During home decoration, cracks often appear in the walls. At this time, there is no need to repaint the entire wall. You only need to use a special tool - Rufiber paper joint tape. Ruifiber joint paper tape is a kind of paper tape that can help the wall become flat. It is mostly used in the flat joints of gypsum boards and the joint processing of external and internal corners, etc., or to enhance the strength of wall joints. Next, I will introduce to you how to use Ruifiber paper joint tape.
Generally speaking, the color of the joint paper tape is white or transparent, densely covered with small air holes and a pre-crease in the center. It must be used with caulking paste.
Precautions for using Ruifiber joint paper tape:
1. If the gap at the joint is too narrow, when scraping the wall, be sure to cut the gap into a V-shape with a spatula and then attach the joint paper tape. Not only that, during construction, be sure to clean the inside of the gap as well as the surface dirt and loose wall skin next to it.
2. The second step is to use putty or white ash to scrape the wall back and forth until the paper joint tape and the wall are completely integrated and become one.
3. The object to which the paper joint tape is to be pasted must be dry and free from looseness and oil stains. If the wall is loose, it will cause large areas to fall off. In addition, the thickness of lime or putty painted on the joints should not be less than one millimeter, otherwise it will easily cause the coating to crack. If you encounter an unclear material, you must first test it before proceeding with construction.
4. There are requirements for the external environment. The temperature must be above 5 degrees Celsius and below 38 degrees Celsius. If you encounter extreme weather, please do not use it to avoid quality problems.
Current classification of paper joint tape:
1. Ordinary paper joint tape:
As the name suggests, it is the most common joint paper tape, mostly white, and the cheapest on the market.
2. High-strength seam paper tape:
High-strength seaming paper tape, generally white in color, is characterized by being ultra-thin and made of high-strength interlaced fibers. It also has air holes and central pre-folds. It is used together with caulking material. This super-strong seaming paper tape is highly resistant to The tensile strength can reach 5,000 Newtons, and the moisture resistance strength is greater than 1,800 Newtons. The material is made of wood pulp and chemical fiber.
The above content is an introduction to the use and classification of Ruifiber seam paer joint tape. I hope you can learn something from it.
