3 mistakes to know when painting aluminum ceiling frames at home

Painting an aluminum ceiling can help increase aesthetics and refresh the house, but there will be risks if you make some basic mistakes below.

In modern interior design, the use of aluminum ceiling frames will create accents, divide the space of the house or make bone systems for the plaster ceiling chosen by many families.

However, the construction of paint directly on aluminum surfaces requires high techniques and a precise implementation process if you do not want to affect the quality, durability and aesthetics of the ceiling frame.

Skipping the metal surface treatment stage

This is a fairly common technical error when the characteristics of aluminum surfaces are glossy and have a natural thin layer of oxide, making it difficult for conventional paint to stick.

Some families, in order to save time, choose to paint directly on the frame surface. As a result, the paint layer quickly swells and peels after a short time of use.

Accordingly, the first process requires cleaning the aluminum surface to completely avoid dirt and grease and then grinding to create Adherence, and finally painting a layer of specialized metal lining before painting.

Using the wrong type of specialized paint

Not all types of paint can be used for metals, especially aluminum. Therefore, using conventional water paints or low-quality oil paints to paint metal will not ensure Adhesiveness and color durability.

Choose paint with ingredients that are suitable for aluminum surfaces, usually epoxy paint or specialized acrylic paint. These paints are resistant to corrosion, impact-resistant, and hold longer color. Using the right type of paint will increase the effectiveness of "beautifying" the aluminum frame.

Not covering it thoroughly, causing color damage

One of the most obvious signs is not covering the surrounding areas thoroughly. The painting of aluminum ceiling frames requires meticulousness, cleverness and high concentration to avoid dirting areas such as high ceilings, walls, floors or other furniture.

Use paper glue to carefully apply the borders and use tarpaulins and nylon to cover them to avoid paint being colored. Slide paint not only spoils the aesthetics but is also very difficult to process later, especially on brightly colored surfaces.
