Ceramic tile seams Everyone must be familiar with the effect after the process, so the most critical question is, what should we do before doing ceramic tile seams? Of course the most important thing is cleaning. Zhong Taojun would describe it like this, just like girls will do cleaning work before putting on makeup, clean the skin, so that the makeup effect will be better, and the effect of the makeup will be more amazing! If you describe it this way, everyone will understand it more thoroughly!
Before doing the joint construction, clean the gaps between the tiles first to ensure that the gaps between the tiles are clean and dust-free, so that the quality of the joints can be guaranteed. Why do we need to clean the seams before making beautiful seams? In fact, the reason why the seams must be cleaned before making the seams is mainly because the seams have very high requirements for the construction of the seams. The seams must be constructed in a dust-free environment. This is why the seams must be cleaned first.
New house decoration will produce a lot of garbage, dust, etc., which will have a great impact on the gaps between ceramic tiles, especially the wood chips produced by carpentry and the dust after polishing imitation porcelain, which pollute the gaps between ceramic tiles the most. of. You can imagine that the gaps between ceramic tiles are filled with sawdust. Can they be used to make beautiful joints? Is the beautiful seam effect good?
Cleaning the seams before making seams is nothing more than two things: ensuring the quality of the seams, ensuring the effectiveness of the seams, and extending the service life of the seams.
How to clean the gaps between ceramic tiles?
Prepare seam cleaning tools; seam cleaning knife, spatula, electric seam cleaning machine, vacuum cleaner, rag, etc. Among them, the best seam cleaning knife is an extra-large utility knife. The knife is wide and thick, and there is only a small amount of cement in the tile gap. Next, it is quite effective at cleaning cement.
Cleaning ceramic tile jointsStep 1: First move large objects on the floor to areas where they will not affect the gap between ceramic tiles, and use a broom to sweep away coarse garbage on the floor. Pay attention;< span>Step 2: Don’t be too busy cleaning the seams. First, check all the tiles to see if any of them are damaged. If you find any damaged tiles, immediately take a photo with your mobile phone, or take a video and send it to Owners, avoid unnecessary trouble when the owner checks and accepts the joints after the joints are completed, thinking that you damaged the tiles.
When cleaning the gaps between ceramic tiles, the blade should be at a 45-degree angle along the edge of the tiles.Gently scrape the edge of the tile from top to bottom, left to right, in order to remove the black stains on the edge of the tile. Remember, be sure to scrape off any black stains to avoid black edges appearing on the seam sealant after the seam is done.
Let me tell you a tip: When the gap between the tiles is not filled with cement and the depth of the gap is 2mm, you only need to scrape clean both sides of the gap between the tiles. Many times, what affects the beauty of the seams is none other than the black stains on both sides of the ceramic tile seams. As long as you scrape off the black stains, the finished seam sealer will not have black edges.
Warm reminder: When encountering ceramic tiles and wood grain tiles, if there is a lot of cement in the gap, do not use a knife to clean the cement, otherwise it will easily collapse. Porcelain, remember.
After scraping all the tile gaps to remove stains, use cement to absorb the cement, sand, dust, etc. in the gaps, and then use a semi-dry wet towel to wipe the tile gaps again, mainly to wipe the tiles clean Floating dust on the edge of the gap. Remember, don’t be too lazy to steal. You must wipe it with a semi-dry wet towel, and wipe every gap clean. Otherwise, there will be floating dust on the edges of the gaps, and the seam sealant will rise when the seams are pressed. As a result, the grout and the tiles will not stick to each other.
As long as these steps are completed, the ceramic tile gaps will be completely cleaned. This is also a necessary process for making beautiful and clearing seams, and should be strictly implemented.
If you don’t clean the gaps between the ceramic tiles and apply the caulking agent directly, will it have any impact on the caulking agent?
Zhong Taojun wants to tell you: Yes, if the seams are not clear, just do the seams directly, which will not only affect the appearance of the seams, but also affect the appearance of the seams. Beautiful, but seriously, it will directly cause the seaming agent to fall off.
In fact, it is not difficult to find that in reality, many seams will fall off soon after they are finished. In fact, this has a lot to do with seam cleaning. If there is floating dust, even if the caulking agent does not fall off at the time, the caulking agent will fall off when it expands due to thermal expansion and contraction after solidification. That’s all Zhong Taojun’s sharing today. If you like it, don’t you want to share it with your little hands?
