Pentafal paints have been well known for several decades. Such enamels relate to multicomponent materials, and at present the technology of their manufacture has not changed much. But as for the composition, the options are possible here.
Along with the enamels of the “classic” recipe, you can often find their modified samples in which some components are replaced by other, usually cheaper. Accordingly, such an enamel itself costs cheaper. For the consumer, this would be good, but only the qualitative characteristics of such enamels are worse. For example, the well-known PF-115 should not include oilpolymer resin. And some manufacturers allow it to add it, thereby reducing the cost of the product at least two times. To distinguish differently made enamels if desired, you can. The manufacturers of cheap paint were obliged to celebrate this fact on the label of banks with the name of the paint “Economy”. The option “Standard” may also meet. Enamel, in the production of which “classic” components are used, have a “lux” or “elite” prefix on the label. In addition, they are always produced according to GOST 6465-76.
The abbreviation PF means that this group of colors contains alkidal varnish as the main component. These paints are used for both internal and external painting work. If you need to paint the wooden floors indoors, then it is best to use enamel for the floor of the PF-266 for this purpose. Such paint is very resistant to mechanical influences, detergents, to the action of static effects of water. With two -layer staining of the floor, the coating will last up to six years or more. A very significant drawback of this paint is that it is produced in only two color solutions-dark brown and light brown. If necessary, give the flock a different color will have to look for another option. And the PF-266 enamel is not suitable for external paint work, since it is very quickly destroyed from the influence of an aggressive external environment and from the effects of low and high temperatures.
But in this case, the enamel PF-133 is ideal. It rains, snow and strong winds – “nothing” with such paint. The temperature changes and ultraviolet irradiation are also not afraid of her. It holds perfectly on the surfaces of wood and metal. But only if they were previously cleaned and pronounced. If a primer is used for metal structures, then for wooden surfaces, along with the primer, it is quite possible to use Olifa. There is even a special antiseptic olifa, which in addition will protect wooden structures from the invasion of insect-two.
But the universal enamel PF-115 fully has all the best qualities of the two previous. It is quite immune to mechanical influences, “friends” with atmospheric jet. Therefore, it can be used for painting surfaces both indoors and in the open air. It is most advisable to use it if it is necessary to paint several surfaces, some of which are inside and part is from the outside. Then you do not need to purchase separately enamel PF-266 and PF-133. In addition to the fact that it is convenient, in most cases it is also economical.
Other alkyd enamels have in bulk manufacturers of LKM. They have specific properties and, accordingly, highly specialized use.
