Acrylic bathtub acrylic bathtub RavakPervoe in popularity occupy acrylic baths. These baths are very popular in Europe. In the European market they are known for more than thirty years. In Ukraine, acrylic baths have become popular over 10 years. In the domestic market are sold as imported and domestic bath. Acrylic - a material that belongs to the category of thermoplastics. The advantage of acrylic baths: - light weight (from 20 to 45 kg. Depending on model and size) - dull sound when filled with bath water (acrylic absorbent material) - a bowl bath warm to the touch (the material has low thermal conductivity) - surface Bath is ideally smooth, mirror-smooth, - on the strength of acrylic baths are not inferior to a cast-iron - easy care and maintenance. Acrylic Bathtubs come in all shapes and sizes. They are easy to carry and use. The process of manufacturing acrylic bathtubs consists of three main phases. First acrylic sheet of thickness 4-5 mm were heated at high temperatures up to 160 degrees in Celsius and is formed in a mold. Cooling of the workpiece under the tub on the outside is covered with a mixture of epoxy and fiberglass. This gives the strength of the bath. Coating process (reinforcement) is repeated several times.

On the amount of reinforcement depends on the strength of Bath and its price. Because this process is very time-consuming and energy intensive. The last stage consists of a bowl cut, delete, fin and the formation of bath rim.

How to start and how to do Laying tiles in the bathroom

How to start and how to do Laying tiles in the bathroom
Obviously, the work must begin with the measurement of each wall. Measure the height and width of each vertical wall, then multiply the width by the height and get the area for each wall. If you plan to use decorative finishing profile, measure and record the height of the outer edge of the wall along the tub. Profile - a tile with one rounded edge for finishing. Tile laying bought square meters, profiles, and other trim pieces or purchased meter. Tiles should be taken from the calculation, at least a 5% increase from the calculated amount for the replacement of damaged or chipped off tiles. Be sure to check that the tiles were of the same hue at this point to refer to the letters or numbers.

When you're choosing tile, think about what you can add a different colored or patterned tiles in a total area of the wall. This will help make your packing more attractive and will give it a distinctive look.

Before you begin, make sure that your bathtub is enough protected from damage during operation. I covered the entire tub plastic sheeting and secure it in several places with tape. Faucets and pipes, I defended with cardboard tubes.

Surface preparation for laying tile.
If you build a house, especially wood and have the opportunity to choose a basis for laying tile, I would recommend to opt for a cement slab. Do not use as a base for ceramic tile plywood. Place around the tub is constantly exposed to moisture, and in fairly large quantities plates are readily available in specialty stores for the sale of materials for the floor. They come in several sizes and thickness. Plate size 90 cm x 150 cm and a thickness of 12mm are used most frequently.

In order to cut the cement board, put a pencil line, made an incision with a special knife or saw and broke a piece of the desired size.
If you're going to stick the tiles with adhesive mastic type, use the smooth surface of the cement slab. If you're going to attach ceramic tiles using mortar made from a mixture of portland cement, it is better to face the rough surface of the slab. Be sure to leave gaps of about 3 mm between all the plates.

For attaching cement board to the wall, follow all manufacturer's recommendations. Usually fixing cement board to the wall are advised to use special screws. Screws should be placed every 15-20 cm Keep in mind that the cement slab is not used to strengthen the construction of the wall. It is used for applying the adhesive layer for laying tile. Once the stove is installed, make sure it is still attached, otherwise the tile will crack and break.

All joints between the cement board should be taped before laying tile. The shops sell special tape made of fiberglass, which is rolled up and is on the reverse side of the adhesive layer to adhere to the cement board.

So now you're ready to dry tile laying. Applied along each wall, one row of tiles (not yet sticking) This will help choose the best option styling, which in places matching the tiles on the surrounding walls will not cut narrow strips of tile. If the tiles at the end of a number of turns is less than 2.5 cm wide, it is better to cut the tile at the beginning of the series, than to cut the tiles into narrow strips and customize them. Believe me, trying to cut narrow strips of tile - a futile exercise, and you only lose a lot of tiles due to the fact that they cracked. Make a small pencil mark on the wall, which will be based on the first and last tile in a row. Using a plumb line (string laden), apply the vertical lines that indicate the correct direction of the vertical rows of tiles. These lines will also help you at work in moving up the wall. With the help of a plumb-line can also be defined prior to installation irregularities plate and correct where necessary. Do this by moving along all the walls. Keep in mind that the series of tiles should never end up in the spot where the seam of th cement slab.

I came to the conclusion that tile is easier to stack small parcels. With the help of rule (check line) and chalk lines deposited on the surface of cement board, divide the wall into smaller areas. I noted section height equal 6.4 tiles. On this site it is convenient to apply the adhesive or grout. Use a rule and a constant level for the validation of laying tile. If the ranks of the tiles begin to "come running", on a small section of tile is easier to adjust both the width and height.

Customizationis done through careful expansion or decrease the width of grout joints. My tiles have spacers built along all edges of the tiles, I have not had the need to manually set the distance between the tiles.

For laying the tiles, I used qualitative mastic for the walls, as it greatly facilitates the work to a layperson. Even if your home is engaged in laying tile master more than one year, to learn quickly and to prepare a cement mixture in the bucket is quite difficult. (Note: cement mix is best suited for fixing tiles to a cement wall, but as a DIY I do not want to experience ). When working on a separate small area you do not need to do once all work together. Although I made the wall above the bath one day, you can do the work in sections, when time permits. Just do not get down too much plot, trying to hurry to lay the tiles on the wall. If there are any excess glue, take a spatula, scrape them and remove. I used the old scrapers, so I could throw them after they came into disrepair.

Manufacturers of mastic in the instructions indicate what a serrated scraper is more suitable for the application of the adhesive. Make sure that the glue can be used for laying tiles on vertical surfaces. Adhesives for wall tiles should strongly enough and quickly grasp that adjacent tiles are not "slipping" at a time when the attach another tile. Tiles should be firmly pressed against the adhesive solution. Occasionally knock on the tile surface and listen to the sound emission, to check whether the glue is completely filled the space under the tiles. Firmly attach the tile, lightly move the tiles back and forth after the indentation in the glue. (Do not overdo it, otherwise you can squeeze all the glue through the seams). This will give you the confidence that the tile is securely "village" in the glue.

To clean the glue that has entered the period of tile joints, I used a thin wooden stick or plastic spatula thickness of 2,5 cm I prefer plastic or wood, so as not to scratch the tile.

Product should be applied to the surface of the cement slab with a scraper suitable size. The scraper must be serrated edge. Tine allows uniform distribution of glue "scallops." Usually recommended only slightly tilted scraper. (If your knuckles get into the glue, then you hold the scraper incorrectly). Never distribute the glue smooth with a scraper or a smooth jagged side scraper. When the teeth on the scraper will be ruined, stop work and get a new one. Change the scraper is much cheaper than changing the tiles due to poor quality work. Buy scrapers highest quality and always keep them handy. Check back often if the teeth are not worn.

As you install tile, part of the glue can fasten on the surface of the tile. Always keep on hand a bucket of warm water and a sponge. Once finished laying tile in a small spot, soak the sponge and wipe any excess glue from the tile surface. Do this carefully so as not to move the newly installed tile. Frequently rinse and press the sponge wipe the tile surface only well-wrung damp sponge.

To cut tiles, make a markup on it before applying the glue. With roulette, pencil, and one or two tiles, select the section of the tile to be cut off. To go around the pipe, I used tongs to a tile, slowly biting off small pieces of tile. Tile cutters can be bought at specialized departments for the sale of instruments.

To cut straight pieces or cut tile in half, I used kafelerez. With kafelereza tiles are cut much easier and more accurate and smoother edges are obtained. First, on the surface of the tile is drawn the line on which to cut the tiles. You then need to press a hand on the handle of the device and under the pressure of tile is easy to split into two parts just by incised lines.

Kafelerez can be rented at the time of laying the tile.

After the tile has been laid, the glue was dry for 24 hours. At this time I did the other bathroom.

Tile Grout
Since I used the wall tiles with very small gaps for grout, I should have used the grout does not contain sand. Grout containing sand in its composition, typically used for floor tiles, which must be laid with wider seams between the tiles. Since I try to do everything as expected, I added a grout solution of latex ("latex milk"). Some people may be advised to dissolve latex mixed with water in order to save money. Do not do it! Use of the supplement is the concentration recommended by the manufacturer. Latex grout additive gives extra traction and flexibility. The additive makes cleaning more difficult, but the end result increases the durability of the coating. Mix the grout and additive to the instructions and mix thoroughly. Normally you need to leave the mixture for several minutes before use. Prepare exactly that amount which you will need to work. I prefer to do at one time one wall.

Grout is distributed over the surface of the tiles with a special rubber trowel. Floats must be kept at an angle and moved along the surface of the tiles on the diagonal. With this method the grout fills the joints better. Make sure all joints are completely filled with grout. By the time you finish grouting the wall above the bath, the place from where you started the work will already be ready for cleaning. Be sure to read the instructions on the package with the grout mixture to use it.

Final Touches
Clean the tile dull, but fairly easy. Prepare a bucket of clean warm water and a sponge. Squeeze the sponge and start wiping down all the walls completely. Always keep the sponge at an angle of 45 degrees to the tile seams. Never wipe in parallel seams. This will keep the grout in the joints. To remove plaque remaining on the tile after washing, I cleaned the surface with a sponge first and then an old white t-shirt.

Grout sealer is recommended to treat at least 21 days. Do not be surprised to high price sealant, it is very expensive. We did not need to shower immediately after installation, so I waited 21 days before applying sealer. Surplus sealant I removed with a piece of old white cloth. I also used the sealant to the bathroom and filled the space between the edge of tub and tile, as well as around the holes cut for pipes.
