How to make ceramic wall covering

How to make ceramic wall covering
How to make ceramic wall covering is different from wallpaper




How to make ceramic wall covering compared with wallpaper. The material is different from the wallpaper used to decorate the walls and a suitable place in the house
Wallpaper is commonly used to beautify the wall. This is because the wallpaper has a variety of interesting motifs can be adjusted to the room decor so that the wall look more attractive.

For now apart from wallpaper is also widely used is a wall covering that is useful to beautify the walls of the room. If the wallpaper is made of paper or vinyl then the wall covering is made of ceramic material that is given the painting.

Uniquely the technique of making wall covering is more modern but more practical because it uses digital techniques. Materials used for wall covering is generally ceramic color is plain. Before the ceramic is mounted with a picture or painting with a certain motif printed on a glass or plate with a digital machine then the ceramic is installed as you install wall tiles.

The mounting technique is also quite easy and adjust the pattern that has been made. In order not to make mistakes should be arranged first according to the pattern then mounted on the wall in sequence.

Wall covering is more expensive than wallpaper. In addition, making wall covering is also still limited. Wall covering also does not need to be applied to the entire wall or room. But enough in a strategic place in the room and used to focus on the view just like the living room.

For other parts can be used plain ceramic, wall covering is used for the entire room just makes the look of being not good.

Many uses are obtained when using digital wall covering. If the wall paper motif is determined by the wallpaper maker then your own wall covering that determines what you want in accordance with the decor of your room. The image is very lively like a real painting. Unlike the wallpaper that consists of only a few motives.



Wall covering is also resistant to water so it can be applied to the bathroom. It also can be applied to the kitchen because it is heat resistant. This is because it will not damage the look and color at all if the dyes are used with good quality.

In addition, wall covering can also be used for outdoors. Should not be exposed directly to the sun. Sunlight that is too strong will makes the color of painting quickly faded.

Compared to wall covering the durability and durability far outweighs the wallpaper. If treated properly then wall covering will lasts a lifetime.

Treatment is also as easy as ceramics let alone its position on the wall. If dirty can be cleaned with a duster that is wet with water.

For now wall covering is also made of recycled materials such as glass. mosaics, even from reclaimed paper and wood and is the inspiration of the recycling tiles themselves.

Many inspirations that appear to make wall covering depends on the creator and the imagination of the owner of the house itself. Also making wall covering more and more, especially in big cities.

Type of ceramic type and their application

The types of ceramics
The types of ceramics can be divided into several categories
 




Types of ceramics and their application need to know the quality with ceramic motifs and structures that affect the price used for the floor
Ceramics are now increasingly popular for flooring materials. When compared with ceramic marble has several advantages because the type is very much let alone shades and colors are increasingly diverse so often confuse the wearer including a choice that is suitable for the needs.

However, it can actually be distinguished primarily in the structure of its manufacture. First is ceramics that are given a layer or glazing and ceramics that are not laminated or unglazed.

The most common market is glazed ceramics. This ceramic coating is made for very suitable motifs and textures applied to the floor and wall. As for ceramics that have no coating or unglazed are used directly for the production process. Generally these unglazed ceramics have a stronger quality and thickness.

For the first water absorption is the ability to up to seven percent in absorbing water. Ceramic is suitable for use in the room and less suitable for outside because it can not stand the weather changes. There are also ceramics that absorb water between three to seven percent is almost no different from the first.



There is another ceramic that absorbs water between half to three percent and can still be used outside the room and can not stand the sun directly. And the last water absorption is less than half a percent and can be used outside the room and can be exposed to sunlight.

While in its first production process is a kind of bitcottura burned twice. Rooting is performed on the lower and second surfaces of the glazing layer. Ceramic like this is suitable for wall not for floor.
For the second ceramic is the type of Monocottura which is only once burned. Its quality is better and durable and suitable for floor.

And again the type of ceramics that can be distinguished over the surface. There is a slick and shiny and is usually used for walls and floors that always dry conditions. Moreover, the surface is not shiny and suitable for minimalist home. While ceramics that have a rough texture is usually used for moist and wet areas such as bathroom and kitchen and also for the open. While the ceramic surface of the elbow that has a perfect appearance and the price is also more expensive.



There are more disposable ceramics can be distinguished by the color of the body or the bottom surface there is white and red. Both have no quality differences and will not be visible when installed. The color that occurs due to differences due to clay used as raw materials that have different colors.

Size differences are also common, affecting quality and price. If the angle is really elbows and has no size difference between each other not less than one millimeter and the color is the same is the best quality of ceramics.

While the quality of less good ceramics such as size that is not exactly the same and also less the same color is often also found in the market with a cheaper price.

The advantages of using composite ceramics

The advantages of composite ceramics
The advantages of composite ceramics are compared with ordinary ceramics





The advantages and disadvantages of composite ceramics remain as the limitations of color and pattern and the installation can be compared with ordinary tile floors.
Technology materials are growing rapidly including materials for flooring. One of them are a composite ceramic material that is also used for the home floor. Indeed, its use before as popular as ordinary ceramics is still more widely used because it has the advantage of ordinary floor tiles.

The main material of the ceramic is made of clay but in the middle is given a cavity so that the material is lighter so the construction holds a lighter load.

Comparison of seeds with ordinary ceramics can be only half of ordinary ceramics. If a ceramic weighs 288 kg then its heavy composite ceramic is only 130 kg only because this material is made of clay.

 Because of the smaller weight this makes buildings that use composite ceramics are more resistant to earthquakes with ordinary ceramics. Its shape and size are also made of small elemental elements if it concerns a person will not make fatal wounds.

Funds issued when using composite ceramics will be much more efficient because the cement needed is only one-third of what is needed from ordinary ceramics. The steel bone needed to support the composite ceramic is less and the thickness of the concrete layer required only one to three centimeters to close the gap between one ceramic with another. Steel bones used also do not require construction bonds.

This composite ceramic is also known as "floating tile floor" although actually every manufacturer has a slightly different method for each manufacturer that produces composite ceramics.

Another advantage that is obtained is not necessary plastic spacers that you normally use for ordinary ceramics in general. Ceramics will be installed in harmony with each other. So you will not find spaces problem

The installation of composite ceramics is also shorter than ordinary ceramics and no need to make any more molds. Sufficient prints are made on edges and edges only. Likewise for his detention is no longer needed. When the installation of composite ceramics has not been completed we can also work on the floor under ceramic.



As is known the installation of this composite ceramic is only suitable for a square floor just for maximum results obtained. If used for the rectangular floor the result is less than the maximum.

Before use of composite tiles should be soaked in water at least about three hours. After that the composite ceramic can be installed one by one according to the required length. The bottom layer was given a layer of cement and sand.

While the concave and above can be covered with cement batter and dried for three or four days. A suitable comparison for cement dough is one for cement three for sand.

Once covered with cement it can be dried up to seven days. You can also use concrete with water. The goal is that the concrete has a strong endurance.

However the weaknesses in composite ceramics such as still limited to the color and style as in the ordinary ceramics that you come across.
However this provides an alternate range of options for the floor especially its function. The development of floor coverings such as composite ceramics is one example to find stronger and cheaper materials and can be mass produced in the future if proven to be more efficient and relatively cheaper.
