Paint is a commonly used building material for home decoration. Many people have a good understanding of the paint selection method. However, some consumers will fall into the purchase mistakes during the selection process. Most of these misunderstandings are caused by some equivalent concepts. Let's take a look at some of the equivalent concepts that affect your paint selection.

Myth 1: No smell = environmental protection

When selecting paints, many people will judge the safety of the paint by “smelling”. Some consumers have the misunderstanding that it is environmentally friendly when they smell no smell or the smell is very sweet. In fact, the paint can be odorless by adding flavor or low-odor materials, so the odorless paint is not completely environmentally friendly and non-toxic.

Choosing a trick: Nothing to smell or smell is one of the ways to look at its environmental friendliness, but the most direct and professional method is to see if its environmental indicators meet the standards, such as the content of VOC, the amount of free formaldehyde, etc., if conditions permit. Consumers can even take a professional formaldehyde test box or tester to test on the spot, so that the purchase is foolproof.

Myth 2: Anti-cracking paint = certain crack resistance

The use of a period of brushed wall surface will be more or less cracking, many people have tried their best to choose a good paint to solve the cracking problem. Some paint brands in the market have launched anti-cracking products. Consumers have been attracted by these two words at once. I feel that this paint will definitely resist cracking when bought back to the wall. Such misunderstandings often occur around us.

Selection of tricks: good quality coatings slow down the cracking of the wall to a certain extent, but in addition to the anti-cracking effect of the coating, construction and maintenance are also the key factors for wall crack resistance. Recall that a thin layer of paint film can prevent the wall from cracking. This is a bit overstated. Nowadays, the "elastic latex paint" on the market can only compensate for micro cracks below 0.3mm. If the wall has been cracked, it is best to use latex paint to make up, or use cement to fill the cracks, and then paint.

Myth 3: Color card color = upper wall color

When buying paint, consumers will refer to the color on the color card as a reference. Many people have misunderstandings, thinking that the color on these color cards is exactly the same as the color of the actual wall. Due to light reflection, etc., after painting the wall of the room, the color will be a little deeper than the color displayed on the color card. If the paint of poor quality is encountered, the difference between the actual color and the color card will be greater.

Selection of tricks: In order to avoid the deviation of the color of the purchased paint from the desired color, it is generally recommended to choose the color you like, and then purchase the light number of the light one, so that the wall effect will be closer to you. favourite colour.

Myth 4: High price = good quality

Price is an important reference indicator for the purchase of paint, and many people have a good misunderstanding of high-priced paint. This part of the consumer usually thinks that the higher the price of the paint, the better, proving that the paint is real, so buy it when you buy it.

Choice of the trick: not the higher the price, the better the quality, consumers can use the price as a reference when purchasing the paint, but in addition to considering the price is more important to choose a reputable big brand, and test the quality of the paint.

In the home decoration, the coating construction accounts for 80% of the entire decoration area. The paint covers almost the entire home, and it cannot be taken lightly at the time of selection. Numerous experiences tell us that the misunderstanding of paint selection abounds, safety, crack resistance, color, quality, these properties are equalized by some wrong information, leading to the wrong choice. As a savvy consumer, you must see the essence and never be fooled by these equivalent concepts.
