What to use to paint hallways in our new house? We would like to use a brown colour shade.
As you did not specify the desired intensity of the brown shade, we recommend two products.
If the house is new, we assume is has thermal insulation and that you do not have any problems with thermal bridges. In this case, we recommend using SPEKTRA LATEX MATT. All more intense and darker brown shades are sensitive to the touch of a finger as they leave white spots on the surface. As the paint has a smooth film, it is sufficient to wipe the surface with a moist cloth only.
For light brown shades, you could also use the interior SPEKTRA PREMIUM washable paint.
I painted metal doorframes with TESSAROL acrylic enamel, and walls with SPEKTRA LATEX paint. As I did not protect some parts of the doorframes well enough, I got some Spektra LATEX paint on them. How to clean them? I tried with water, but it does not work.
Based on what you wrote, the only possible solution is for you to remove the stains with sanding paper, and apply TESSAROL acrylic enamel once again. If the standard interior wall paint SPEKTRA Classic Plus had been used, you could easily clean the paint with water. Spektra LATEX paints are more high-quality coatings that can no longer be removed with water once dry.
How often is it necessary to refresh the paintwork on the metal structure of a fence that was painted with TESSAROL?
There are several factors influencing the durability of the coating on the iron fence.
1. exposure of the fence to weathering
2. selection of the coating system and the number of coats
3. a suitable preparation of the surface beforehand (removal of impurities and rust)
The paintwork must be renovated as soon as you notice there is rust or that the coating is peeling off. If you only want to refresh the shade, you can also apply it earlier.
Shade refreshment procedure:
Slightly sand the old coating and apply 1 coat of TESSAROL enamel.
Remedial treatment procedure for coatings that have already peeled off:
Remove the rust and apply 1 coat of TESSAROL primer for iron and 2 coats of TESSAROL enamel onto a clean surface.
