How to save the remaining decoration materials

No matter how detailed the decoration plan was made before the renovation, the amount of use required for all the decoration materials was calculated. After the family's renovation, many families still had some leftovers. How to deal with these surplus materials has caused headaches for many families, leaving them with a place to live, throwing them up and being reluctant to do so. If they need them in the future, they will need to purchase them separately. How to rationally use these remaining materials?

After the renovation, many families chose to deal with the remaining materials at a low price to the decoration company, to relatives and friends, or to throw away the method. In practice, however, the vast majority of these materials can be properly preserved in order to handle bumps in the carrying furniture and tinkering in future life.

Is there any color difference with the rest of the finishing materials? This is a problem that many families are most concerned about. Repairing with the remaining material will result in a certain color difference, but using the remaining material for repair can reduce the difference in decoration to a minimum compared to repurchasing similar products. Therefore, it is necessary to properly store some of the remaining decorative materials.

With the space to save these materials at home, you can choose to save tiles, flooring, latex paint, paint, and other materials. When the home wall, tiles, floors appear partial damage, can be repaired in time, save time, effort, and save money. If there is no material to repurchase after the above conditions occur, even if the original product of the same model is purchased, it will take too long to buy the same batch of products and the same color number. If the tiles used in home decoration, different styles, different colors of tiles, flooring, baseboard can be properly saved two or three pieces.

In addition, because there is no color difference, white latex paint can not be retained, while colored latex paint can be properly retained. Because repairing the damaged paint surface with the remaining emulsion paint can reduce the color difference. At the same time, the decoration family should also keep in mind the proportion of colored latex paint to facilitate the re-purchasing of paint.

The preservation of latex paint is relatively simple. Place the latex paint bucket with a lid and put it in a cool place. At this time, the decoration family should pay attention to the shelf life of latex paint. Usually, the water-resistant latex paint is kept for 10-20 days. Late-night latex paints that are not watered should be used within the shelf life. After all, the latex paint can only be kept for six months after opening.

Finally, the method to be taken care of when saving these materials is as follows: To avoid moisture-induced color change of tiles, baseboards, etc., it is best to wrap tiles and skirtings in plastic bags and place them in a relatively dry environment. In particular, the floor is more prone to moisture deformation and color change during storage, so it is best to wrap the floor in a dry place with a newspaper that absorbs water.
