If you plan to do repairs and want something "brand new", radical and creative, then you should pay special attention to liquid wallpaper. Construction shops actively offer their customers, as in the CIS countries and Europe many buyers use them. Experts do not hide that liquid wallpaper has pros and cons. I would like to briefly list some features of their use in the apartment or at the dacha.
The main advantages of liquid wallpaper
I would like to start with the positive aspects by which this type of wallpaper has become so popular in a short time.
The first advantage that buyers pay attention to is that the liquid wallpaper quickly dries.
The second advantage will interest those people whose apartments are dominated by uneven walls. This composition allows you to hide irregularities, roughness and seams. In such a cheap way, you can visually hide cracks.
The third advantage is that the liquid wallpaper consists of environmentally friendly materials, including cotton, silk and textile fibers. This feature allows you to use liquid wallpaper even in children's rooms. Due to the antistatic nature of these wallpapers do not attract dust, which is very important for modern housing.
The fourth advantage is that liquid wallpaper is flexible, that is, it is excellent to hold on the walls, unlike the usual wallpaper that our compatriots used to use.
The fifth advantage is no less interesting, because this type of wallpaper allows the walls to "breathe" (if you do not apply varnish on top of the wallpaper). Since almost all construction materials are leakproof, this feature can be regarded as gold weight.
The main disadvantages of liquid wallpaper
Of course, have liquid wallpaper and flaws. Based on the experience of people and observations of specialists, it should be noted their hygroscopicity. It turns out that they are undesirable to use in rooms with high humidity, that is, in the kitchen or in the hallway.
Another feature is that some part of the wall may be damaged during operation.
Unquestionably, "dry powder" is famous for its many advantages. Of course, not all the pros and cons of liquid wallpaper were listed, but these features will allow you to have a general idea of know-how and be fully equipped when choosing this coating in a construction shop.
