How to make a bulk sex?

One of the modern floor coating technologies is the bulk floor. At first glance, the technology seems incomprehensible and challenging, but it will not really require great efforts at home. In this article, we will tell you how without any problems to make the filler field at home, using the basic rules of technology. All consumables can be purchased in specialized construction stores.

1
The advantages of bulk floors

ease of application in the shortest possible time;
lack of seams on the coating;
easy cleaning surface;
strength and durability of the material;
a wide range of colors.

2
Disadvantages of polymeric grounds

high costs for preparing the base under the fill;
when used in residential areas - mandatory sound insulation and insulation;
high cost of consumables.

Formation of the base

The main rule of the fill of the bulk sex is a qualitative basis, which should be durable and dry. A double cement or concrete screed, chipboard sheets or a wooden floor covered with insulation suitable for the base.

Align the old screed, cracks close up with a fresh solution, cut off the perforator.
Wooden floors restore, change spoiled boards, cracks fill in joinery and sealant.
You can also use special levels that are 4 and more quickly referred to compared with drying cement or concrete tie.
Rivisors can be self-leveling or ordinary bulk. Frozening the first takes place after 15-20 minutes and does not require additional impact on alignment. In the second case, you need to use lighthouses.
To frost these types of solution, in no case can be used to be used, the room should be without drafts.
The optimal temperature for pouring from 5 ° C to 20 from heat, without sudden drops.
Humidity should not exceed 60%.

Types of use of bulk coatings

Thin finishing layer The thickness of 0.5 millimeters is poured, on a fresh cement or concrete screed, which before you need to be covered with a primer for a better bond with liquid linoleum. You can also treat a large grinding circle and after the primer.

Bulk floor separated from the base base with waterproofing film Install on a wooden floor or on a lifting layer to 1-2 centimeters. This processing is used to prevent wood moving or pulling out moisture screed.

Bulk floating type floor Used for coatings that, with sharp change in temperature or enhance humidity, can be changed in a linear direction (laminate, linoleum or parquet). It also preferences are preferred due to the thickness of the coating 2-2.5 centimeters, which does not allow to solve without defects. For this type of bulk gender, the separation layer (waterproofing) is also used, which is laid by the 8-10 centimeters strips.

Step-by-step instruction of the filling in bulk sex

The solution needs to be prepared strictly according to the instructions. In no case cannot disrupt the proportions specified on the package, subsequently, the deterioration of the quality of the coating or the change in the characteristic of operation may occur. Also, you need to remember that the solution for 30-40 minutes begins to stick, so read the instructions on the package.

We recommend, in the process of filling the bulk gender to lick several assistants and distribute duties in advance. This will eliminate the emergence of problems in the process of work.

Sequencing

First, it is necessary to establish limiters in the doorway (rack), as well as in the case of using several stages of fill;
The finished mixture is poured first near the walls opposite the entrance, no more than 50 centimeters width;
We distribute a spatula or iron uniformly solution, in parallel pouring the second strip, and so act in the remainder of the room;
Further, moving in shoes with the piping spikes on the sole, process the surface of the aerial roller to smooth out the air bubbles arising;
We cover the plug layer with polyethylene and wait for complete drying. You can also use washed sand to create an anti-slip effect.
