Floor boring, preparatory work
We think that you understand that the work on cycling parquet is accompanied by a large dust formation.
If parquet baking is made in a separate room, close all the doors to the adjacent rooms, to prevent dust from getting on furniture and walls.
Dust, when crocheting, can get on the carpets in the neighboring rooms and remove it from the carpets will be very difficult.
Therefore, if there is a danger of getting dust to the neighboring rooms, where there are carpets and upholstered furniture, it is best to remove the carpets, and cover the soft furniture with cellophane.
From the room where the parquet will be baked, it is necessary to remove all the furniture that stands on the floor and dismantle the plinth. The freed floor area must be thoroughly cleaned from dust and dirt.
It may be necessary to thoroughly wash the floor and dry it.
Floor boring, working tools and materials necessary for parquet baking with own hands
The following tool is required for operation:
Grinding machine (can be bought or rented in a construction shop);
-building vacuum cleaner;
-shaped abrasive belts for the grinding machine, numbered from 40 to 100;
-respirator;
-protective glasses;
-special construction suit or overalls;
-lacquers for parquet.
Safety during work on the cyclone of parquet
At work it is necessary to use a respirator and safety glasses, to avoid getting debris in the eyes and dust into the lungs.
To prevent injury, the worker should not have hanging clothes. A sewing machine can tighten hanging clothes, long hair and even a long beard.
Electrical wires should be qualitatively insulated, and when working with a sewing machine, it is necessary to monitor the wire.
If the machine hooks on the wire, the insulation will be disrupted and there is a danger to the life and health of the worker due to a short circuit or electric shock.
If the wire has fallen under the machine, immediately disconnect the tool from the mains, check the wire and if the insulation is broken, do the insulation restoration work with the electrical tape.
Floor biting, professional advice
Working with wood, there should not be any shoes on your feet, you can use only soft socks or felt slippers.
Even slippers can damage an unprotected tree and the work will have to be repeated, to avoid scratches.
If the floor has "steps", these protrusions must be removed before the start of the cycle.
The sewing machine must move along the wood.
Therefore, in order not to disturb the structure of the tree, carefully follow the direction of the fiber of the board and you must move in the direction of the fibers. If you break the direction, a qualitative cycle will not work, as you break the structure of the parquet.
To prevent the formation of depressions in the floor tree, keep the sewing machine gently, but do not press it.
Remember, if you make a hollow in the floor, getting rid of it will be very difficult, and maybe completely impossible.
Parquet coding, progress of work in stages
Using a sewing machine, remove the old varnish from the floor surface. Lacquer flooring fades with time, damage and your task is to reach the living tree, i.e. parquet.
At the first stage, sandpaper No. 40 is used, it is refilled in the drum of a sewing machine.
In this case, the sewing machine should move at a right angle to the parquet installation line.
Important! Do not remove the layer more than 3 mm. at once.
After the first stage of grinding is completed, walk along the parquet with a flat grinder.
Remember that your task is to make the floor smooth and smooth. You can achieve this by changing sandpaper from 40 to 100 numbers.
In the corners of the room, use a grinder to work with corners. Fix all the cracks.
If you add parquet dust to the putty, the putty will be the same color as the floor.
This procedure will help to disguise the putty spots and make them invisible.
Allow the putty to dry.
After this, walk through the grinder in which the grinding paper is padded under No. 100.
Tips for applying varnish
Before applying the varnish, use a construction vacuum cleaner to collect all dust and debris.
The construction vacuum cleaner has good power and can perfectly clean the dust.
When making varnishing work, use a respirator. Qualitative work requires applying the varnish in three layers.
After the first layer of varnish has dried, a second coat of varnish is applied.
Wait until the second layer dries and go through the surface of the floor with a sanding machine with sandpaper for # 100.
Once again, use a construction vacuum cleaner to remove dust and work on applying the third, final coat of varnish.
