Texture paint application method

Abstract

This invention provides a method for applying textured coatings, comprising a texture forming step and a finishing step. The texture forming step involves applying a textured coating layer on a substrate layer, wherein the textured coating layer has a plurality of textured portions formed on its surface. The finishing step involves applying a finishing layer on the textured coating layer, the finishing layer being colored and having partial transparency, thereby finishing the textured coating layer where the texture presentation effect is not as expected.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This work relates to decorative application techniques, particularly those based on textured coatings. Prior Technology

[0002] Textured coatings (such as micro cement paint, LeTu plaster, etc.) can create special textures on walls, thereby creating a unique aesthetic, such as wabi-sabi, Nordic style, Japanese imitation exposed concrete and other artistic wall styles.

[0003] However, once textured paint is applied to a wall, the distribution, depth, and density of its special texture are difficult to control. It is easily affected by factors such as environmental humidity, temperature, and the application force of the paint. As a result, the application effect is often not as expected, and the painting process is highly dependent on the experience and skills of the on-site paint applicators.

[0004] Existing methods to address this include sanding and applying multiple coats of textured paint. However, sanding is time-consuming, generates a lot of dust, and can easily produce unsightly imperfections such as glare, color differences, and whitening. Applying multiple coats of textured paint can result in uneven thickness and noticeable color variations on the surface. Furthermore, these methods are only suitable for localized adjustments; if the results are significantly less than expected, reapplication may be necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, in order to improve the problem that traditional application methods for textured coatings are not easy to control the distribution and depth of textures, the present invention proposes a textured coating application method, which includes a texture forming step and a finishing step, wherein:

[0006] Texture forming step: A texture coating layer is provided on a substrate layer, and the texture coating layer has a plurality of textured parts on its own surface;

[0007] Modification step: A modification layer is provided on the textured coating layer. The modification layer is colored and has partial transparency to modify the textured coating layer.

[0008] Furthermore, the substrate layer can be made of materials such as calcium silicate board, marble slab, foam board, clear concrete wall panel, cement wall panel, glass panel, or wood panel.

[0009] Furthermore, it may include a priming step: a primer layer is provided on the substrate layer to help bond the substrate layer and the textured coating layer.

[0010] Furthermore, the material of the textured coating layer can be any or a combination of micro-cement, linseed mud, diatomaceous earth, concrete, and artistic paint, so as to form multiple textured parts on the coated surface.

[0011] Furthermore, the material of the modifying layer can be a diluted coating, comprising a colorant, a homogenizer, a resin, and water. The color of the modifying layer and the texture coating layer can be corresponding, similar, or contrasting, depending on the desired texture shape.

[0012] Furthermore, a transparent protective material can be applied to the finishing layer and / or the texture coating layer to form a transparent protective layer, thereby providing protection (such as resistance to acids and alkalis, water repellency, etc.).

[0013] By virtue of the above features, the following effects can be achieved:

[0014] 1. By using a colored and partially transparent modification layer, textured coating layers that do not achieve the desired texture appearance can be corrected.

[0015] 2. By using a partially transparent modification layer that corresponds to the color of the texture coating layer, a masking effect can be created, changing the visual effect of the amount or depth of the texture in the texture coating layer, making it easier to correct texture coating layers whose texture presentation does not meet expectations.

[0016] 3. The coating material used for the finishing layer is readily available and easy to manufacture.

[0017] 4. Depending on the textured coating layer, select various colors such as close to or opposite to the finishing layer to provide the best finishing effect. Simple Explanation of the Diagram

Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the layered structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 is a planar schematic diagram of the textured coating layer according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0019] Based on the above technical features, the main effects of the textured coating application method of the present invention can be clearly presented in the following embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, for ease of understanding, similar functional elements in each drawing will use similar or identical element symbols.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2, which illustrate the application method of textured coating according to an embodiment of the present invention, including a priming step (S1), a texture forming step (S2), and a finishing step (S3), wherein:

[0021] Primer step (S1): A primer layer (2) can be applied to a substrate layer (1) first. The type of primer layer (2) can be determined according to the type of substrate layer (1). For example, the substrate layer (1) can be a calcium silicate board, a marble slab, a foam board, a clear concrete wall, a cement wall panel, a glass board or a wood board, etc., or the wall surface of a building. The shape and size are not limited. This fills the small cracks on the surface of the substrate layer (1). The primer layer (2) can also be used to strengthen and protect the substrate layer (1), prevent moisture, chemicals and other factors from eroding and damaging the substrate layer (1), and help strengthen the bonding strength between the texture coating layer (3) described later and the substrate layer (1).

[0022] Texture forming step (S2): Next, a texture coating layer (3) is provided on the substrate layer (1) and the primer layer (2). The material of the texture coating layer (3) is, for example, any or a combination of micro cement, tar plaster, diatomaceous earth, concrete, and artistic paint. After the texture coating layer (3) is applied, it can form a plurality of textured parts (31) on its own surface.

[0023] Modification step (S3): A modification layer (4) is provided on the texture coating layer (3) to modify the texture coating layer (3). The modification layer (4) is applied locally or over a large area to the texture coating layer (3). The modification layer (4) has partial transparency, and the color of the modification layer (4) can correspond to the texture coating layer (3), for example, the color is similar to the texture coating layer (3), and the position corresponds to the texture part (31). By using the partially transparent modification layer (4) that corresponds to the color of the texture coating layer (3), a masking effect can be produced, which is convenient for modifying the texture part (31) where the texture presentation effect does not meet expectations (e.g., too deep, too wide, or too dense).

[0024] In detail, the finishing layer (4) can be a diluted paint, which can be used by diluting commercially available color paints, but it is not limited to this and can also be prepared by oneself. The main components include a color paste, a homogenizer, a resin and water. Subsequently, a transparent protective layer (5) can be applied to the finishing layer (4) and / or the textured paint layer (3) to provide protection (such as resistance to acids and alkalis, water repellency, etc.).

[0025] Please refer to Figures 3 and 4, and also to the attached photographs, which are used to illustrate the comparison before and after the modification layer (4) is applied to the textured coating layer (3). In Figure 3, the original texture of the textured coating layer (3) is more pronounced. In Figure 4, by applying the modification layer (4) to the textured coating layer (3), the texture of the textured coating layer (3) can be reduced and softened to achieve the desired decorative effect.

[0026] In contrast, if the original texture of the textured coating layer (3) is less or less obvious, the amount of texture presented by the textured coating layer (3) can be increased and deepened by applying the decorative layer (4) to the areas of the textured coating layer (3) that do not have the textured parts, so as to achieve the desired decorative effect. In addition, if the presentation effect of the textured coating layer (3) is relatively monotonous, the textured coating layer (3) can be made more diverse by applying the decorative layer (4) of various colors (the color style depends on the needs) on the textured coating layer (3), so as to provide a customized and unique decorative structure based on the fixed type of textured coating.

[0027] It should be noted that the above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention and implement it accordingly, and is not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention; therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the present invention are covered by the scope of the patent application.
