Umbuzo: Sinethanga lasekwindla njengehombiso etafileni yethu yokutyela ene-figured maple, egqunywe yioyile ye-linseed kuphela, esiyisebenzisa rhoqo. Ithanga lavuza, lashiya ibala. Ngaba ikho indlela yokususa oku?
Impendulo: Zininzi iindlela zokususa amabala amnyama emthini, kodwa kusenokufuneka uzame izisombululo ezininzi ezinokwenzeka.
Ngokwesiqhelo, amabala amnyama emthini abangelwa kukufuma okudibana neetannins, ezibizwa njalo ngenxa yamanqanaba aphezulu etannins kwixolo lom-oki kunye nomthi wom-oki, ebezisetyenziswa ukujika ulusu kangangeenkulungwane zeminyaka. Iitannins zikwafumaneka kwiziqhamo ezininzi, imifuno kunye nezinye izinto zezityalo. Yi-antioxidant, kwaye uphando oluninzi lwangoku lugxile kwimiphumo yempilo yokutya ukutya okutyebileyo kwitannins.
Iitannins ziyanyibilika emanzini. Xa umthi umanzisiwe aze amanzi aphele, iitannins ziyathwalwa ziye phezulu, zishiye iitannins ezixineneyo. Oku kwenzeka rhoqo kwimithi etyebileyo njenge-oki, i-walnut, i-cherry kunye ne-mahogany. Iimaple zincinci kwiitannins, kodwa kunokwenzeka ukuba iitannins ze-pumpkin sap xa zidibene neetannins ze-maple zenza ibala.
Amabala amnyama emthini nawo anokubangelwa kukungunda, okwenzeka xa umthi umanzi kwaye kukho umthombo wokutya wefungus, esiwubiza ngokuba yi-mildew okanye i-mildew. I-Bottle gourd sap, njengayo nayiphi na into yendalo, ngokuqinisekileyo ingasetyenziswa njengomthombo wokutya.
I-oxalic acid isusa amabala e-tannin, kwaye i-chlorine bleach isusa amabala okubola. I-oxalic acid ifakiwe kwiBar Keepers Friend Cleaner ($2.99 ​​​​kwi-Ace Hardware), kodwa ubungakanani be-oxalic acid kwi-can bungaphantsi kwe-10 pesenti, ngokutsho kwe-MSDS yomenzi. I-Bar Keepers Friend Gentle Cleanser ikwanayo ne-oxalic acid, kodwa ikwizinga eliphantsi. Ukuba ufuna uhlobo olungaxutywanga, khangela iimveliso ezifana neSavogran Wood Bleach ($12.99 kwi-can ye-12-ounce kwi-Ace) kwindawo yokupenda.
Nangona kunjalo, i-oxalic acid kunye ne-bleach kufuneka zinxibelelane nemicu yomthi ukuze zisebenze. Ke ngoko, iingcali zokulungisa ifenitshala ziqale zisuse uqweqwe lomphezulu zisebenzisa izinyibilikisi okanye i-sanding. Nangona kunjalo, kuyacaca ukuba ibala liye langena kwi-topcoat, ngoko ungatsiba uye kwiingcebiso ze-oxalic acid ezingezantsi ukuze ubone ukuba i-oxalic acid yanele na ukungena ukuze kuncitshiswe ibala ngaphandle kokususwa. Iposi enye yewebhu endiyifumeneyo ibonisa imifanekiso yenyathelo ngenyathelo yendlela yokususa amabala amnyama emthini ngaphandle kokususa: Ukusebenzisa intlama ye-Bar Keepers Friend Cleaner yeenxalenye ezi-2 kunye nenxalenye enye yamanzi, xuba imizuzu embalwa, emva koko sebenzisa isiqingatha sesepha kunye nesiqingatha samanzi. Kwisicelo sesibini, umbhali wale posi usebenzise uboya bentsimbi obuyi-0000 obuhle kakhulu, kodwa bekuya kuba ngcono ukusebenzisa iphedi yokwenziwa. Uboya bentsimbi bunokushiya ii-splenters kwiimbobo zomthi, kwaye ii-tannins zinokusabela kwisinyithi, ziguqule umthi okufutshane ube mnyama.
Ukuba uyakwazi ukumelana nebala kwaye wonwabile ngesiphumo, kulungile oko! Kodwa, kusenokwenzeka ukuba awuyi kufumana mbala ulinganayo. Yiyo loo nto iingcali zicebisa ukususa i-topcoat kunye nokunyanga ibala ngaphambi kokupeyinta.
Kwizinto zakudala, izinyibilikisi mhlawumbi zezona zisusa zilungileyo kuba ukukhusela i-patina kubalulekile. UCarol Fiedler Kawaguchi, opholisha izinto zakudala kunye nefenitshala ngenkampani yakhe i-C-Saw eBainbridge Island, eWash., ucebisa ukusebenzisa isisombululo esinotywala obungenasici kunye nesincinci se-lacquer. Ukuze uzikhusele kumsi, sebenza ngaphandle nanini na xa kunokwenzeka okanye unxibe i-half-mask respirator ene-organic vapor cartridge. Nxiba iiglavu kunye neeglasi ezimelana neekhemikhali. Ezi zinyibilikisi ziyaphela ngokukhawuleza, ngoko sebenza ngamanani amancinci ngokwaneleyo ukukrwela okanye ukusula umphezulu onamathelayo ngaphambi kokuba uqine.
Okanye, uKawaguchi uthi, ungasebenzisa iCitristrip Safer Paint kunye neVarnish Remover Gel ($15.98 ngekota kwiThe Home Depot). Le stripper ayinavumba libi, ihlala imanzi kwaye isebenza iiyure ezininzi, kwaye inelebheli ekhuselekileyo yokusetyenziswa ngaphakathi. Nangona kunjalo, njengoko ushicilelo oluncinci kwilebheli lubonisa, qinisekisa ukuba umoya ungena kakuhle kwaye unxibe iiglavu kunye neeglasi ezimelana neekhemikhali.
Ukuba ufuna ukuphepha ukususwa kweekhemikhali, ukugquma ngesanti lolunye ukhetho olunokuba nomtsalane ngakumbi kwiiprojekthi ezingabandakanyi izinto zakudala kwaye ezinemiphezulu ethe tyaba engenazo izinto ezintsonkothileyo ezenza kube nzima ukugquma ngesanti. Sebenzisa i-orbital sander engacwangciswanga, efana ne-DeWalt Corded 5-Inch Sander eneVelcro Attachment ($69.99 kwi-Ace). Thenga ipakethi yesanti ephakathi ($11.99 kwiipads ezili-15 ze-Diablo brand sanding) kunye namaphepha ambalwa e-fine-grit sandpaper (220 grit). Ukuba kunokwenzeka, susa itafile ngaphandle okanye uye egaraji ukuze uphephe iitships zomthi ezileleyo. Qala ngephepha eliphakathi. Ioyile yeflaxseed isabela ngeoksijini emoyeni ukuze yenze i-coating efana neplastiki. Le mpendulo yenzeka ngokukhawuleza ekuqaleni ize inciphe kwiminyaka eliqela. Ngokuxhomekeke ekubeni i-coating iqine kangakanani, inokugquma ngesanti ngokulula. Ngaphandle koko, ii-oyile ezincinci zinokwakheka kwi-sandpaper, zinciphise ukusebenza kwayo. Jonga iphepha lesanti rhoqo kwaye ulitshintshe ukuba kuyimfuneko.
Wakuba ushiyeke umthi ongenanto, ungawususa loo mthi. Zama i-oxalic acid kuqala. Ileyibhile yeSavogran ithi xuba yonke isitya se-12-ounce kunye ne-1 gallon yamanzi ashushu, kodwa ungayinciphisa uze udibanise ikota yomxholo kunye ne-1 quart yamanzi ashushu. Sebenzisa ibrashi ukufaka isisombululo kwitafile yonke, kungekhona nje ibala. Linda ude umthi ube mhlophe ngendlela othanda ngayo. Emva koko sula ngelaphu elicocekileyo nelimanzi amaxesha amaninzi ukuze uhlambe umphezulu. Ingcali yokucoca umgubo uJeff Jewitt ithi kwincwadi yakhe ethi Furniture Restoration Made Easy ukuba izicelo ezininzi ezineeyure ezininzi zokomisa zinokufuneka ukuze kususwe ibala.
Ukuba i-oxalic acid ayisusi ibala, zama ukufaka i-chlorine bleach kwibala uze ulishiye ubusuku bonke. Ukuba umbala ukhanyisile kancinci kodwa akwanelanga, phinda le nkqubo izihlandlo ezininzi, kodwa mhlawumbi imini yonke ukuze ukwazi ukujonga rhoqo kwaye ugqibezele unyango ngaphambi kokuba umthi utshintshe umbala kakhulu. Okokugqibela, susa ibala uze ulicoce nge-1 part yeviniga emhlophe kunye ne-2 part yamanzi.
Ukuba ibala liyaqhubeka, uneendlela ezintathu onokukhetha kuzo: Fowunela umntu olungisayo oqeqeshiweyo; i-bleach enamandla iyafumaneka kodwa kunzima ukuyifumana. Ungayicoca ide ibala liphele okanye ubuncinane ukhanyise ngokwaneleyo ukuze ingakukhathazi. Okanye ceba ukusebenzisa eyona nto iphambili njengesixhobo esiqhelekileyo etafileni yokutyela.
Ukuba usebenzise i-oxalic acid okanye i-bleach, xa umthi womile, kuya kufuneka ucocwe kancinci ngesanti encinci ukuze kususwe nayiphi na imicu ephakanyiswe ngamanzi. Ukuba awudingi sander ukuze ukhuphe kwaye awunayo sander, ungayenza ngesandla usebenzisa iphepha lesandpaper elinama-220 grit. Susa naluphi na uthuli lwesand uze uchukumise umphezulu nge-linseed oil okanye enye into.
