Sometimes thinking about how to decorate the facade of a house, decorating a fur coat is the only right decision. First you need to decide how to apply the material, because the appearance of the house will depend on this.
To do this, you should see photos and videos on this topic. Instructions will be given on the rules for completing this work.

What is a fur coat and how does it attract
Before buying materials, you should fully study the advantages and disadvantages of this type of finish and only after that apply the solution:
- The price of the material is quite low. Therefore, almost anyone can afford it;
- All work can be done completely with your own hands and without resorting to outside help. This will significantly reduce the cost of all work.
Skilled professionals are not cheap; - This coating perfectly protects the base plane from external influences. It tolerates temperature extremes and high humidity;
- You can decorate the base plane with various patterns and make it different from other buildings. Moreover, there is the possibility of preparing the solution to give it any color;
- If it speaks of warming, then it is worth noting, although the coat will serve as a heater, but not so good. If the walls of the house are thin and not insulated, then it will not save you.
And when applying it, you will not be able to conduct additional insulation from the outside of the house; - The design issue is also important. If you do facade siding and at the same time fasten the insulation, then applying a fur coat to the basement of the room will not look.
Just the sidet will protrude much more in relation to the plane of the cap; - Ease of work can also be attractive in this matter. Although there are figures to make, then it will take some time;
- Such a coating will protect the plane from moisture and make the material more durable.
The technique of applying a fur coat to the wall
Decorating a fur coat of house facades is not such a difficult task as it might seem at first glance. It must be done according to certain rules and in the right sequence.
It is important to make high-quality material, the durability of the structure will depend on this, so do not miss anything. Correctly choose the method of applying the solution, the surface texture and uniformity of application will depend on this.
Surface preparation
Exterior decoration of fur coat houses begins with the preparation of the base plane, this will determine the quality of bonding surfaces and determine the appearance of the finish.
So:
- First of all, we do an inspection of the plane. After that, take a brush for metal and remove the old coating.
If you had a partial finish with tiles, it is also worth removing; - We must have a rough surface, it will determine the quality of bonding. If the masonry is smooth, then notches must be applied on a plane.
Many people want it easier, just but they make recesses in the seam of the brick. This is done faster and the surface is better;
Caution: Be sure to check the evenness of the wall. This can be done using a plumb line.
If the difference is up to two cm, then you can apply a fur coat. If more, then you need to make a surface plaster.
It is applied with the same solution.We have a topic on our site has a detailed article on the site.
- Now we do surface treatment with an antiseptic. This is especially true for old buildings.
We need to protect the surface against the formation of fungus. This liquid is commercially available and therefore easy to do. To do this, use a brush; - After complete processing, we give the surface to dry completely and apply a primer layer, it will provide a high-quality adhesion of the surfaces. Prefer deep penetration fluid.
For this work, it is worth using a brush or spray; - Masters advise to apply a building mesh to the surface, which will make the connection better and more durable.
Preparing a solution
Fur coat for the exterior decoration of houses is applied with material that must be prepared with high quality. Moisture consumption and the quality of fastening and appearance will depend on this.
Let's make the mixture:
- For this, cement can be used. We make the simplest cement mortar.
To do this, it must be mixed with sand. You can apply both river and mountain material; - We apply the ratio of sand and cement in the following proportions, it depends on the brand of cement. When using the M300 we make a 3: 1 ratio; Using the M400 we make a 4: 1 ratio and applying the M500, we should knead 5: 1;
- We fill the sand in a container for kneading, which is better to pick up with even walls and bottom. It will be most convenient to prepare a solution here.
Add cement in the right amount; - Now mix thoroughly on dry. We see that the components are evenly distributed in the total mass;
- Add water and mix until smooth;
Caution: Cement mortar settles quickly. To prevent this from happening, it is worth adding to the solution the omen of any washing powder. For uniformity of mass, a drill with a nozzle should be used.
It is she who will make the batch the most high quality.
We put a fur coat on the wall
When everything is prepared for us, then we can proceed to facade decoration. This is not difficult to do, but you must do the job competently.
There are three ways to apply the mixture to the surface, here everyone chooses what is more to their taste:
- The first version of the decoration, many call it the grandfather method. Then this work can be done using a conventional broom and stick.
This is done in our time, though it should be said that it is acceptable only for a small area of coverage. This is quite simple to do, just dip the broom in the solution and then tap on the stick and the solution will drop down to cover the surface.
This process takes a lot of time, and the eye must be filled so that the layer is evenly distributed;
- The second option is faster and you can already do the processing of large surfaces. It is performed in two stages.
In the first, a thin layer of plaster is applied to the plane. After that, using a textured roller, one more layer should be applied, which will determine the external texture of the surface.
Only in this way you also need to fill your hand, here the question arises of the uniformity of the layer, which is difficult to do without specific practice.
Attention: Most often, irregularities arise from uneven application of the plaster layer. Therefore, if you notice this, then do not hesitate to remove the excess with a trowel and apply a new final layer.
Application of the compressor
Facade decoration the fur coat in this embodiment turns out to be of better quality. It has a rounded shape and will last much longer.
The rounded shape removes water better and does not undermine the surface. The decoration of the facade of a house coat with a compressor is the fastest and can be applied even during industrial finishing.
Attention: With this method of applying the material, there is one rather significant point, you can adjust the size of the drop.The more liquid the solution, the smaller the drop.
And vice versa. And the layer can be applied most qualitatively and evenly.
- For this option, you need a compressor, but you are not in a hurry to buy, you can just rent it from builders. In any case, renting will be much cheaper than buying a new one;
- If you want to work only with your tool, there is still another option, buying a special machine to do this job. Although it will be almost a manual solution application, it’s exactly as effective as a compressor.
In common people, this unit is called the "barrel organ", it is in appearance similar.
Tips from the wizards to do the job
There are details that you should know before starting work. They will help to do all the work more quickly and efficiently.
So:
- Surface finishing should be performed at a plus temperature of 5 * -25 *. It will be good if it is cloudy, of course, the rain can only interfere, but it is worth avoiding direct sunlight;
- Application of the material is done in three layers, which should be applied without waiting for the surface to completely dry, you just need to let it dry slightly;
- You should not save on a primer, you can even apply twice;
- The solution can be painted in any color, for this dyes are used, which are available on the market. It is best to use powders with mineral dyes, these are: coal powder, crushed white marble, finely ground cobalt glass, white asbestos, and others;
- The solution should be invariably reminiscent of sour cream, rare enough, but not slip on the plane;
- To make the coating more granular, a mesh with a larger mesh should be used.
Now you know how to exteriorize a fur coat. It is not that difficult.
The most important thing is not in a hurry and do everything carefully. Choose the right material and color, then it's up to you.
Exterior decoration of the house using plaster coat type is probably the easiest option, both in terms of the complexity of this work and financial costs. The method is simple, but unfortunately, in my opinion, it is short-lived, since in order for this type of plaster to serve for a long time, you need to observe a lot of temperature nuances. Here, take at least one of the moments of applying the solution, the weather should be 100% not sunny and preferably even slightly cool, since the solution should slowly dry and set for a long time. With this condition, the biggest problem. Only the month of April and from the end of September can such work be done. For the rest, it all depends on the skills and quality of the solution.
Thank you, Gleb !!! Just a few words about the solution and this whole long article with a huge set of words would not be needed by anyone !!!!!
