Everyone has long been accustomed to the fact that the walls in the premises are either painted with wallpaper or painted, however, some people want more originality and therefore prefer molding. Molding should be understood as various decorative elements that have a convex shape, which are designed to apply on walls, arches, ceilings and other surfaces of the room. By and large, molding is understood not some separate element, but a harmonious combination of stucco molding, frames for mirrors and paintings, skirting boards, and so on, which could maximize the transition between individual elements of the interior.
Varieties of molding
Similar overhead parts are made of light materials, such as polystyrene and polystyrene, which are very moisture resistant and universality of use. The cost of such decor elements is low, but they are very unstable to various mechanical damage. Molding can also be made of wood and polymeric materials. Wooden Molding is characterized by a higher strength than a foam analogue, however, they are less resistant to moisture and are more expensive. Polymeric materials with a laminated coating are light and durable, however, if the external film is damaged, such elements quickly lose their qualitative characteristics and attractiveness. The most expensive type of molding is bending material, however, due to the high cost, it is extremely rare.
Application of the material
The main task of the molding is to zoning the surface of the walls for certain areas. Thus, various areas are created on a geometric wall, which in the future are painted in any color, which differs from the color scheme of the entire wall surface. Another task of the molding is to disguise various defects on the surface of the walls, such as convexity, hollows and so on. Using zoning, the surface of the wall is divided into areas that attract the main attention, leaving problem areas in the shade. Also, wooden pads are often installed to protect certain areas of the wall from systematic mechanical exposure (for example, a door handle).
