The diatom mud should be prepared with materials that meet the design requirements. It should have a product certificate and test report, and the environmental protection indicators should meet the relevant national standards. There should be a storage validity period and product certificate, and the variety and color should meet the design requirements.
Tools: Prepare at least one mixer bucket, mixing bucket and water bucket, foam spatula, dust removal and polishing scraper, small brush, small spatula, towel, at least two ladders, multi-tooth tools, bark stick, tape measure, infrared measuring instrument for large area Measuring indoor air formaldehyde detector, special mulch film, overalls, shoe covers, masking paper, imported for modeling and domestically produced to protect the corners, etc. If there are construction patterns and paint, you need to bring related tools and equipment such as air compressor, inkjet connection line, etc.
When preparing for painting operations, operators should wear corresponding labor protection equipment.
Construction wall conditions requirements
Ensure that the base surface is flat, dense, clean, and the yin and yang angles and lines are horizontal and vertical. Construction is prohibited on frozen and water-seeping walls
All plastering operations are completed, and the yin and yang of the pipe openings passing through the wall are prohibited. Corners and other places should be plastered, leveled, rested and fully dried in advance. Wall cracks should be dealt with in advance
Kick flat the protruding parts on the surface such as concrete lintels, beams, gaskets, beams, concrete columns and beams. The holes for feet, hand holes and exhaust gas should be blocked tightly. Exposed steel bars, lead wire heads and wood should be removed and rust-proofed. Window sills should be patched up, and the junctions between walls and floor beams should be patched up with sloping bricks
Bases that are hollow or cracked must be treated in advance. After cleaning, apply putty twice to the base.
Construction environmental conditions requirements
The wall temperature should be above ℃, the relative air humidity should not be greater than ℃, the wind force during construction should not be greater than level. If it is lower than +℃, construction should be stopped
In summer, construction should not be carried out when the temperature is above +℃. If construction is necessary, shading measures should be taken to avoid direct sunlight
Construction should not be carried out on rainy days. If construction is necessary, it should be covered with rainproof cloth. Protect.
Construction process
Lay the special mulch film, protect the existing finished products before construction, and protect areas other than the construction surface in advance
Use a small spatula to handle the flatness of the wall
Use domestic textured paper to protect the baseboards and sockets near the door and corners
Stir diatom mud in the bathroom. Unpack the diatom mud box, open the inner package and pour it into the clean bucket prepared in advance. Use another bucket to collect the appropriate amount of clean water. Pour the clean water into the previous diatom mud material bucket, add water according to the proportion and stir. The wire is connected to the socket, hold the mixer tightly and put it into the bucket to stir. After mixing, use a small spatula to dig out some material vertically to see if it slowly falls down. If it flows down quickly, the material is too thin, such as If it does not fall off, it is too thick. You should continue to add water or ingredients, and stir again until it is evenly mixed and the consistency is moderate.
After the construction is completed, go to the bathroom to rinse all tools and items and then require the customer's signature for confirmation
Other matters needing attention
Diatom mud should be waterproof and moisture-proof during storage and transportation. Avoid placing it directly on the wet ground
The effective storage period of diatom mud is one year. It should be used up as soon as possible after opening. No other ingredients should be added
Prepare the finished product before diatom mud construction. Protection work, pre-curing materials for protection in places other than the construction surface
When blending diatom mud materials, add water in strict accordance with the prescribed proportions, and stir thoroughly with an electric mixer to avoid color difference in the finish. At the end of the construction, each color of silicone A small amount of algae mud is reserved for customers. In order to prevent subsequent construction and maintenance, the newly adjusted color will have errors
Bases with hollows or cracks must be treated in advance. If necessary, the base should be fully oiled or pre-scraped with paint.
Avoid direct sunlight exposure during diatom mud construction, and be careful not to use air conditioning fans or open windows for ventilation. Drying too fast increases the difficulty of texture construction
It usually takes hours for diatom mud to dry completely, so do not touch it within hours. After an hour, you can use a spray bottle to sprinkle a small amount of water, and after drying, use a clean towel or sponge to foam to remove surface floating materials.
