When purchasing solid wood doors, we need to focus on the process effect of its paint. For solid wood doors, the quality of the paint and the effect of construction will affect its future service life, so when we buy It is necessary to draw attention, and I will share with you how to distinguish the quality of the paint craftsmanship of solid wood doors.
Paint is the later process of solid wood door processing, and its pros and cons directly affect the final use effect. At the same time, the cost of painting is also one of the largest parts of the cost of wooden doors. The types of paint are roughly divided into phenolic paint, alkyd paint, polyurethane paint, nitrocellulose paint, polyester paint and PU paint. Among them, phenolic paint and alkyd paint are basically eliminated in the decoration due to the poor texture and adhesion of the paint film, and a large number of them are nitrocellulose paint, polyester paint and PU paint used on high-end furniture. Nitro-lacquer is widely used due to its simple construction and suitable for manual operation, but its paint film is thin, the hand feels not good, and the effect is not ideal.
Due to cost processing methods and equipment issues, 90% of solid wood doors on the market currently use polyester paint, while a few manufacturers use PU paint. Generally speaking, polyester paint and PU paint have to go through six processes such as color finding, three bottoms and two sides. Some brands add curing and waxing processes.
Therefore, when choosing a solid wood door, paint is one of the factors that must be considered. It directly affects the texture, feel, moisture resistance, environmental protection, durability, yellowing resistance and other issues. In addition to paint, we can distinguish the quality of the solid wood door by looking at the thickness of the door, and we can also tap on the door with our hands. If the sound is even and dull, the quality of the door is better. In addition, the pattern on the surface of the pure solid wood door is very irregular, and if you look at it at a glance, the pattern on the surface of the door is smooth and neat, which is often not a real solid wood door.
