What are the advantages and disadvantages of the epoxy goal?
The
epoxy finish is usually very durable and easy to clean and is considered ideal for use on boards and floors because it is both water resistant and very difficult to scratch. Epoxide lasts many different types of cleaning methods without losing shine and shine. If it is used correctly, the epoxy surface treatment may take many years without deterioration, even if it is exposed to harsh environmental elements. One of the disadvantages associated with epoxy is that it is sometimes difficult to apply correctly, and if there are errors during the application, it is time consuming to remove. Some types of epoxy may contain compounds that may pose health risks during the application. One of the key factors in achieving permanent epoxy surface treatment is the preparation of the surface. Before applying epoxy, the survist should be clean and completely dry. The persistent humidity can cause a bubble of epoxy, so it is uneven and more likely a chip or rupture. When working with porous surfaces such asWood, some experts recommend waiting 48 hours after cleaning before applying epoxy.
Most of the time epoxy is used to pour on the surfaces and allow it to stop and level. If the surface of the edge, it must be "damaged", so the epoxy does not run from the sides. This process can take a lot of time, because at each edge of the piece it will be necessary to attach narrow strips of wood. These pieces of wood should be attached to spread about 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the surface that will receive epoxy. Once the epoxy is poured and is completely dry, the temporary edge may be removed.
As soon as the epoxy dries and the wooden strips are removed, there is even more work. Thehrans, which are created by a "dam" process, are generally very sharp and will probably need to be grinded. Brushes can be done manually, but this is sometimes a very slow process. To speed up this step may be a good idea to rent an electric handa grinder for a day.
Despite all the added preparation that is necessary to apply the epoxy surface, some people believe that high shine and durability are worth further effort. Epoxide usually brings much more shine than other types of oil or water paint. Another advantage of epoxy is that it usually requires only one treatment, while the varnish may require repeated shells to seal the surfaces properly.
