to treat any indoor surface. This option is characterized by low cost and a fairly large assortment of colors;
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/pokrytie-dlya-vagonki-vnutri-doma.png)
- If you are thinking about how to cover the lining on the loggia, then pay attention to alkyd varnishes. They adhere very well to the material, give it shine and an even structure and protect it well from moisture;
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryt-vagonku-chtoby-ne-temnela.jpg)
- The most environmentally friendly coating for lining inside the house is acrylic-based varnish. They are absolutely safe, odorless and adhere well to wood. An additional advantage can be considered low cost, and the main disadvantage is low abrasion resistance. For this reason, you should not use this composition on surfaces that are frequently touched;
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryt-vagonku-v-dome.jpg)
- For those who are deciding how to cover the outside of the lining, it is best to pay attention to polyurethane-based compounds. They have exceptional strength and wear resistance and create a reliable protective layer on the surface. They can also be used inside where you need to give the surface strength and protect it from wear.
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/kak-obnovit-vagonku-pokrytuyu-lakom.jpg)
Paints
This type of product differs from the ones described above in that an opaque film is created on the surface. So if you need to get specific color, then this option is perfect.
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/pokrytie-vagonki.jpg)
There are also many composition options; before covering the lining in the house, you need to choose a specific solution:
- Oil paints are a traditional option that is being used less and less these days. The composition is good protective properties, but it is short-lived; after a year or two the coating needs to be renewed. Another disadvantage is the small selection of colors;
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryt-vagonku-snaruzhi.jpg)
- Alkyd paints are very popular because they adhere very well to the surface and do not lift the fibers of the material. The composition is distributed in a thin layer and forms a durable film that protects well from moisture and has good wear resistance;
- Acrylic compounds make it possible to create an attractive and durable coating for eurolining. They are absolutely harmless, which allows them to be used in premises for any purpose. The paints are water-based and come in a huge variety of shades. You can simply buy white composition and pigments and create your own unique color.
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-luchshe-pokryt-evrovagonku.jpg)
How to carry out the work correctly
Once you have chosen a specific option, you can get to work. Instructions for applying the composition yourself are as follows:
- Before covering the lining inside the house, you need to stock up on the required tools. You can apply paint or impregnation with a brush, with a roller, or with a spray gun. You will also need a brush to clean the surface, a ladder to reach the top; if you are painting the ceiling, it is better to take a table;
![](https://i2.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/chem-pokryvayut-vagonku.jpg)
- Next you need to prepare the surface. To do this, you need to clean it from dust and debris. If there are stains on the wood, they should be removed. It is unacceptable to work on wet substrates; if the material has not dried completely, then painting cannot be started;
- Covering the lining with the composition is done in different ways. If you do the bulk of the work with a roller, then the seams are painted over with a brush afterwards. If you work with a brush from start to finish, then you can go in order. The composition must be distributed in an even layer, the formation of smudges is not allowed, for this reason it is better to paint from top to bottom, then all the flaws will be removed;
![](https://i1.wp.com/beaver-news.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/valikom-krasitsya-rovnaya-poverxnost-shvy-dokrashivayutsya-kistyu.jpg)
- In order for the coloring quality to be as good as possible, you need to apply at least 2, or even 3 layers. Some, before covering the lining with paint or varnish, impregnate it with an antiseptic. But even in this case, the decorative coating is applied twice, this allows you to achieve a rich color and durability of the coating.
The question is often asked, how to renew varnished lining? There are two options: if the surface condition is good, then you can go over the layer with fine sandpaper and apply a fresh coat of varnish. If the lining is darkened or damaged, then it is better to repaint it; to do this, use a composition on the same base, then it will fit perfectly.

Painting lining at the dacha: types of coatings, interesting ideas, technology
The interior decoration of a country house must be durable, safe and durable. And if in winter it is empty and not heated, then it is also moisture resistant, since the risk of condensation in this case is very high. Not every material can cope with such tasks, however, if you properly process and decorate natural wood lining, it will last for decades.
Depending on how you paint the lining inside your country house, it will have a different appearance: it will retain its natural pattern and shade or take on a new one. And protective compounds for wood impregnation improve its performance characteristics.
Lining in the design of a country house
Why process and paint lining
Any wood material must be coated with protective compounds. Without them, the finish will quickly lose its appearance and become unusable. Paints, varnishes and impregnations perform several functions:
- Improves the appearance of the front surface of the lining;
- Prevents natural darkening of wood;
- Protects against mold, mildew and rot;
- Reduces the release of resin from coniferous trees;
- Improve water-repellent properties, thereby preventing swelling and deformation;
- Reduces the ability to ignite and spread fire.
Different types of coatings solve one or more problems. Therefore, for the best protection, you have to choose several compounds at once. How to paint the lining inside the house depends on exactly what functions are assigned to the coating and what appearance of the finish you would like to achieve in the end.
Types of compositions for lining
All wood treatment products are conventionally divided into protective and decorative. Some of them need to be combined, others can be used independently. Ideally, primary processing should be carried out before installing wooden lining, so the products will be protected from adverse factors from all sides. If the siding is already installed and has a coating, it will need to be removed or sanded.
Pay attention! Eurolining, if it is manufactured according to the standard, is already covered with protective or protective-decorative compounds.
Protective means
The primary objectives of these compounds are to protect the wood from pests, mold, mildew, moisture, temperature changes and extend the service life of the lining and finishing coating.
Coating the lining with a protective compound before installation
Common products for treating wooden surfaces:
- Primer. A popular base for decorative finishing. It improves adhesion, prevents moisture absorption and resin release, fills pores and hides minor irregularities. Compositions with an antiseptic additive are produced; they protect the tree from damage by mold and mildew.
- Oil-wax. Creates a surface from thick film, which perfectly repels water. This treatment is necessary for rooms with high humidity.
- Linseed oil. Penetrates wood deeply and hardens over time. Protects from moisture and gives the lining a distinct structure.
- Drying oil. Once a popular processing tool. Today it is being replaced by more advanced compounds. Improves the hydrophobicity of wood, but the coating quickly changes color and sticks.
- Bleach. The material is more often used topically, where there are defects such as blue spots or natural darkening.
- Antiseptics. Protect the surface from pests, fungus and mold. They are also used on affected areas of the finish.
- Fire retardants. Reduces the ability of wood to ignite and spread fire.
Oil-wax and linseed oil do not require additional processing, as they give the surface a distinct pattern, and the color can be tinted. It is also permissible not to paint drying oil, but it will have to be renewed frequently. Primer and antiseptics are used as a base for finishing.
Lining coated with drying oil
Decorative coatings
These compositions must be selected taking into account the condition of the finish. There are means that preserve and emphasize natural look wood, make the annual rings more pronounced, and add shade. Others, on the contrary, hide the design under a thick layer of color. The first ones should be used if the lining has no defects (grades Extra, A and AB) and old paint. Second, for products with numerous damages (grades B and C) and coatings that cannot be removed.
Transparent compositions for finishing wooden lining: varnishes, stain, some paints. Opaque: acrylic and oil paint, water-based.
Lucky
Acrylic, alkyd and water-based varnishes are most suitable for interior work. Completely preserve the natural appearance of wood. You can add pigment to the composition, which will give the lining a tint. The varnished surface has a glossy or matte texture. Additionally, they protect the finish from moisture, discoloration and minor mechanical damage. May contain antiseptic additives.
Varnish coating for lining
Decorative azure
Gives wood a distinct structure and any color. It does not form a film on the surface, but penetrates deeply. The material is transparent, so the lining underneath should be without significant defects. In addition to decorative, it performs a protective function.
Options for shades of decorative azure
stain
It has almost the same effect as decorative azure. Colors wood richly brown different shades. Stain is often used for artificial aging linings. It is important to consider that it does not protect enough from moisture.
Shades of stain
Acrylic water-based translucent paint
Forms a thin layer on the surface of the wood, through which the texture and natural shade of the wood are visible. Such paints hide minor finishing defects.
Translucent paint on lining
Oil paint
Thick opaque coating. Forms a film on the surface. Can have any shade. Maintains color and integrity for a long time. This lining paint requires updating approximately every 5 years. Has a pungent odor.
Coating the lining with oil paint
Acrylic paint
A more durable opaque finish than oil paint. It has virtually no odor and dries in a short time. Can create matte and glossy finish. Its only drawback is its high cost.
Matte acrylic paint finish
Water-based
The paints are odorless and dry quickly. They form a matte or semi-matte texture. Suitable for dry rooms only.
Water-based paint for decorating a country house
The video shows an example of a competent combination of protective and decorative coatings for lining applied at home, without the use of special tools.
A wide selection of coatings allows you to choose absolutely any color and texture for the lining. In a country house, it is better to give preference to the most durable and unpretentious compositions that do not have to be updated frequently.
If the panels have many defects or old coating, then dense, opaque paint cannot be avoided. Improve appearance base surface It is possible by removing the top layer of wood, but this is too labor-intensive and time-consuming.
Unusual combination of paint shades for lining
The colors and shades of the lining can be combined in the decoration of one room. This technique allows you to divide a spacious room into zones. Decorate or diversify the design, place accents.
Color accents in clapboard finishing
Due to the color of the finish, you can achieve some visual effects. Light shades expand the space, dark shades, on the contrary, make it smaller. White ceiling looks taller than brown.
The color scheme for the lining can match the palette of shades used in the interior or contrast.
Harmonious combination color palette textiles and walls
Lining processing technology
Protection and painting of the lining is carried out in several stages. The first one is preparation. If the finish is new, then before covering the lining, it is enough to clean its surface from dust with a solution of 5 liters of water and 150 grams. soda After drying, you can apply the first layer.
If there are old coatings, sanding with pumice or sandpaper will be required. It's better to do it grinder. The goal of this procedure is to create a rough texture that will easily adhere to coatings.
Cleaning walls of old paint with a sander
If thick paints are applied to the lining, they can be removed mechanically ( construction hairdryer and a spatula, grinder) or special chemical solutions. Both methods do not guarantee perfect result, but it's worth a try. This option is better than painting the clapboard inside the house directly over the old finish.
The coating may not be removed, but then it should be degreased. It is imperative to remove areas with crumbling paint, air cavities and clean until smooth.
If there are serious defects, such as fallen knots, it is necessary to fill the hole and clean it smooth.
Applying protection
If the coating could not be applied to an uninstalled lining, then the joints should be coated more thoroughly in order to treat as large an area as possible. The composition must be applied in a thin and uniform layer. To do this, you can use either a brush and roller, or mechanical tools. If the protection is applied in several layers, then it is important to dry each of them thoroughly before painting the lining with the next composition.
Coloring
The method of applying the topcoat depends on its type. General rules carrying out work:
- Use two brushes (wide for the main part, narrow for the joints) or a spray gun;
- Painting begins from the top so that random drops do not spoil the finished surface;
- Go through one section once, in a continuous line;
- Some varnishes and paints are applied in two or three layers, each of them must dry naturally within several days;
- It is better to make several thin layers than one thick layer;
- Only painted finishes should not be exposed to UV rays or sudden temperature changes.
In hard-to-reach places, you can use a foam sponge for painting. It is best to apply the composition to the entire area in a short time. If you need to take a break, the joint should be placed in an inconspicuous area.
Applying paint with a spray gun
For interior decoration of a country house, lining is one of the best options. She doesn't demand complex care, and it is enough to restore the surface once every 7-10 years (depending on the type of coating). If you treat it according to all the rules and taking into account the characteristics of operation, the material will last at least 25 years.

How to treat the lining inside the house? This question is often asked by owners who have used wood in the interior decoration of their home.
Today, processing lining inside the house is not a problem. You just need to choose the right protective coating that will suit a particular room.
Some are more suitable for rooms with high humidity, others perfectly protect boards from ultraviolet rays, and some generally increase the strength of wood and prevent the risk of premature abrasion.
But also an important factor in processing is that the defense should look good on the boards. It should not distort the natural structure of the tree. On the contrary, its task is to emphasize the naturalness of the material used and blend harmoniously with the rest of the interior.
Most often, the following substances are used to protect wood:
- Antiseptic
- Bio oil
- Primer
Types of varnishes for working on wood
If we talk specifically about how to treat the lining in the house, then the choice of protective mixtures is quite large.
1. Soil
This mixture is not only a complete primer, but also an excellent bio protective agent. Primer – antiseptic is suitable for processing both indoors and outdoors.
Moreover, the use of a primer is appropriate even on an affected tree. The primer, along with a textured coating that is designed to provide protection, will extend the life of the board and keep it neat and laid.
2. Protective and decorative
One of the main qualities of the mixture is that it gives desired color wooden surface. By the way, protective and decorative coatings are an innovation in the market of paints and varnishes.
But it is very important that even when treated with such a composition, the tree structure still remains visible.
They are very convenient to use, since you do not need to use a primer first, because they already contain antiseptics. Moreover, they are resistant to fading and temperature changes.
Some types are suitable for use on damp wood. They are great for interior and exterior work.
The final coating has a soft semi-matte tone. According to the manufacturers of these products, the warranty is 8 years.
3. Scuba gear
Continuing to discuss the topic of how to treat the surface inside the house, you should definitely pay attention to water-based products. For work inside the house, professionals recommend aqualak.
Pros of using a scuba tank:
- No smell
- Fast interlayer drying
- It contains no organic solvents
For external work, products with water-repellent additives are suitable, which protect wood from dirt and moisture. Of course, it is not in the budget class, but it provides the owner with durability and ease of maintenance.
4. Oils
Quite often, the surface of wood is treated with oils or their combined mixtures.
Oil coating provides protection against contamination, moisture and dust, due to the fact that it penetrates deep into the structure of the tree.
An important advantage when using varnish is also that there is no solvent aroma, and you can only smell the smell of the plant on which the oil is based. Moreover, this composition is very easily tinted, with which you can get the desired shade
Tools for painting operations
We answered the question of how to treat the lining, but there was one more question: how to treat the lining inside the house?
Its importance lies in the fact that all compositions are different in consistency, so you should pay special attention to the selection of tools so that applying the protective layer is convenient and effective.
An approximate list of what is needed when applying paint and varnish mixtures:
- Napkins
- Construction tape
- Scotch Brite
- Sandpaper (#240)
- Tray for paint or varnish
- Roller
- Brushes
Whitening
This process is the first step when painting with any composition.
It involves cleaning the boards from any contaminants.
If there are difficulties with selecting bleach, then it is best to use a special stain.
After the bleaching process is completed and the lining becomes a clean canvas, you can proceed to the second stage - priming. The third stage is applying paint.
Tools needed for whitening:
- Roller
- Tassels
- Stain (bleach)
- Solvent
- Gloves
- Eye protection glasses

We paint according to the rules
If the wooden surface has already been painted several times, then before applying a fresh layer of varnish, it is necessary to evaluate the quality.
If it is still good, then you can wipe it with a 2% soda solution.
To prepare such a solution you need 10 liters of heated water and 300 grams of soda.
After treatment with soda solution, work surface should be puttied and treated with drying oil. After this procedure, all wooden surfaces in the house will be significantly transformed.
If painting the lining inside the house is the first time, professionals advise adhering to a certain technology in this matter in order to avoid smudges and unevenness.
Paintwork products should be applied using bristle tips. It is very important that it is thin. Otherwise large number paint may become unusable. To prevent the lint from leaving a mark on the walls and ceiling being treated, it is better to treat them with a soap solution before starting painting.

Particular care should be taken when applying the final layer. To ensure an even coating, it is best to start applying the protective composition from the top. Hard-to-reach places, for example, frames, baseboards, and the space near radiators, are best painted with a brush that has a diameter of no more than 5 cm.
It is best to start painting the door from the paneled side.
A dry brush will help prevent paint smudges. Upward movements of the brush will remove unnecessary imperfections from the surface.

Cost of work
The price of painting lining per square meter is approximately 280 rubles.
One square meter of the lining itself will cost the buyer approximately 320 rubles. But the cost of the boards is significantly influenced by the wood from which they are made and its grade.
Varnish for treating wood can be bought for approximately 260 rubles per liter.
We hope that this article will help every owner paint the lining with high quality, as well as choose the right materials. Good luck with your work.
Products for covering lining inside the house
One of the popular options for finishing the surfaces of a wooden house or cottage is cladding with thin planks, known as lining. The result is a cozy feel for the rooms, allowing you to relax in a healthy, environmentally friendly environment.
Impregnation for lining inside the house, which can be purchased in specialized stores and applied in accordance with the manufacturers' instructions, helps ensure that the interior remains unchanged for a long time. There are other means that can be used to coat wood.
Why use impregnation?
Some owners have doubts about the need to impregnate wood paneling inside a suburban building. If the boards are not coated, changes will be noticeable on them after some time. With poor ventilation, a blue discoloration will appear on the lining, as a result of intense solar lighting it may turn dark gray.
The blueness is explained by the action of microorganisms, which can be gotten rid of with the help of active oxidizing agents, such as chlorine. The procedure is not very easy to perform and is accompanied by the release of an unpleasant odor.
Plaque that has turned gray from the sun can be removed by mechanical grinding of the lining, but positive effect that won't last long. It is more advisable to carry out the treatment immediately after finishing, so as not to have problems later.
In addition, the coating transforms the wood and makes the interior special. Lining coated with waterproof impregnation can last longer even in an irregularly heated, damp room.
Types of compositions
How to cover the lining inside a house is an easily resolved question, because there are many products on sale for different climatic zones and types of buildings.
Composite impregnations are designed to perform several functions, the main ones of which are the following:
- decreased flammability,
- protection against microbes,
- improvement of appearance,
- increasing mechanical strength.
There are products designed primarily to protect the lining, and compositions created for a decorative effect. Many drugs perform multiple functions equally successfully.
What is the best way to process it?
There are a large number of treatment products available on the market. wood materials. Information about the most popular drugs will help potential buyers make it easier to choose a purchase.
Fire retardants
The lining located inside the house next to heating devices must be protected from possible ignition. For this purpose, flame retardant impregnations are used, which are not easy to apply yourself.
It is much more convenient to buy clapboard for the dacha, pre-impregnated with fire-fighting substances. In rooms with a moisture concentration not exceeding 70%, the lining can be coated with solutions of moderate resistance. Inside the house, the applied composition will remain for a long time, it costs much less than a weather-resistant solution.
Antiseptics
A strong risk factor for wood damage is microbiological exposure. They get rid of it with the help of antiseptics. Antimicrobial solutions that can be used to impregnate wood cope with biological contaminants and prevent the emergence of new areas of mold and rot. Antiseptics have a pungent odor that does not disappear for a long time, and you need to pay attention to this when purchasing, having studied reviews of the product.
Preparations that cost more than conventional disinfectants can not only protect against microorganisms, but also at the same time improve the aesthetic impression and increase the ability to repel water molecules.
Stains
Special liquids based on water, alcohol or organic solvents that penetrate deep into the wood and create a specific color or shade are called stains. The term has a foreign synonym – beitz. The solutions do not protect, but only tint the wood, although there are special types of expensive stains with a pronounced protective effect.
Pay attention! In any case, after applying stain to the lining inside the dacha, it must be varnished on top. Otherwise, the tree will not retain its original appearance.
Sometimes wood planks have dark spots, the appearance of which remains a mystery. You can treat such areas with bleach, carefully selecting the concentration and exposure time. You can practice on lining waste, see how many tones the wood base is lightened by, and draw the appropriate conclusions.
Lucky
good protective effect varnishes have an effect on the lining inside a dacha or residential building. They can also be used to cover the lining to achieve a decorative effect. Acrylic-based varnish compositions decorate the surface well and create a biological barrier on it.
Due to the minimal allergenicity indoors, it makes sense to use aqualak. It takes longer to dry than solutions in organic liquids, but is safer for health. With aqualas you can create a completely or slightly matte, as well as a glossy surface.
If you add color to the solutions, you get a colored product with the desired shade. This composition will not last long on the outside, so it is not recommended for outdoor use. Water-based varnishes create a barrier to steam penetration, eliminating contamination of open pores.
Pay attention! Some modifications of aqualak contain antimicrobial additives, which significantly improves the safety of the lining inside the house.
Other compositions contain substances that neutralize the effects of UV rays. It makes sense to use such compositions on walls that are illuminated by the sun for most of the day.
Alkyd varnish solutions are extremely durable; after drying, the coating can last for 10 years. Usually, inside a wooden house or cottage, it is recommended to cover the floors with such compounds. Those who like constant color schemes for rooms can apply alkyd varnishes to the walls. If the desire to change the interior arises earlier, you can spread a different color of varnish on top.
Paints
A huge group of different wood paints can be used to cover the lining inside the cottage.
The “veterans” of the market are oil paints of all colors and shades, which last on a dry surface for more than 7 years. After the expiration date, the paint layer may become discolored and peel off, in which case the painting will have to be repeated. Pre-treatment of the base with drying oil improves the fixation of pigments on wood. Drying vegetable oils cover all pores with a polymer film, which impairs vapor permeability, but improves the quality of the coating.
Pay attention! Oil paints are the most cheap material for covering lining, which has disadvantages.
Due to clogging of the natural pores of wood, the indoor microclimate worsens. When painting, active evaporation of a solvent occurs bad smell. Vapors from organic liquids are harmful to health, so painting can only be done in summer with windows and doors open.
Acrylate paints are also made on a strong-smelling base; painting must be done carefully, with careful ventilation of the rooms. Acrylate paint is applied faster and easier than oil-based paints and forms a resilient, elastic coating that lasts a long time and is durable. The walls inside the dacha, painted with acrylics, withstand the winter cold well, even in the absence of heating for a long time.
Oils and waxes
In addition to drying oil, which is made from drying oils, other oil compositions that are well absorbed by wood are used to cover the lining inside the dacha. They form a matte or shiny surface when gently rubbed in and then polished. Waxes have a similar chemical structure, the difference lies in the replacement of the glycerol ester with a higher monohydric alcohol.
Waxes are very durable and form a shiny, smooth surface when properly distributed and applied to the lining. Wax coatings can last for decades in cases where there are no large mechanical loads. Wax glaze is sold in a ready-to-use condition. Hard waxes must be softened by melting in a water bath before application. In order for the wax to be distributed evenly, the lining should be pre-primed.
A good result will be obtained if you cover the boards with a mixture of wax and oils that combine the advantages of both components.
Features of applying impregnation
There are several types of lining; they differ in the number and shape of joints on the resulting surface. Depending on this you will need different quantities efforts to prepare it.
In any case, before covering the lining with any means, you need to carefully examine all the boards. If there are dark spots, local lightening is carried out with bleach. Then the entire surface can be lightly washed with a diluted soda solution and wait until the water has completely evaporated. Only after this can the wood be treated with primer and the base compound or immediately with impregnation.
The cracks are covered with wood putty, everything is thoroughly cleaned with sandpaper.
To more effectively secure the decorative layer, the wood is primed. Very carefully you need to distribute the primer mass in the seams. To apply primer over the main part of the area, you can use a spray gun; at the joints it is better to prime with a brush.
Each product has its own application characteristics, which are necessarily described in the manufacturer’s recommendations. The accompanying documents must be carefully studied and the compositions prepared in accordance with the instructions. All products are applied in several stages; each subsequent stage can be performed only after the surface has dried, and the final layer must be the thinnest. Following these rules will help you obtain reliable and beautiful coating.
The best way to treat lining indoors
How to treat lining inside a house is a question that worries many who use this product to decorate various rooms. Of course, the material can be left in its original form, but then it must be taken into account that the service life of the coating will be only 5-6 years. This perspective does not seem entirely appropriate.
Why is this necessary?
It is necessary to process the material in order to increase its operational properties and maintain an attractive appearance (enhance the visual impression). It should be noted that working with lining consists of several stages, each of which is important.
So, lining processing is necessary to improve the following characteristics:
- Fire resistance. This characteristic allows you to increase the period of flame spread over the surface, the time of ignition, or completely prevent the occurrence of a fire.
- Protecting the product from mold and fungi, which lead to destruction. This indicator should be especially increased in places of high humidity.
- Increased resistance to mechanical damage. This property is necessary for those areas that are constantly exposed.
- Immunity to ultraviolet radiation. Allows you to minimize fading and drying out.
![](https://i0.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/img8qjpg-150.jpg)
It is impossible not to note the decorative factor. It consists in applying a substance to the surface of the material that improves its decorative characteristics. Moreover, the surface can remain the same as it was originally, or be completely transformed.
Various types of processing compounds
The modern market for construction and finishing materials offers a wide selection of different compositions that can be used for this type of work. Processing of lining inside the house is carried out independently, without the use of special equipment.
![](https://i2.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgi5wxv-151.jpg)
Note! To get a good result, you need to purchase products that have the necessary certificates and are also produced by trusted manufacturers. The fact is that there are many fakes on the market that are not only useless, but also harmful to the human body.
Antiseptic solutions
Such substances are used to protect wood from the formation of living organisms (mold, fungi, insects and even mice). The material is treated with this preparation before facing, due to the fact that it must be applied to the entire surface of the product. This procedure is especially indispensable when it is planned to use lining on objects with high level humidity.
![](https://i2.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgy7but-152.jpg)
It should be borne in mind that this solution performs exclusively protective functions. Therefore, it is applied before using decorative components. When choosing antiseptics, pay attention to the place of application. The label must indicate that the product is intended for indoor use.
The work is performed as follows:
- Each fragment is processed separately. Treating the surface on only one side will not bring the desired effect.
- The tools used are a brush and a roller.
- The antiseptic is applied to the entire surface in a thin and uniform layer. It is advisable to treat all areas - recesses, corners.
- Each element is left for some time - until completely dry. It is necessary to avoid allowing the material to come into contact with each other during drying.
![](https://i1.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/img85ta5-153.jpg)
This produces wood that will be resistant to various microorganisms, breeding in humid environments.
Fire retardants
These compounds are necessary to reduce the likelihood of fire. This material is quite difficult to apply. Impregnation of the lining with fire retardants will be much more effective if it was done at the enterprise. Although self-application of the substance cannot be ruled out.
The composition is divided into two groups, which differ in their mode of action:
- Fire retardants that prevent combustion by releasing non-flammable gases.
- Substances that form a protective film on the surface of a product.
![](https://i2.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgng6vs-154.jpg)
You need to understand that these solutions cannot completely protect against fire. They only increase the time required for the treated elements to ignite.
To know! Now there are solutions that combine the actions of an antiseptic and a fire retardant. This is a combined composition that has a combination of their positive properties.
Primers
The primer is applied before applying decorative substances to the lining. This is necessary in order to increase the adhesion of materials, as well as reduce their consumption.
![](https://i1.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgg6nfo-155.jpg)
The external parts of the product are processed. It must be taken into account that priming can be single-layer or two-layer. This depends on whether the treatment was carried out with other compounds, as well as what type of wood is used.
Note! Currently, primers combine a mass positive qualities. They not only reduce the consumption of subsequent materials, but also serve to protect against fungus and mold.
stain
Stain is used as an impregnation if colorless varnish or wax is planned to be used in the future. It evens out the color of the wood and protects it from changes. Currently, this material has another protective property. It includes antiseptic functions.
![](https://i2.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgq85kk-156.jpg)
Before work, you need to decide on the choice of solution that can be used on different basis(alcohol, water and oil). The composition is available in finished or dry form. But the application method is completely the same.
Wax
The main task of wax is to protect the surface from damage, as well as to eliminate the possibility of toxic fumes. The last factor applies to cases where lining is used for cladding saunas and baths. That is, it is necessary to prevent the release of toxic substances when exposed to high temperatures.
![](https://i0.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imghf5yh-157.jpg)
A purely decorative effect cannot be ruled out. The treated surface acquires a deep and even color.
The work is carried out according to the following principle:
- A certain amount of material is applied to the surface.
- Rub it in with a soft cloth until completely penetrated.
- Several layers should be applied.
Some manufacturers indicate additional conditions, which are necessary for applying wax.
Varnish
Varnish is necessary to give the surface a beautiful look and protect it from damage. It is better to treat the internal perimeter of premises with water-based acrylic compounds. This solution can be transparent or translucent. If required, it can be painted by adding color.
![](https://i2.wp.com/derevyannie-doma.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/imgvpcou-158.jpg)
The following application technology looks very nice:
- Initially, the first layer is applied - a completely transparent composition.
- The second layer is a translucent solution. It forms an interesting shade.
This principle allows you to preserve the natural texture of the wood.
Paints can also be used, but they are rarely used, since they completely hide the natural surface of the material.
One of the most popular types of wooden finishing materials is lining. It has a different profile, due to which the surface has different type- from a smooth wall with small grooves, to waves of different sizes. Just wooden walls They do not fit into all interiors, so there is often a need to paint the lining indoors - at home or in the country.
How to treat lining inside a house
In general, many people believe that it is better not to treat the lining indoors with anything. Maybe so, but not in every climate and room it will retain its original appearance for a long time. If the level of ventilation is insufficient, the wood may turn blue; if it is exposed to the sun, it becomes dark gray.
Blue discoloration can only be combated with biological means - chlorine or active oxygen, and then definitely impregnated with protective compounds, and maybe even painted. It is a little easier with grayed wood: by removing the top layer by sanding you will again get beautiful color, but without UV protection it won’t last long either. That’s why they decide to paint the lining inside the house or cottage.
One more point: not everyone likes wood in the interior. It's just that sometimes people get tired of looking at her. I just want a smooth, colored surface. This also happens, and often. In this case, look for opaque paint. Select characteristic effects as desired.
The inside of the lining is painted with opaque paints also because wood in its natural color is not compatible with all styles. But sometimes you want high-tech, for example. In this case, paint with metal particles or mother-of-pearl (for example, Lignovit Platin) is suitable.
All compositions for protecting wood can be fairly roughly divided into six main groups:
- Protective compounds. Available for exterior and interior use. Compositions for external use additionally include ultraviolet protection, which prevents or slows down the process of photoaging of wood - discoloration to gray. So if you need impregnation for the lining on the balcony, and it faces south or east, you need a composition for external work. Just note that some of them paint the surface pink or green is the result of a chemical reaction. Read the description carefully, because the resulting color can only be painted over with opaque paints or a very dark tint.
- Tinting compounds or stains. They do not paint over the texture of the wood, but give it some kind of shade. At the same time, a film is not created on the surface, the wood does not lose its properties - it remains vapor-permeable. Tinting compositions contain pigment and can be lightly or heavily pigmented. If you want to have a surface with a pronounced wood structure, take a slightly pigmented composition. You may need a lot of layers, but you can control the degree of “shading” of the wood.
- Lucky. Today, water-based varnishes or aqualacs are more popular for lining walls or ceilings. They can be matte, semi-matte or glossy. Many people have the opportunity to add color and change the color at the same time. Unlike traditional varnishes, water-based varnishes do not close pores - the film on the surface remains vapor-permeable, but protects against dirt absorption. Many manufacturers add UV filters and bactericidal components. Such paints and varnishes are good for balconies or in unheated rooms with periodic visits - in dachas and bathhouses.
The varnish can be glossy, matte or semi-matte, or it can give color - pigmented
- Paints. This group includes compounds that create a dense film on the surface, through which the structure of the wood is not visible. The group is extensive, with different properties and price ranges - from traditional oil enamel to latex and acrylate enamel.
- Wood oils. Some are transparent and some have pigment. Unlike varnishes, they do not create a dense film on the surface, but are absorbed into the fibers. Good compositions act similarly to a varnish coating, protecting against abrasion and dirt absorption. Only oils do not have a bright glossy shine - a matte or slightly shiny surface, like silk. This is a great way to preserve wood. Using specific application techniques, pigmented wood oils can highlight the texture (see below).
- Wax-based compositions. There are three types of wax: solid, liquid and water. Before use, hard wax is heated to liquid state, liquid and water (wax glaze) are ready for use. Wax protection is traditional and very effective, and new technologies make the process much easier. The disadvantage of wax is that it is quite difficult to apply evenly, but it fits well on a pre-primed surface.
This division is arbitrary: there are many mixed compounds that can be classified into at least two groups. So there are impregnations that can be tinted, and there are paints with protective properties. The difference is in the effectiveness of the protection. Impregnations primarily protect the wood, and imparting color is a secondary task. With paints it's the other way around. Their main task is to create a beautiful coating, and protection is a concomitant effect. If you need immediately and good protection and a high-quality coating, take the impregnation without tinting, and after drying, apply paint.
Another example of a mixed composition is oils with wax. These compositions combine the properties of both oils and wax, due to which the wood retains its appearance for a longer time.
The question of which group to give preference is up to everyone to decide for themselves. Different tools solve different problems, and it is important to choose the right properties that you need first.
How to properly paint the inside of the lining: technology
To paint lining in “dry” rooms inside the house, you can use any type of paint. Here you simply decide on the requirements for decorative appearance surfaces. If the lining is dry, it can not be impregnated with protective compounds, or you can choose paint/varnish/wax with appropriate additives. You can paint it only on one side, leaving the back side untreated.
If the lining will be used in wet or unheated rooms, on the balcony, you must first soak it well with protective compounds on all sides, maybe twice. Only after the impregnation has dried can it be painted, varnished, in general, given decorative properties. Another point: when installing the lining on a wall or ceiling, it has to be cut into pieces. Places of cuts in damp rooms must also be coated with the composition. It is not necessary to wait until it dries, but it is necessary to process it.
There is one very important nuance, which many amateur decorators overlook. If you want to get a professional-level painting of the lining, you need to process each board separately: sand, paint, dry, and only then assemble the surface from the already painted lining. That is, mount already fully processed boards on the wall or ceiling. Only with this approach will the surface of the lining have the same color from any point.
It’s difficult to paint the entire surface of a clapboard wall well
If you paint an already assembled surface, unpainted areas remain in the grooves and recesses, it is difficult large areas grind. Perfect flat surface definitely won't get it. The quality of finishing in this option is not above average. It is permissible to paint a finished surface if you are renewing the paint job. This must be done at different intervals, depending on the operating conditions and the properties of the paintwork material.
Correctly, the painting technology looks like this.
![](https://i2.wp.com/stroychik.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/chem-pokrasit-vagonku-8.jpg)
There can be many layers: it depends on the hiding power of the paint and on what effect you want to get. But in any case, one rule remains: there should be little composition on the brush. The exception is impregnation or primer. They are applied with a well-moistened brush, but only those without pigment. When applying pigmented protective compounds The rules for paints apply - the minimum required amount of composition can be shaded well.
Sometimes, even with careful rubbing of the paint, stains are clearly visible. This is not a bad paint, but the properties of wood: in some places the pores absorb better, in others worse. In order to achieve an even color in this case, the surface is first primed. You can use any wood primer or colorless matte varnish (can be water-based). After drying, the surface is sanded (yep, again) and then the required number of layers of paint are applied. Only in this case, after the first layer of paintwork, grinding is rarely required, and if necessary, then in some places, more often on a tenon or groove.
Watch the video to see how to evenly apply glaze, oil or wax.
If furniture quality painting is required, there are even more layers: first a stain is applied, then two layers of primer. After drying, it is sanded until the surface is completely matte, first with grain 280, then 320, after removing dust, it is applied finishing layer- varnish. An example of such work is in the video.
Painting wood while maintaining texture
A pronounced wood pattern can be achieved using glaze, pigmented oil or wax. These compounds apply quite tightly, almost painting over the structure of the wood fibers. Any of the compositions described above can be applied with a brush or roller.
When applying paintwork materials, take very little, first applying them in fragments along the entire length of the lining. Then, using a brush or roller, the applied strokes are shaded over the entire surface. After leaving them to soak for 5-10 minutes, to reveal the texture, take a soft, lint-free cloth and remove most of the oil. As a result, the pattern appears much brighter than in its original state: the grooves retain more There is almost no pigmented product left on the protruding parts. The result is a pronounced texture. This technique is also called brushing or texturing the lining. In interiors, wood processed in this way looks very decorative: both on the walls and on the ceiling.
The process can be observed in the video. Three samples were painted: two with the same oil with pigment, one with colorless. 5 minutes after painting, one of the pigmented blanks is wiped to reveal the design. To preserve the wood after the pigment has dried (24 hours or more, read on the packaging), the lining is coated with two layers of colorless oil (glaze, wax). In places intensive use You can also coat it with matte varnish.
How to paint lining like bleached oak
It is often necessary to paint wood white, but so that the veins are visible. They also say to create the effect of bleached oak. There are several ways:
![](https://i2.wp.com/stroychik.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/chem-pokrasit-vagonku-3.jpg)
It’s difficult to say which composition to choose - you need to try. It is advisable to paint the lining with several compositions and compare the results. Effect when used different means slightly different, but still very dependent on the wood. The reviews are also very different - some whitened with tinting, others with oil. Soils are rarely used for these purposes, but mainly because not everyone knows their properties.
Secrets of decorative wood staining: techniques and tricks
City dwellers want to preserve the natural color of wood as much as possible. For those for whom wood in the house is a boring everyday thing, paint the interior lining in some unusual color. Modern paintwork materials allow you to achieve different effects. For example, textured or brushed lining, but in two colors. This technique is often used.
Brushed lining in two colors is an excellent choice for decorating walls
The trick is to apply two layers different colors. The first layer is applied dark color, the second - light or brighter. After playing with colors and the order of their application, you can create your own version. Watch the video - how to get lining brushed in two colors.
Painting in two colors may not be the same. You can make the recesses a darker color, and only slightly tint the face (front part) or do everything exactly the opposite. You will get a striped wall made of clapboard - the effect of a slatted wall.
How to paint lining inside a house: ideas
Painting techniques and methods are great, but how? Just. There are quite a few interesting options. The designers' latest finds are a clapboard wall in a room with smooth walls. It looks creative and interesting. And most often such a wall is made using the brushing technique.
An interesting effect is achieved by combining the fittings different thicknesses— in the photo, thin boards are inserted between wide boards. Moreover, they are painted in different shades of the same color. The combination turns out interesting and fresh.
