The main enemy of the metal is corrosion. Steel pipes need high-quality anti-corrosion protection, as they are constantly in contact with condensate and water. The easiest way is to staining, in addition, it allows you to improve their appearance. Today we will find out which paint can be painted steel pipes, because any composition is kept on the metal with constant fluctuations in temperature, and how to spend staining.
To begin with, talk about choosing funds that are suitable for water supply and heating pipes. Remember that you need to buy paint, which is endowed with anti-corrosion properties, does not yellow and does not disappear over time, not toxic, and is also resistant to high temperatures (about 100 degrees). Look at the packaging: it usually has an appropriate mark.
- Acrylic enamel. When staining, you will feel the smell of the solvent, as it is manufactured on the basis of organic solvents. However, you will be satisfied with the result: glossy shine is guaranteed as a long coating service.
- Alkyd enamel. There is also an unpleasant fragrance when working with a substance that may remain some time during the operation of the heating system in the future, so its use is advisable in a non-settletous house. Despite this, the composition is popular with consumers due to a wide range of colors and creating a durable coating, which will be resistant to abrasion and mechanical damage.
- Water-dispersion paint. The choice of this substance is fully justified, as it does not have a specific smell and quickly dries. However, when using it, the surface must be pre-primed.
- Oil paint. She did not receive enough propagation, as it can get dark quickly.
Among the manufacturers of paints for pipes are allocated firms of Holland, Germany and Sweden. Comprehensive quality features such compounds: enamel Radiator Paint, Enamel Hayzkorelak, paint Mipaterm 600 and elementfarg alkid.
- To do this, calculate the surface area of \u200b\u200bthe pipe, multiplying their length to the diameter of the pipeline and the number of pi.
- It should be borne in mind that the paint is applied in 2 layers, so multiply the area to 2.
- In the store, pay attention to the packaging where the manufacturer specifies the approximate consumption of substance per square meter.
- Exercise the work area to the paint consumption to find out its required amount.
In the picture, the formula is indicated as s side.
- At the first stage, it is necessary to remove the old coating from the pipe to stripping the presence of rust. If this is not done, then the new layer will not last long, and work will have to do again from scratch. To do this, it is best to adapt a metal brush on which rigid bristles, and to take a solvent as a supplement. Be sure to dress the mask, since dust will be a lot, as well as gloves. To facilitate the procedure for removing the old paint, warm the surface using a construction hairdryer. At the same time, it is important not to overheat the threaded connections so that the winding does not burn, otherwise the thread will flow.
- After stripping, degrease the surface using special compositions to remove the remaining dust and dirt. And you can move to applying the primer.
- The primer composition is used to increase the protection of the metal surface from rust and better and smooth paint coating. Make a thin layer, preferring the primer on an alkyd basis. Before staining the pipes, wait until the primer dry.
- Protect the walls and floor before starting work. For this, the plastic film is best suited - secure it with painting scotch. But attempts to use the newspaper on the wall are not crowned with success, since the drips will most likely remain.
- To cover the paint pipeline, we take a roller with a foam nozzle, since when using the can, the paint consumption will significantly increase.
- When painting in hard-to-reach places, a narrow brush will help.
- Painting the heating pipes better before the start of the heating period, when there are no hot water in them. However, it is allowed to handle paint and a hot surface. It should be remembered: it will quickly dry, which can trigger the formation of an uneven coating with traces from the brush, so it is better to replace it with a paint.
- We apply a thin layer of paint in the direction from top to bottom, rubbing at the same time.
- Since each subsequent layer reduces the efficiency of heat transfer of the heating system, paint is applied to the pipes in 2 layers.
- The second layer can only be done after the first will dry.
- If the layer is thick, and the paint is very thick, it must be pre-diluted to avoid untidy ilk.
- In the event of irregularities and bubbles, it is necessary to get rid of them, otherwise there will be no paint on these sections for a long time and it will quickly suck, but corrosion will arise in a matter of days.
When painting cold water pipes, they are advised to pre-dry, as condensate is constantly present on them. For this, do not use the water from the crane for some time so that it will acquire the temperature of the room, and the whole moisture is evaporated. If you wish, you can use the fan, since with a strong air flow, the moisture will evaporate faster than the condensate will fall out.

Let's speak honestly, this Sathya wanders from the site to the site simply copying without looking at the text, and for good materials described here do not apply for hot water and heating pipes.
Let's see: at the photo of the CERT 600 degrees, do you have on a pipe of 600 degrees? Of course not this enamel for gas ducts, furnaces and places in contact with an open flame, further enamel Radiator Paint, Enamel Hayzkordlak, are used for cast-iron surfaces of heat radiators, and this is a completely different knee, it is not a steel pipe, cast iron corrosion is minimal compared to steel, then ElementFarg Alkid withstands a maximum of 90 degrees, and reacts poorly to the thermal expansion of the pipe, again it is better for the radiator, but in no way for the pipe. For pipes it is necessary to use other industrial paints. There is such a standard Hundred 70238424.27.060.002-2008 pipelines of thermal networks. Corrosion protection. Organization of operation and maintenance. Norms and requirements. So reading it and comparing with the Federal Law No. 190 on the heat supply we come to the conclusion that you need to paint the mastic vector or compositions of the highway. Only then can you get a durable (up to 25 years) anti-corrosion coating that will protect your pipe for long and many years, ideally from overhaul before overhame, and with the materials presented in the article are preparing to be presented in touch every two years.
by the way, on the last photo just painted with the vector. You can ask how I determined, och. just, firstly the color, pronounced red-brown, in the second pipe lies not in the apartment and the heat chamber or the basement of a residential building, which means painted or heat energy or communal workers, and they use regulatory documents, this is a partner in his apartment who wants , and they have clearly regulated materials
thanks for the information
