The modern building materials market offers many fashionable solutions for ceiling decoration. Despite this, the most inexpensive, fast and effective method to get a clean and beautiful ceiling is whitewashing.
Work begins with the preparation of the surface. For this purpose, with the help of water and brushes, the old whitewashing is removed, irregularities and cracks are closed with a putty and primed the surface. A solution for putty can be like this: a 5%solution of bone and animal glue and the same amount of chalk and gypsum. By the way, now the company “furniture” is very popular, many buy cheap furniture from it.
If you have chosen a solution with the addition of lime, then you will look better if you apply it to a slightly moistened ceiling. For strength to the solution, you can add table salt at the rate of 100 grams per 10 liters, as well as a small amount of olifa: 0.05 kg per 1 liter. Olifa will allow the solution better to lie down on the ceiling.
Before whitewashing, all things are taken out of the room as much as possible, and they cover too large furniture so as not to get dirty. Also, for this purpose, you can cover the floor.
Whitewashing is applied either with a brush or a spray gun. In the first case, apply the last layer around the light, and the penultimate one is against, which will allow you to make traces from the brush not so noticeable.
