How to properly paint the radiator
Batteries, as a rule, paint only fromaesthetic considerations, because they are not attractive or stylish in design. That is why the radiators lead to a more or less decent appearance with the help of painting.
We prepare the batteries. You can only paint the radiatorwhen it is absolutely clean. Before applying the paint, it is recommended to degrease and sand. Then the paint will lie on the surface very well. Otherwise, divorce, lumps and other unpleasant defects can form. The old paint is removed with special washing agents, which are sold in construction stores. You can use a building hair dryer, speeding up the cleaning process at times. After that, you need to wipe the battery with a damp cloth, prime it and start dyeing. Grinding the radiator Use of the primer is mandatory, but it is necessary to choose it for metal surfaces.
