We should also note that the wooden surface in the production is pre-treated with a special varnish or other impregnations, which serve as reliable protection and ensure durability.
What coverage to choose?
In that case, if you plan to do everything yourself, then you should choose the right coating for lining. The overall view of the interior of a room, as well as the durability of the work done, depend on its quality.For those who are lovers of everything natural and plans to do the interior in ecostyle, you can use ordinary wax or stain. In another case, it is recommended to pay attention to the lacquer, due to which the wooden surface will acquire the original shade and uniform texture.
It is worth mentioning that the varnishes for such works are also different. For example, the so-called aqualak will allow painting both walls and the ceiling. This tool is absolutely non-toxic. It is recommended to apply it with a thin layer and after complete drying to cover the surface with several more thin layers.
Another type of lacquer is alkyd, which is particularly durable. The only disadvantage of this tool is that it has a strong odor and takes a long time to dry. Often this tool is used during outdoor painting and decorating. There is also a varnish based on acrylic. This composition reliably protects the surface from various damage and external influences. As a rule, it is applied in two layers. The first is protective, and the second allows the hue to appear on the surface of the wall paneling.
In that case, if you want to not only give a certain shade of wood to the surface of the wall panel, but choose your favorite color, then you should choose paint. The most popular oil, which allow not only to give the desired color lining, but also form a water-repellent film.
Acrylic paints are good because they retain the original color for a long time, and the paint will not fade over time. This is the best option if the room is on the sunny side. In addition, such a painting means over time does not form any cracks. There are also silicone and acrylic compounds, which are also great for painting lining.
Subtleties of painting
In order to self-paint the wall paneling, it is worth remembering a few simple rules. Let's start with the fact that before painting you need to check the surface of the panels for defects and noticeable damage. If the panels are all right, then you need to make a careful polishing. In that case, if the grinding will be done manually with ordinary sandpaper, then it is recommended to pay attention to the grain of the paper. It should not exceed 290.
Grinding should be done carefully and accurately. To achieve a perfectly smooth surface, it is better to handle the panels in a circular motion. Only the part that will be coated with paint or varnish needs to be processed.
The selected mixture should be applied with a brush or roller. A small amount of the product is applied to the panel with a short stroke with smooth movements, after which it can be shaded, thus avoiding any smudges and making the surface even. Next you need to leave the product until completely dry. In order to fix the color and texture, you can use a special wax or various oils.
If you plan to paint in two or more layers, then the second layer can be applied only after the first is completely dry. Sometimes it can take a day or even a little more time. In addition, it is worth remembering another important rule. If you choose pearl paint or some bright shade, then such a tool should be mixed for a long time and thoroughly so that the color lays evenly.
If you do not want to do the dyeing by hand, you can use a spray gun or a compressor. With this method of staining can only cope who knows how to handle this technique. In this case, it will be possible to achieve a uniform layer, without streaks and drips. Of course, this automatic method is faster, but the paint or varnish will take a bit more than with manual painting.
Recently it has become very fashionable to paint wood panels with a decorative method, getting an unexpected result. In this case, the surface of the wall paneling should be textured, since two colors will be used at once. This is the best solution for those who are not afraid of experiments and are not indifferent to the style of a loft. For this painting you need to choose two colors. The first is necessarily a dark shade, and the second is lighter or brighter.
Initially, the board is painted in a dark color, and after - the second selected shade. An unusual effect is obtained due to the fact that the first layer of paint is easily absorbed into the uneven texture of wood, allowing all irregularities and cracks to appear. It is also quite possible to cover the panels with patina, which also looks very original.
Stylish solutions
In order for the interior with the use of painted lining looked interesting not only in color but also in style decision, it is worth a little imagination and not be afraid of experiments.In that case, if you decide to use panels of different thickness, this will create an unusual wall texture.

Try to choose for the nursery not too bright and not too dark colors. Ideally, it is soft green, blue, light yellow or beige. The original painting on this background will look great. By the way, the finishing stage in the completion of such work should be the coating of lining with colorless varnish or oil. This will help the picture to last for a longer time.
In order to create not just an interesting interior, but also an unusual texture of the walls, you can use not classic wall paneling. Prefer uneven planks and panels with grooves, hollows or even waves. As a rule, they are inherent in eurolining. Thanks to this material you can create an unusual design.
