Heat resistant paint (high temperature): characteristics, instructions for use

There are special paint and varnish materials that can be used for design purposes on surfaces that require significant temperature increases. In everyday life, high-temperature paint is used in many areas: decoration of surfaces of fireplaces, stoves, boilers and other areas, the surfaces of which require special treatment. Heat resistant paint is manufactured using special technologies that take into account the operational characteristics of this material.

What is a heat-resistant paint material

Refractory paint has a special property. The paint and varnish material, which processes the surfaces of various devices and devices, resists high temperatures. The main task of the material, the purpose of which is aimed at the design of surfaces with elevated temperatures, is protection from the effects of moisture and its components to prevent the corrosive destruction of metal surfaces. Also, the paint is used for the design of living quarters.

Heat resistant paint is used to coat metal, ceramic and other surfaces that undergo thermal stress during operation. Special properties of the material - the possibility of processing the surface of various heating appliances: ovens, boilers, fireplaces, chimney systems.

Features of coatings

Some of the materials have special features, for example, heat-resistant paint for braziers can withstand direct loads of fire on the surface, but there is no damage during operation of the device. All these features are possible due to the use of special technological processes that are used in manufacturing. Such paint does not burn out and does not break the structure of the coating even with direct exposure to the material, while the color gamut and the layer remain unchanged.

Paint choice

The most popular material in this category is paint for furnaces. It must meet all technical requirements, as it is used for processing heating appliances. It is important that the paint does not burn out, withstand high temperature.

The variety of paint and varnish materials confounds, because not all people have sufficient knowledge in this field, and it is extremely difficult to choose the necessary products from a huge assortment.

The question of how to paint a stove in a dacha or in a country house, many owners are confused. So what you need to know when choosing a paint:

• What material parameters are most suitable for operation;
• Who from manufacturers took care of the quality of the products;
• Price policy (at what price and where to buy the goods);
• How to properly surface.

Heat resistant paint must meet all the requirements and specifications. If the instructions issued by the manufacturer do not specify the exact parameters during operation, you can safely delete such a product from the shopping list. Heat-resistant paint should at least withstand loads of +650 degrees, then this material can be used to treat surfaces that undergo thermal overload during operation. The paint for the ovens should neither crack, nor burn out on the surface during use. Also, when the oven is heated, no harmful toxic compounds should be released, as this can damage the health of people.

What is the purpose of applying heat-resistant coatings

First and foremost, refractory paint is used to protect the main material of the product from corrosive damage, which in the process of being subjected to structures. The main aggressive environments are temperature differences and the effects of water and steam on work areas. Specific requirements for heat-resistant paints, which require the use of outdoor appliances, include mangals and open ovens.

Preparatory work

The manufacturer has ensured that its products are operated at the highest quality. For this purpose, in order to correctly use the paint and varnish material with heat-resistant features, a special instruction manual is included in each package. The main requirement from the manufacturer is the correct preparation of surfaces that will be treated with paint and varnish.

The surface is cleaned of dirt and foreign objects. Particular importance is the material on which the high-temperature paint will be applied. Metal, wood and ceramic surfaces react differently to absorption, this property should be taken into account.

Form of output

The manufacturer took care not only of the various technical properties of the products, but also diversified the ways in which the paint is heat-resistant applied to the surface. To reduce the consumption of paint and varnish, special aerosol cans with heat-resistant paint are used. This method facilitates the application of paint in hard-to-reach places. This same feature of the form of release does not require special places for the storage of paints from customers to avoid toxic poisoning from the smell of products.

Another form of release of heat-resistant paint is the customary for all metal containers of different masses. Some of the types of paints must be mixed thoroughly before use with shaking. In very rare cases the manufacturer uses glass containers for his products, as a rule, these are varnishes endowed with special heat-resistant capabilities that are applied to the surface of designer products. They decorate fireplaces, furnaces from refractory ceramics, continuation of ovens and chimneys in the internal parts of living quarters.

Technology of applying heat-resistant material to the surface

The most practical and economical method of using a paint and varnish material with special thermal features of operation is spraying the paint onto the desired surface areas. This technology, when properly applied, not only allows the material to be applied evenly to the surface, but also economically used up the paint. The sprayer makes it possible to apply a primary layer of heat-resistant paint on the entire surface in such a way that after partial drying the material can be re-fixed to the required level.

Heat resistant paint can be applied in the usual way, with the help of a brush, but this process is more durable and economically unprofitable. But at the same time, the purchased products have a significant difference in price. For painting small areas of the surface, where saving does not play a significant role, staining in the usual way is the most acceptable option.

Work safety

It is important to remember that special materials are added to the material used for coloring the surfaces for quick drying. Not always these materials are harmless when drying for health - some of them have a strong toxic odor. In order to avoid trouble, during the painting work, do not allow paint to hit the surface of the skin and use special protective equipment.

After the work is finished, leave the room until the material dries completely and, in the end, carefully ventilate it.
