In the world of building paints, the variety of colors is very high and each type of color has its own characteristics and uses. For example, oil paint gives a beautiful and shiny effect to surfaces and can be washed. Plastic color has a reasonable price. Other colors, such as acrylic, multi-color, etc., have their own characteristics, which we will examine in this article, and we will see pictures of building color samples together.
Types of building paints based on the building material have unique features and characteristics. You can choose any color according to your budget and the needs of the project. In general, among the types of building colors in the market, the following six building painting colors are the most used:
Plastic paint of the building
Plastic paint is one of the most widely used construction paints whose solvent is water and is diluted by water. Painting with plastic paint is so simple that you can do it yourself. Only if you start working, be careful that the paint does not come out thick or thin. If the paint is thin, the surface coverage is poor and you have to paint the surface several times. Conversely, if the color is thick, it will not spread well on the surface. The color of the plastic gets dirty quickly, so it is suitable for the ceiling, inside the closets and storages; Because these environments are less accessible and do not get very dirty or stained.
Oil paint of the building
Oil paint is one of the old building paints and can be washed. Due to its very bad and harmful smell, today oil paint is not used much for the interior walls of the building, but it is mostly used for metal, wooden surfaces and exterior walls of the building. Oil paint is divided into three categories: matte, glossy and semi-gloss. It is possible that each type has its own characteristics. For example, matte oil paint shows the defects of the wall less. Glossy oil paint is easier to clean. The semi-glossy oil paint has a combination of the properties of both glossy and matte oil paints and is suitable for when you are at a crossroads between choosing a glossy and matte oil paint.
Acrylic paint of the building
Acrylic paint has acrylic resins in its ingredients that have good resistance to moisture. This paint is newer than oil and plastic paint and has its own special customers. The advantage of acrylic paint over plastic paint is that it has better resistance to moisture. Also, the advantage of acrylic paint over oil paint is that the solvent of acrylic paint is water, so it does not have the bad smell of oil paint and is environmentally friendly. It is also compatible. It is for these reasons that the popularity of acrylic paint is increasing day by day.
