如何維護你家的裝飾木板？
Wood decks take a beating. They are constantly exposed to the damaging effects of the sun, standing water, snow, pets and foot traffic. Without preventive maintenance, your wood deck will begin to turn gray and age, and if ignored for too long the deck may begin to deteriorate which can lead to costly repairs. Follow these steps to protect your deck against an early demise.
木板往往受損嚴重。木板由于經(jīng)常暴露在陽光、積水、大雪之下，以及被寵物、人們步行踐踏而會遭到破損。如果沒有提前維護好，那么你的木板將開始變灰和老化，如果長時間忽視，地板更會開始惡化，從而導(dǎo)致昂貴的維修費用。遵照以下的這些步驟可保護木板免受早期損壞影響。
Deck cleaning and prep
木板清潔以及準備工作
As with all coating projects, preparing the surface is the key to a long-lasting finish. First, you must remove the dirt, dust, mildew, and previous coatings. Most people choose power washing to clean their deck. Deck cleaning products can also make the job easier. Ask your Diamond Vogel store for more information on deck cleaning products. Before you stain, the deck must be dry. The deck should dry for two to three days before moving on.
與所有涂層施工項目一樣，對木板面層做好充分護理是讓其光潔如新的關(guān)鍵所在。首先，您必須去除木板表面的污垢，灰塵，霉斑和舊有的涂層。大多數(shù)人選擇動力洗滌來清潔他們的木板。專用木板清潔產(chǎn)品也可以使這項工作更容易完成。你可以咨詢當?shù)氐拿绹?a href="http://banjia668.cn/" target="_blank" class="keylink">鉆石涂料經(jīng)銷店了解更多木板清潔產(chǎn)品的信息。在為木板上色之前，必須先等到其表面充分干燥，一般要讓其保持2到3天的干燥時間，方可繼續(xù)施工。

Selecting the best deck stain
選擇優(yōu)質(zhì)木板漆上色
Applying stain to your deck is one of the easiest ways to protect your investment.Stains that penetrate are preferred since failure doesn’t typically result in peeling. For the ultimate protection look for a penetrating stain that takes advantage of trans-oxide pigments. Trans-oxide pigments deliver a beautiful, rich, clear color that really highlight the natural beauty of the wood. Diamond Vogel’s Grain Stain Semi-Transparent Deck Stain uses trans-oxide pigments and provides long term protection and beauty for your deck.
為你的木板上色是保護你的木板最簡單的方法之一。首選滲透性強的油漆，因為就算出現(xiàn)變故也不會導(dǎo)致油漆剝落。要達到最好的保護效果就要尋找一種抗氧化的滲透力強的顏料?？寡趸伭暇哂忻利?，豐富，清晰的顏色，真正突出了木材的自然美。 Diamond Vogel’s Grain Stain Semi-Transparent Deck Stain采用抗氧化顏料，為你的木板提供長期保護讓其長期保持美感。
Applying stain
如何施工上色
You can apply the stain by brush, roller, or spray, but for best results brush the stain into the decking. Protect all areas not receiving stain with tape and plastic. Two coats of stain are recommended for maximum durability. Many stains require an application technique called “wet-on-wet.” This is when the second coat of stain is applied before the first coat is thoroughly dried. Apply stain to the full length of a plank to avoid lap marks and generally you can work on three planks at a time. Once a section of planks is stained, recoat with the second coat and move to the next section of planks.
您可以使用刷子，滾筒或噴霧器來施工，但要獲得最佳效果，最好就是直接刷到木板上。用膠帶和塑料膜保護好所有不需要上色的區(qū)域。建議油漆要涂抹兩層以獲得最大的耐久性。許多時候木板粉刷需要用到“濕壓”的施工技巧，這是指當在第一道涂層徹底干燥之前涂上第二層。把木板平鋪擺放好再進行粉刷施工能避免出現(xiàn)搭痕，一般情況下，您可以同時對三塊木板進行施工涂抹。當一截木板涂好后，就馬上為其重新涂抹上第二層，之后再涂抹下一截。
Maintaining your deck
保養(yǎng)好你的木板
Reapply a new coat of stain every two to three years. If the deck does not show signs of graying, a quick cleaning is all that is normally required before applying another coat of defense.
每兩到三年重新涂一層新油漆。若木板沒有出現(xiàn)泛灰的跡象，那么在重涂一道防護層之前通常只需要快速清洗一下就可以了。
