Such finishing material as lining, for the most part, already has a decorative protective covering. It is enough to do the cladding and that’s it – the room is ready for use. But in order to increase the resistance of materials to the influence of external factors, extend the service life of materials, or give surfaces the new kind, you can use lining varnish.
Typically, such a decorative coating is used for lining made of natural wood. Of course, a certain protective impregnation of the base is already present, and finishing under varnish is carried out to impart special aesthetic properties and protect the surfaces.
Finishing with colorless varnish allows you to preserve the natural shade of wood, which will not change under the influence of ultraviolet radiation if natural lining is used as internal lining walls on the balcony. This protective coating is also used in the interior decoration of the house (not only on the balcony), it is very beautiful.
With the help of pigment varnish, you can saturate the colors of the finish, and with wood, you can completely transform it, creating the effect of a completely different base. So what varnish should I use to coat the lining?
For use inside the house, even on the balcony, it is advisable to choose harmless chemicals. That is, without odor and the presence of toxic impurities. It would be best to paint the surfaces with varnish water based.
Water-based varnish for lining can be freely used indoors, since it does not contain organic solvents, which create a specific odor. Aqueous compositions are environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, relatively durable, and are widely applicable for finishing the surfaces of walls and ceilings inside the house, partitions and ceilings, on balconies, loggias and other premises.
There are one-component and two-component water-based formulations. The latter are preferable due to better surface protection. It won’t be difficult to do it yourself, because the solution is easy to work with. However, depending on the quality wooden base The consumption of the protective agent and the application technology (in one, two or more layers) may depend.
Water-based varnishes have a lot of advantages:
However, water-based solutions also have a number of disadvantages. They take longer to dry (due to the low volatility of the solvent – water). Water-based acrylic varnishes (the most common type of material) are expensive. Before using the varnish, the surfaces to be treated should be properly prepared: cleaned of dirt and dust, sanded (if necessary).
Outside the home and on open balcony lined with clapboard, it is better to use alkyd or polyurethane paint and varnish mixtures. This finish will last much longer, reliably protecting surfaces from negative impact environment.
A significant disadvantage of these materials is the release of harmful substances, since the composition contains organic solvents.
If you want to additionally protect the surfaces covered with wooden clapboard inside the house, on the balcony, covered veranda, etc., you need to approach the painting work correctly. As mentioned, before applying the varnish, preparatory work is carried out - sanding and cleaning.
To reduce the consumption of the finishing coating solution and increase the adhesion of the varnish to the base materials, it is recommended to prime the surface. In addition, the primer will increase the protective properties of the decorative layer. The best choice The primer mixture in this case is also water-based (solutions of similar composition interact well with each other).
When the impregnation has completely dried, and this will take from 4 hours to a day (depending on environmental conditions), you can proceed to the next stage of interior finishing work. Inside the house, you can paint the walls with any convenient painting tool: brush, roller, swab, sprayer.
Before using the solution, it must be mixed thoroughly. A highly viscous substance can be diluted, because varnishes that are thinner in consistency adhere better and give a less thick layer. Plain water is used as a diluent. Dilution proportions are indicated on the product packaging in the instructions for use ( technical specifications).
If there is pigment in the varnish solution or you plan to add tint yourself, then the mixture must be mixed very thoroughly until a uniform color and consistency is obtained.
When working with water-based varnishes on the balcony and at home, you don’t have to adhere to strict standards personal protection: goggles, respiratory mask, gloves. Fresh varnish can be easily removed from hands and tools with plain water. But if the solution has dried, you will need special tools to remove it.
Finishing the interior surfaces of rooms with lacquered lining looks very natural. In addition, natural wood materials create a special microclimate in the premises. Staying in them becomes more cozy and comfortable.
You should not skimp on the quality of materials used for construction and repair work, because this is one of the keys to the success of such an enterprise.
Lining is one of the most commonly used materials nowadays. It usually has an outer protective coating, so many people think that just installing it is enough and nothing else is required. However, in order to improve the resistance of this finishing material to negative external factors, as well as to extend the life of the boards, it is advisable to use lining varnish. This composition protects the surface and also makes it visually attractive.
Typically, high-quality lining is made from natural wood, after which it is coated with special impregnations, so this material already has some protection. But if you apply a suitable varnish to the surface, the aesthetic properties will increase and the protection of this facing material will increase. Thanks to the finishing with transparent varnish, you can preserve for a long time and even highlight the natural texture and shade of wood. It will not change under the negative influence of ultraviolet rays, especially if the lining is used not inside the house, but on the balcony.
Nowadays, lining is used not only on balconies and under the roof space, but also inside the house, where it looks very attractive. Thanks to the coating with a pigmented type of lining varnish, you can make the shade more saturated. And if you apply it to a natural wooden surface, you can completely transform the wood, making it more solid and expensive. Many people have a question: what kind of varnish can be used to coat the lining inside the house and on the balcony? Next, popular types of varnish compositions will be considered.
To process wood on the balcony and at home, the best option is an environmentally friendly and harmless varnish composition, preferably one without an unpleasant odor or toxic components. Experts say it's better to paint wooden base water-based varnish.
Water-soluble varieties of varnish mixtures can be safely applied inside living rooms, such products do not contain solvents, so they do not have a specific unpleasant odor. In addition, water-based varnish is hypoallergenic, safe for human health, has a long service life, and can be used to cover ceilings and walls, as well as various ceilings, partitions, balcony elements and loggias.
There are one-component and two-component water-soluble varnish mixtures. What is the best varnish to use for lining? Two-component varnishes must be mixed before use; they create a better protective layer. Applying varnish on the balcony and at home is quite easy; it does not require special knowledge or skills in the field of finishing; it is easy to work with the varnish mixture. Depending on the structure of the wood, its absorbency, as well as how many layers the composition will be applied, the consumption of varnish will depend.
Water-soluble types of varnishes for lining have many advantages:
Despite these advantages, coating lining with varnish has some disadvantages. These compositions take quite a long time to dry because water evaporates longer than the organic solvent. Water-based acrylic varnish (one of the most common) is quite expensive. If necessary, before painting the base, it is necessary to properly prepare it - remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants from it, and sand the surface.
What kind of varnish can be used to coat the lining on the balcony if you need to protect the outer surface located under open air? For this would be better suited alkyd or polyurethane varnish solution. These varieties are more suitable for external surfaces, they will serve much longer, and will also more reliably protect the lining from the harmful effects of the environment and precipitation. The disadvantage of polyurethane and alkyd varnishes is their toxicity; they emit substances harmful to humans into the air, because one of their components is an organic solvent, so they are suitable for coating the external parts of balconies or loggias.
In addition to varnish mixtures, special impregnations are also used to protect the lining. They penetrate deeply into the surface of the wood and create a reliable protective layer. Quite often, impregnations or stains that have a wax base are used on balconies. The most simple option impregnation is stain, which is quite inexpensive, and in terms of characteristics it is practically no worse than expensive materials.
Different types of stains have an alcohol, acrylic, oil and water base. In addition, powder, gel and ready-to-use stains are produced; they are intended for either external or internal use. Impregnation, which has a wax base, protects wood from high humidity air, so the tree does not begin to rot. The protective layer formed on the surface withstands temperature changes, the surface becomes very attractive. Impregnations are often used to protect the lining from harsh climates, large temperature fluctuations and high humidity; they are applied to internal surfaces saunas and baths.
To acrylic lacquer or another type of varnish composition is firmly held on a wooden paneling indoors or outside a balcony, loggia, veranda or terrace, it is necessary to adhere to certain rules for applying varnish mixtures. Before applying any type of solution, such as acrylic varnish, polyurethane or alkyd composition, you need to clean the surface and sand it.
Then, in order to reduce the consumption of expensive varnish, as well as improve the adhesion (adhesion) of the varnish mixture to the lining, experts recommend priming the base. Also, thanks to priming, the protective characteristics of the decorative coating are improved. If a water-based varnish is applied, then the primer should be the same in composition so that it interacts as well as possible with the varnish solution.
When the impregnation or primer has dried (usually this takes 4-24 hours, depending on the temperature and humidity), you can begin to apply varnish to the lining. The application process can be carried out using a brush, roller, spray or swab. A swab and brush are used when you need to varnish a small surface area, a roller and a spray gun allow you to varnish very quickly a large number of square meters of lining.
Before applying the composition, it must be thoroughly mixed. If the varnish mixture is very thick, it can be diluted according to the instructions, either with water or thinner. More liquid solutions spread over the surface much better, and the layer is not very thick. Do not exceed the dilution ratio specified in the technical specifications or instructions.
Important! If pigment dye or tint is added to the varnish, it is important to thoroughly mix the composition to obtain a uniform consistency in viscosity and shade.
Apply the varnish to the surface of the lining carefully so that the mixture does not get on the skin, eyes, or nearby objects. You need to work in a respirator, goggles and gloves. If varnish gets on your skin or other objects, it must be washed off immediately with water before it dries, otherwise it will be much more difficult to remove. It is advisable to varnish in several layers to ensure maximum surface protection. There is no need to save money when choosing paint and varnish products; they must be of high quality, because the success of varnishing and subsequent operation of the lining depends on this.
One of the most popular types of wooden finishing materials is lining. It has a different profile, due to which the surface has a different appearance - from a smooth wall with small grooves, to waves different sizes. It’s just that wooden walls do not fit into all interiors, so there is often a need to paint the lining indoors - at home or in the country.
In general, many people believe that it is better not to treat the lining indoors with anything. Maybe so, but not in every climate and room it will retain its properties for a long time. original appearance. If the level of ventilation is insufficient, the wood may turn blue; if it is exposed to the sun, it becomes dark gray.
Blue discoloration can only be combated with biological means - chlorine or active oxygen, and then definitely impregnated with protective compounds, and maybe even painted. It’s a little easier with grayed wood: by removing the top layer by sanding you will again get a beautiful color, but without UV protection it won’t last long either. That’s why they decide to paint the lining inside the house or cottage.
One more point: not everyone likes wood in the interior. It's just that sometimes people get tired of looking at her. I just want a smooth, colored surface. This also happens, and often. In this case, look for opaque paint. Select characteristic effects as desired.
The inside of the lining is painted with opaque paints also because wood in its natural color is not compatible with all styles. But sometimes you want high-tech, for example. In this case paint will do with metal particles or mother of pearl (for example, Lignovit Platin).
All compositions for protecting wood can be fairly roughly divided into six main groups:
The varnish can be glossy, matte or semi-matte, or it can give color - pigmented
This division is arbitrary: there are many mixed compounds that can be classified into at least two groups. So there are impregnations that can be tinted, and there are paints with protective properties. The difference is in the effectiveness of the protection. Impregnations primarily protect the wood, and imparting color is a secondary task. With paints it's the other way around. Their main task is to create a beautiful coating, and protection is a concomitant effect. If you need both good protection and high-quality coating, take the impregnation without tinting, and after drying, apply paint.
Another example of a mixed composition is oils with wax. These compositions combine the properties of both oils and wax, due to which the wood retains its appearance for a longer time.
The question of which group to give preference is up to everyone to decide for themselves. Different tools solve different problems, and it is important to choose the right properties that you need first.
To paint lining in “dry” rooms inside the house, you can use any type of paint. Here you simply decide on the requirements for decorative appearance surfaces. If the lining is dry, it can not be impregnated with protective compounds, or you can choose paint/varnish/wax with appropriate additives. You can paint it only on one side, leaving the back side untreated.
If the lining will be used in wet or unheated rooms, on the balcony, you must first soak it well with protective compounds on all sides, maybe twice. Only after the impregnation has dried can it be painted, varnished, in general, given decorative properties. Another point: when installing the lining on a wall or ceiling, it has to be cut into pieces. Places of cuts in wet areas it is also necessary to coat it with the composition. It is not necessary to wait until it dries, but it is necessary to process it.
There is one very important nuance, which many amateur decorators overlook. If you want to get the lining painted professional level, you need to process each board separately: sand it, paint it, dry it, and only then assemble the surface from the already painted lining. That is, mount already fully processed boards on the wall or ceiling. Only with this approach will the surface of the lining have the same color from any point.
It’s difficult to paint the entire surface of a clapboard wall well
If you paint an already assembled surface, unpainted areas remain in the grooves and recesses, making it difficult to sand large areas. You definitely won't get a perfectly flat surface. The quality of finishing in this option is not above average. It is permissible to paint a finished surface if you are renewing the paint job. This must be done at different intervals, depending on the operating conditions and the properties of the paintwork material.
Correctly, the painting technology looks like this.
There can be many layers: it depends on the hiding power of the paint and on what effect you want to get. But in any case, one rule remains: there should be little composition on the brush. The exception is impregnation or primer. They are applied with a well-moistened brush, but only those without pigment. When applying pigmented protective compositions, the rules for paints apply - the minimum required amount of the composition is well shaded.
Sometimes, even with careful rubbing of the paint, stains are clearly visible. This is not a bad paint, but the properties of wood: in some places the pores absorb better, in others worse. In order to achieve an even color in this case, the surface is first primed. You can use any wood primer or colorless matte varnish (can be water-based). After drying, the surface is sanded (yep, again) and then the required number of layers of paint are applied. Only in this case, after the first layer of paintwork, grinding is rarely required, and if necessary, then in some places, more often on a tenon or groove.
Watch the video to see how to evenly apply glaze, oil or wax.
If it is needed furniture quality painting, even more layers: first the stain is applied, then two layers of primer. After drying, it is sanded until the surface is completely matte, first with grain 280, then 320, after removing dust, it is applied finishing layer- varnish. An example of such work is in the video.
A pronounced wood pattern can be achieved using glaze, pigmented oil or wax. These compounds apply quite tightly, almost painting over the structure of the wood fibers. Any of the compositions described above can be applied with a brush or roller.
When applying paintwork materials, take very little, first applying them in fragments along the entire length of the lining. Then, using a brush or roller, the applied strokes are shaded over the entire surface. After leaving them to soak for 5-10 minutes, to reveal the texture, take a soft, lint-free cloth and remove most of the oil. As a result, the pattern appears much brighter than in its original state: the grooves retain large quantity There is almost no pigmented product left on the protruding parts. The result is a pronounced texture. This technique is also called brushing or texturing the lining. In interiors, wood processed in this way looks very decorative: both on the walls and on the ceiling.
The process can be observed in the video. Three samples were painted: two with the same oil with pigment, one with colorless. 5 minutes after painting, one of the pigmented blanks is wiped to reveal the design. To preserve the wood after the pigment has dried (24 hours or more, read on the packaging), the lining is coated with two layers of colorless oil (glaze, wax). In areas of intensive use, you can also coat it with matte varnish.
It is often necessary to paint wood White color, but so that the veins are visible. They also say to create the effect of bleached oak. There are several ways:
It’s difficult to say which composition to choose - you need to try. It is advisable to paint the lining with several compositions and compare the results. Effect when used different means slightly different, but still very dependent on the wood. The reviews are also very different - some whitened with tinting, others with oil. Soils are rarely used for these purposes, but mainly because not everyone knows their properties.
City dwellers want to preserve the natural color of wood as much as possible. For those for whom wood in the house is a boring everyday thing, paint the interior lining in some unusual color. Modern paintwork materials allow you to achieve different effects. For example, textured or brushed lining, but in two colors. This technique is often used.
Brushed lining in two colors is an excellent choice for decorating walls
The trick is to apply two layers different color. The first layer is applied dark color, the second - light or brighter. After playing with colors and the order of their application, you can create your own version. Watch the video - how to get lining brushed in two colors.
Painting in two colors may not be the same. You can make the recesses a darker color, and only slightly tint the face (front part) or do everything exactly the opposite. You will get a striped wall made of clapboard - the effect of a slatted wall.
Painting techniques and methods are great, but how? Just. There are quite a few interesting options. The designers' latest finds are a clapboard wall in a room with smooth walls. It looks creative and interesting. And most often such a wall is made using the brushing technique.
An interesting effect is achieved by combining fittings of different thicknesses - in the photo, thin ones are inserted between wide boards. Moreover, they are painted in different shades of the same color. The combination turns out interesting and fresh.
Lining is not necessarily just a flat board with small grooves on one side, which is also called eurolining. There are different profiles, including those with waves and troughs. From them you can assemble interesting walls, the relief of which is emphasized by painting.
You can assemble interesting reliefs from linings of different profiles. To make it look more interesting, highlight the reliefs or whiten them
As usual, in the interior, a lot depends on the light. Several non-standardly designed lamps - long translucent strips behind which lamps are hidden, installed in the middle of the ceiling - and the interior is completely transformed. This design can be used to decorate rooms for young people, creative rooms, etc.
You can play not only with light, but also with color: in the lighting zone, paint the lining in a more light color, emphasizing this zone in this way.
If you have good drawing skills, you can paint the lining. Just don’t forget to then cover the entire painting with colorless oil or varnish to preserve it longer. This technique can be used when
Rigidly defined clapboard panels look great in the living room and hallway. In the same vein, you can decorate the wall in the dining area in the kitchen. Only its quality and coloring must be perfect.
The honey shade of the lining is repeated on the ceiling
Treatment for a rustic-style interior can be deliberately imperfect. These are rooms with a masculine character.
The rustic style will appeal to men. In this case, painting the lining using the brushing technique is the norm. Moreover, the colors are chosen dark
As if in contrast - light walls. The lining is whitewashed and the beams are painted dark. Despite traditional materials, used for centuries, the look of such a room is modern and stylish.
An excellent combination is light walls with the effect of bleached oak and dark massive beams. It's practically a win-win option.
Lining is also used in the decoration of bathrooms. Impregnation here needs to be given maximum attention, but if it is done at the proper level, impregnation is protected from moisture, then there should be no problems. And the interior, you see, is very interesting - warm colors wood combined with bright marble is a great move.
Lining is also used for. You just need to fill it horizontally - this way you can expand the small space. And it's better like this small area look bright hues, maybe with a dark border.

The interior decoration of a country house must be durable, safe and durable. And if in winter it is empty and not heated, then it is also moisture resistant, since the risk of condensation in this case is very high. Not every material can cope with such tasks, however, if you properly process and decorate natural wood lining, it will last for decades.
Depending on how to paint the lining inside the country house, it will have different appearance: will retain the natural pattern and shade or acquire a new one. And protective compounds for impregnating wood improve its performance characteristics.
Lining in the design of a country house
Any wood material must be coated with protective compounds. Without them, the finish will quickly lose its appearance and become unusable. Paints, varnishes and impregnations perform several functions:
Different types of coatings solve one or more problems. Therefore for best protection you have to choose several compositions at once. How to paint the lining inside the house depends on exactly what functions are assigned to the coating and what appearance of the finish you would like to achieve in the end.
All wood treatment products are conventionally divided into protective and decorative. Some of them need to be combined, others can be used independently. Ideally, primary processing should be carried out before installation. wooden lining, so the products will be protected from adverse factors from all sides. If the siding is already installed and has a coating, it will need to be removed or sanded.
Note! Eurolining, if it is manufactured according to the standard, is already covered with protective or protective-decorative compounds.
The primary tasks of these compounds are to protect the tree from pests, mold, mildew, moisture, and changes temperature regime and extending the service life of the lining and finishing coating.
Coating the lining with a protective compound before installation
Common products for treating wooden surfaces:
Oil-wax and linseed oil do not require additional processing, as they give the surface a distinct pattern, and the color can be tinted. It is also permissible not to paint drying oil, but it will have to be renewed frequently. Primer and antiseptics are used as a base for finishing.
Lining coated with drying oil
These compositions must be selected taking into account the condition of the finish. There are products that preserve and emphasize the natural appearance of wood, make annual rings more pronounced, and add color. Others, on the contrary, hide the design under a thick layer of color. The first ones should be used if the lining has no defects (grades Extra, A and AB) and old paint. Second, for products with numerous damages (grades B and C) and coatings that cannot be removed.
Transparent compositions for finishing wooden lining: varnishes, stains, some paints. Opaque: acrylic and oil paint, water-based.
Acrylic, alkyd and water-based varnishes are most suitable for interior work. Completely preserve the natural appearance of wood. You can add pigment to the composition, which will give the lining a tint. The varnished surface has a glossy or matte texture. Additionally, they protect the finish from moisture, discoloration and minor mechanical damage. May contain antiseptic additives.
Varnish coating for lining
Gives wood a distinct structure and any color. It does not form a film on the surface, but penetrates deeply. The material is transparent, so the lining underneath should be without significant defects. In addition to decorative, it performs a protective function.
Options for shades of decorative azure
It has almost the same effect as decorative azure. Paints wood a rich brown color in different shades. Stain is often used to artificially age lining. It is important to consider that it does not protect enough from moisture.
Shades of stain
Forms a thin layer on the surface of the wood, through which the texture and natural shade of the wood are visible. Such paints hide minor finishing defects.
Translucent paint on lining
Thick opaque coating. Forms a film on the surface. Can have any shade. Maintains color and integrity for a long time. This lining paint requires updating approximately every 5 years. Has a pungent odor.
Coating the lining with oil paint
A more durable opaque finish than oil paint. It has virtually no odor and dries in a short time. Can create matte and glossy finish. Its only drawback is its high cost.
Matte acrylic paint finish
The paints are odorless and dry quickly. They form a matte or semi-matte texture. Suitable for dry rooms only.
Water-based paint for decorating a country house
The video shows an example of a competent combination of protective and decorative coatings for lining, applied at home, without the use of special tools.
A wide selection of coatings allows you to choose absolutely any color and texture for the lining. In a country house, it is better to give preference to the most durable and unpretentious compositions that do not have to be updated frequently.
If the panels have many defects or an old coating, then thick, opaque paint is indispensable. Improve appearance base surface It is possible by removing the top layer of wood, but this is too labor-intensive and time-consuming.
Unusual combination of paint shades for lining
The colors and shades of the lining can be combined in the decoration of one room. This technique allows you to divide a spacious room into zones. Decorate or diversify the design, place accents.
Color accents in clapboard finishing
Due to the color of the finish, you can achieve some visual effects. Light shades expand the space, dark shades, on the contrary, make it smaller. White ceiling looks taller than brown.
The color scheme for the lining can match the palette of shades used in the interior or contrast.
Harmonious combination color palette textiles and walls
Protection and painting of the lining is carried out in several stages. The first one is preparation. If the finish is new, then before covering the lining, it is enough to clean its surface from dust with a solution of 5 liters of water and 150 grams. soda After drying, you can apply the first layer.
If there are old coatings, sanding with pumice or sandpaper. It's better to do it grinder. The goal of this procedure is to create a rough texture that will easily adhere to coatings.
Cleaning walls of old paint with a sander
If thick paints are applied to the lining, you can clean them off mechanically(a construction hairdryer and spatula, a grinder) or special chemical solutions. Both methods do not guarantee a perfect result, but it's worth a try. This option is better than painting the clapboard inside the house directly over the old finish.
The coating may not be removed, but then it should be degreased. It is imperative to remove areas with crumbling paint, air cavities and clean until smooth.
If there are serious defects, such as fallen knots, it is necessary to fill the hole and clean it smooth.
If the coating could not be applied to an uninstalled lining, then the joints should be coated more thoroughly in order to process as much as possible large area. The composition must be applied in a thin and uniform layer. To do this, you can use either a brush and roller, or mechanical tools. If the protection is applied in several layers, then it is important to dry each of them thoroughly before painting the lining with the next composition.
The method of applying the topcoat depends on its type. General rules for carrying out work:
In hard-to-reach places, you can use a foam sponge for painting. It is best to apply the composition to the entire area in a short time. If you need to take a break, the joint should be placed in an inconspicuous area.
Applying paint with a spray gun
For interior decoration of a country house, lining is one of the best options. It does not require complex maintenance, and it is enough to restore the surface once every 7-10 years (depending on the type of coating). If you treat it according to all the rules and taking into account the characteristics of operation, the material will last at least 25 years.
Both internal and external wall cladding with clapboard is an excellent solution for an owner who cares about the condition of his home. Interior decoration will create a cozy and healthy atmosphere in the room. The external one will protect the facade of the building from unnecessary damage.
In this article we will dwell in detail on why to treat the lining, what protective composition is best to do this, what is the application technology paint and varnish materials, and also what amount to expect when painting.
How to treat the lining inside the house? This question is often asked by owners who have used wood in the interior decoration of their home.
Today, processing lining inside the house is not a problem. You just need to choose the right protective coating that will suit a particular room.
Some are more suitable for rooms with high humidity, others perfectly protect boards from ultraviolet rays, and some generally increase the strength of wood and prevent the risk of premature abrasion.
But also an important factor in processing is that the defense should look good on the boards. It should not distort the natural structure of the tree. On the contrary, its task is to emphasize the naturalness of the material used and blend harmoniously with the rest of the interior.
Most often, the following substances are used to protect wood:
If we talk specifically about how to treat the lining in the house, then the choice of protective mixtures is quite large.
1. Soil
This mixture is not only a complete primer, but also an excellent bio protective agent. Primer – antiseptic is suitable for processing both indoors and outdoors.
Moreover, the use of a primer is appropriate even on an affected tree. The primer, along with a textured coating that is designed to provide protection, will extend the life of the board and keep it neat and laid.
2. Protective and decorative
One of the main qualities of the mixture is that it gives the desired color to the wooden surface. By the way, protective and decorative coatings are an innovation in the market of paints and varnishes.
But it is very important that even when treated with such a composition, the tree structure still remains visible.
They are very convenient to use, since you do not need to use a primer first, because they already contain antiseptics. Moreover, they are resistant to fading and temperature changes.
Some types are suitable for use on damp wood. They are great for indoor and external works.
The final coating has a soft semi-matte tone. According to the manufacturers of these products, the warranty is 8 years.
3. Scuba gear
Continuing to discuss the topic of how to treat the surface inside the house, you should definitely pay attention to water-based products. For work inside the house, professionals recommend aqualak.
Pros of using scuba tank:
For external work, products with water-repellent additives are suitable, which protect wood from dirt and moisture. Of course, it is not in the budget class, but it provides the owner with durability and ease of maintenance.
4. Oils
Quite often, the surface of wood is treated with oils or their combined mixtures.
Oil coating provides protection against contamination, moisture and dust, due to the fact that it penetrates deep into the structure of the tree.
An important advantage when using varnish is also that there is no solvent aroma, but you can only smell the smell of the plant on which the oil is based. Moreover, this composition is very easily tinted, with which you can get the desired shade
We answered the question of how to treat the lining, but there was one more question: how to treat the lining inside the house?
Its importance lies in the fact that all compositions are different in consistency, so you should pay special attention to the selection of tools so that applying the protective layer is convenient and effective.
An approximate list of what is needed when applying paint and varnish mixtures:
This process is the first step when painting with any composition.
It involves cleaning the boards from any contaminants.
If there are difficulties with selecting bleach, then it is best to use a special stain.
After the bleaching process is completed and the lining becomes a clean canvas, you can proceed to the second stage - priming. The third stage is applying paint.
Tools needed for whitening:
Video - glazing of wooden surfaces:
If the wooden surface has already been painted several times, then before applying a fresh layer of varnish, it is necessary to evaluate the quality.
If it is still good, then you can wipe it with a 2% soda solution.
To prepare such a solution you need 10 liters of heated water and 300 grams of soda.
After treatment with soda solution, the working surface should be puttied and treated with drying oil. After this procedure, all wooden surfaces in the house will be significantly transformed.
If painting the lining inside the house is the first time, professionals advise adhering to a certain technology in this matter in order to avoid smudges and unevenness.
Paintwork products should be applied using bristle tips. It is very important that it is thin. Otherwise, a large amount of paint may become unusable. To prevent the lint from leaving a mark on the walls and ceiling being treated, it is better to treat them with a soap solution before starting painting.

Particular care should be taken when applying the final layer. To ensure an even coating, apply protective composition It's best to start at the top. Hard-to-reach places, for example, frames, baseboards, and the space near radiators, are best painted with a brush that has a diameter of no more than 5 cm.
It is best to start painting the door from the paneled side.
A dry brush will help prevent paint smudges. Upward movements of the brush will remove unnecessary imperfections from the surface.

The price of painting the lining for one square meter equal to approximately 280 rubles.
One square meter of the lining itself will cost the buyer approximately 320 rubles. But the cost of the boards is significantly influenced by the wood from which they are made and its grade.
Varnish for treating wood can be bought for approximately 260 rubles per liter.
We hope that this article will help every owner paint the lining with high quality, as well as choose the right materials. Good luck with your work.
One of the popular options for finishing the surfaces of a wooden house or cottage is cladding with thin planks, known as lining. The result is a cozy feel for the rooms, allowing you to relax in a healthy, environmentally friendly environment.
Impregnation for lining inside the house, which can be purchased in specialized stores and applied in accordance with the manufacturers' instructions, helps ensure that the interior remains unchanged for a long time. There are other means that can be used to coat wood.
Some owners have doubts about the need to impregnate wood paneling inside a suburban building. If the boards are not coated, changes will be noticeable on them after some time. With poor ventilation, the lining will appear blue; as a result of intense sunlight, it may become dark gray.
The blueness is explained by the action of microorganisms, which can be gotten rid of with the help of active oxidizing agents, such as chlorine. The procedure is not very easy to perform and is accompanied by the release of an unpleasant odor.
The plaque, which has turned gray from the sun, can be removed by mechanical grinding of the lining, but positive effect that won't last long. It is more advisable to carry out the treatment immediately after finishing, so as not to have problems later.
In addition, the coating transforms the wood and makes the interior special. Lining coated with waterproof impregnation can last longer even in an irregularly heated, damp room.
How to cover the lining inside a house is an easily resolved question, because there are many products on sale for different climatic zones and types of buildings.
Composite impregnations are designed to perform several functions, the main ones of which are the following:
There are products designed primarily to protect the lining, and compositions created for a decorative effect. Many drugs perform multiple functions equally successfully.
There are a large number of treatment products available on the market. wood materials. Information about the most popular drugs will help potential buyers make it easier to choose a purchase.
The lining located inside the house next to heating devices must be protected from possible ignition. For this purpose, flame retardant impregnations are used, which are not easy to apply yourself.
It is much more convenient to buy clapboard for the dacha, pre-impregnated with fire-fighting substances. In rooms with a moisture concentration not exceeding 70%, the lining can be coated with solutions of moderate resistance. Inside the house, the applied composition will remain for a long time, it costs much less than a weather-resistant solution.
A strong risk factor for wood damage is microbiological exposure. They get rid of it with the help of antiseptics. Antimicrobial solutions that can be used to impregnate wood cope with biological contaminants and prevent the emergence of new areas of mold and rot. Antiseptics have a pungent odor that does not disappear for a long time, and you need to pay attention to this when purchasing, having studied reviews of the product.
Preparations that cost more than conventional disinfectants can not only protect against microorganisms, but also at the same time improve the aesthetic impression and increase the ability to repel water molecules.
Special liquids based on water, alcohol or organic solvents that penetrate deep into the wood and create a specific color or shade are called stains. The term has a foreign synonym – beitz. Solutions do not protect, but only tint the wood, although they exist special types expensive stains with a pronounced protective effect.
Note! In any case, after applying stain to the lining inside the dacha, it must be varnished on top. Otherwise, the tree will not retain its original appearance.
Sometimes wood planks have dark spots, the appearance of which remains a mystery. You can treat such areas with bleach, carefully selecting the concentration and exposure time. You can practice on lining waste, see how many tones the wood base is lightened by, and draw the appropriate conclusions.
Varnishes have a good protective effect on the lining inside a cottage or residential building. They can also be used to cover the lining to achieve a decorative effect. Acrylic-based varnish compositions decorate the surface well and create a biological barrier on it.
Due to the minimal allergenicity indoors, it makes sense to use aqualak. It takes longer to dry than solutions in organic liquids, but is safer for health. With aqualas you can create a completely or slightly matte, as well as a glossy surface.
If you add color to the solutions, you get a colored product with the desired shade. This composition will not last long on the outside, so it is not recommended for outdoor use. Water-based varnishes create a barrier to steam penetration, eliminating contamination of open pores.
Note! Some modifications of aqualak contain antimicrobial additives, which significantly improves the safety of the lining inside the house.
Other compositions contain substances that neutralize the effects of UV rays. It makes sense to use such compositions on walls that are illuminated by the sun for most of the day.
Alkyd varnish solutions are extremely durable; after drying, the coating can last for 10 years. Usually, inside a wooden house or cottage, it is recommended to cover the floors with such compounds. For lovers of regular color solutions rooms, you can apply alkyd varnishes to the walls. If the desire to change the interior arises earlier, you can spread a different color of varnish on top.
A huge group of different wood paints can be used to cover the lining inside the cottage.
The “veterans” of the market are oil paints of all colors and shades, which last on a dry surface for more than 7 years. After the expiration date, the paint layer may become discolored and peel off, in which case the painting will have to be repeated. Pre-treatment of the base with drying oil improves the fixation of pigments on wood. Drying out vegetable oils cover all pores with a polymer film, which impairs vapor permeability, but improves the quality of the coating.
Note! Oil paints- the cheapest material for covering lining, which has disadvantages.
Due to clogging of the natural pores of wood, the indoor microclimate worsens. When painting, active evaporation of a solvent occurs bad smell. Vapors from organic liquids are harmful to health, so painting can only be done in summer when open windows and doors.
Acrylate paints are also made on a strong-smelling base; painting must be done carefully, with careful ventilation of the rooms. Acrylate paint is applied faster and easier than oil-based paints and forms a resilient, elastic coating that is long-lasting and durable. The walls inside the dacha, painted with acrylics, withstand the winter cold well, even in the absence of heating for a long time.
In addition to drying oil, which is made from drying oils, other oil compositions that are well absorbed by wood are used to cover the lining inside the dacha. They form a matte or shiny surface when gently rubbed in and then polished. Waxes have a similar chemical structure, the difference lies in the replacement of the glycerol ester with a higher monohydric alcohol.
Waxes are very durable and form a shiny flat surface when properly distributed and applied to the lining. Wax coatings can last for decades in cases where there are no large mechanical loads. Wax glaze is sold in a ready-to-use condition. Hard waxes must be softened by melting in a water bath before application. To ensure that the wax is distributed evenly, the lining should be pre-primed.
A good result will be obtained if you cover the boards with a mixture of wax and oils that combine the advantages of both components.
There are several types of lining; they differ in the number and shape of joints on the resulting surface. Depending on this you will need different quantities efforts to prepare it.
In any case, before covering the lining with any means, you need to carefully examine all the boards. If there are dark spots, local lightening is carried out with bleach. Then the entire surface can be lightly washed with a diluted soda solution and wait until the water has completely evaporated. Only after this can the wood be treated with primer and the base compound or immediately with impregnation.
The cracks are covered with wood putty, everything is thoroughly cleaned with sandpaper.
To more effectively secure the decorative layer, the wood is primed. Very carefully you need to distribute the primer mass in the seams. To apply primer over the main part of the area, you can use a spray gun; at the joints it is better to prime with a brush.
Each product has its own application characteristics, which are necessarily described in the manufacturer’s recommendations. The accompanying documents must be carefully studied and the compositions prepared in accordance with the instructions. All products are applied in several stages; each next stage can only be done after the surface has dried, and the final layer should be the thinnest. Following these rules will help you get a reliable and beautiful coating.
How to process lining inside a house - this is a question that concerns many who use this product for decoration. different rooms. Of course, the material can be left in its original form, but then it must be taken into account that the service life of the coating will be only 5-6 years. This perspective does not seem entirely appropriate.
It is necessary to process the material in order to improve its performance properties and maintain an attractive appearance (increase the visual impression). It should be noted that working with lining consists of several stages, each of which is important.
So, lining processing is necessary to improve the following characteristics:
Processing the lining allows you to extend the service life of the material It is impossible not to note the decorative factor. It consists in applying a substance to the surface of the material that improves it decorative characteristics. Moreover, the surface can remain the same as it was originally, or be completely transformed.
The modern market of construction and finishing materials offers a wide selection of different compositions that can be used for this type of work. Processing of lining inside the house is carried out independently, without the use of special equipment.
Processing of lining must be carried out with special compounds On a note! For getting good result you need to purchase products that have the necessary certificates and are also produced by trusted manufacturers. The fact is that there are many fakes on the market that are not only useless, but also harmful to the human body.
Such substances are used to protect wood from the formation of living organisms (mold, fungi, insects and even mice). The material is treated with this preparation before facing, due to the fact that it must be applied to the entire surface of the product. This procedure is especially indispensable when it is planned to use lining on objects with high level humidity.
Applying an antiseptic helps protect wood from mold, germs and fungus It should be borne in mind that this solution performs exclusively protective functions. Therefore, it is applied before using decorative components. When choosing antiseptics, pay attention to the place of application. The label must indicate that the product is intended for indoor use.
The work is performed as follows:
Work on treating the lining with an antiseptic must be done separately for each element Thus, the resulting wood is resistant to various microorganisms that multiply in a humid environment.
These compounds are necessary to reduce the likelihood of fire. Apply this material pretty hard. Impregnation of the lining with fire retardants will be much more effective if it was done at the enterprise. Although self-application of the substance cannot be ruled out.
The composition is divided into two groups, which differ in their mode of action:
Impregnation with fire retardant reduces the likelihood of fire of the material You need to understand that these solutions cannot completely protect against fire. They only increase the time required for the treated elements to ignite.
To know! Now there are solutions that combine the actions of an antiseptic and a fire retardant. This is a combined composition that has a combination of their positive properties.
The primer is applied before applying decorative substances to the lining. This is necessary in order to increase the adhesion of materials, as well as reduce their consumption.
Before applying varnish or paint, the lining must be treated with a primer The external parts of the product are processed. It must be taken into account that priming can be single-layer or two-layer. This depends on whether the treatment was carried out with other compounds, as well as what type of wood is used.
On a note! Currently, primers combine a lot of positive qualities. They not only reduce the consumption of subsequent materials, but also serve to protect against fungus and mold.
Stain is used as an impregnation if colorless varnish or wax is planned to be used in the future. It evens out the color of the wood and protects it from changes. Currently, this material has another protective property. It includes antiseptic functions.
Stain improves the color of wood and is also used as an antiseptic. Before work, you need to decide on the choice of solution, which can be on different bases (alcohol, water and oil). The composition is available in finished or dry form. But the application method is completely the same.
The main task of wax is to protect the surface from damage, as well as to eliminate the possibility of toxic vapors appearing. The last factor applies to cases where lining is used for cladding saunas and baths. That is, it is necessary to prevent the release of toxic substances when exposed to high temperatures.
Impregnation with wax must be done using a soft cloth. A purely decorative effect cannot be ruled out. The treated surface acquires a deep and even color.
The work is carried out according to the following principle:
Some manufacturers indicate additional conditions that are necessary for applying wax.
Varnish is necessary to give the surface beautiful view and protect it from damage. It is better to treat the internal perimeter of premises with water-based acrylic compounds. This solution can be transparent or translucent. If required, it can be painted by adding color.
Varnishing allows you to give the lining a more impressive look and protect it from damage The following application technology looks very nice:
This principle allows you to preserve the natural texture of the wood.
Paints can also be used, but they are rarely used, since they completely hide the natural surface of the material.
Both internal and external wall cladding with clapboard is an excellent solution for an owner who cares about the condition of his home. Interior decoration will create a cozy and healthy atmosphere in the room. The external one will protect the facade of the building from unnecessary damage.
In this article we will dwell in detail on why to treat the lining, what protective composition is best to do this, what is the technology for applying paints and varnishes, and also what amount should you expect when painting.
How to treat the lining inside the house? This question is often asked by owners who have used wood for wood.
Today, processing lining inside the house is not a problem. You just need to choose the right protective coating that will suit a particular room.
Some are more suitable for rooms with high humidity, others perfectly protect boards from ultraviolet rays, and some generally increase the strength of wood and prevent the risk of premature abrasion.
But also an important factor in processing is that the defense should look good on the boards. It should not distort the natural structure of the tree. On the contrary, its task is to emphasize the naturalness of the material used and blend harmoniously with the rest of the interior.
Most often, the following substances are used to protect wood:
If we talk specifically about how to treat the lining in the house, then the choice of protective mixtures is quite large.
1. Soil
This mixture is not only a complete primer, but also an excellent bio-protective agent. Primer – antiseptic is suitable for processing both indoors and outdoors.
Moreover, the use of a primer is appropriate even on an affected tree. The primer, along with a textured coating that is designed to provide protection, will extend the life of the board and keep it neat and laid.
2. Protective and decorative
One of the main qualities of the mixture is that it gives the desired color to the wooden surface. By the way, protective and decorative coatings are an innovation in the market of paints and varnishes.
But it is very important that even when treated with such a composition, the tree structure still remains visible.
They are very convenient to use, since you do not need to use a primer first, because they already contain antiseptics. Moreover, they are resistant to fading and temperature changes.
Some types are suitable for use on damp wood. They are great for interior and exterior work.
The final coating has a soft semi-matte tone. According to the manufacturers of these products, the warranty is 8 years.
3. Scuba gear
Continuing to discuss the topic of how to treat the surface inside the house, you should definitely pay attention to water-based products. For work inside the house, professionals recommend aqualak.
Pros of using scuba tank:
For external work, products with water-repellent additives are suitable, which protect wood from dirt and moisture. Of course, it is not in the budget class, but it provides the owner with durability and ease of maintenance.
4. Oils
Quite often, the surface of wood is treated with oils or their combined mixtures.
Oil coating provides protection against contamination, moisture and dust, due to the fact that it penetrates deep into the structure of the tree.
An important advantage when using varnish is also that there is no solvent aroma, but you can only smell the smell of the plant on which the oil is based. Moreover, this composition is very easily tinted, with which you can get the desired shade
We answered the question of how to treat the lining, but there was one more question: how to treat the lining inside the house?
Its importance lies in the fact that all compositions are different in consistency, so you should pay special attention to the selection of tools so that applying the protective layer is convenient and effective.
An approximate list of what is needed when applying paint and varnish mixtures:
This process is the first step when painting with any composition.
It involves cleaning the boards from any contaminants.
If there are difficulties with selecting bleach, then it is best to use a special stain.
After the bleaching process is completed and the lining becomes a clean canvas, you can proceed to the second stage - priming. The third stage is applying paint.
Tools needed for whitening:
Video - glazing of wooden surfaces:
If the wooden surface has already been painted several times, then before applying a fresh layer of varnish, it is necessary to evaluate the quality.
If it is still good, then you can wipe it with a 2% soda solution.
To prepare such a solution you need 10 liters of heated water and 300 grams of soda.
After treatment with soda solution, the working surface should be puttied and treated with drying oil. After this procedure, all wooden surfaces in the house will be significantly transformed.
If painting the lining inside the house is the first time, professionals advise adhering to a certain technology in this matter in order to avoid smudges and unevenness.
Paintwork products should be applied using bristle tips. It is very important that it is thin. Otherwise, a large amount of paint may become unusable. To prevent the lint from leaving a mark on the walls and ceiling being treated, it is better to treat them with a soap solution before starting painting.
