Hello everyone, I am Xiao Lei, today I will talk to you about the kitchen countertop, about the kitchen countertop construction technology, about the kitchen countertop construction technology There are many friends who have heard of the large arc process.
What is the large arc process? It is mainly reflected in the position of the back side of the countertop from the water retaining edge of the wall, so this large arc process refers to the arc design of the retaining edge.
So about the kitchen countertop I believe many friends have also understood, this kitchen countertop is currently based on rock slab, quartz stone material, the use of quartz stone accounts for more, then the rock slab material is more brittle because of its color is relatively rich, and its density is relatively large, then it is more brittle, that is to say, more fragile, more crackable, including the edge of the edge of the position, the probability of its problem is relatively large, so for some friends want the effect, do not consider the practical situation, then it is still based on the rock slab material.
Then for some friends who cook less and operate less in the kitchen, you can also choose the rock slab material, that is to say, it is more squeamish than quartz stone, then the quartz countertop is relatively softer, plastic, and more machinable, so for some edges and corners to be more sleek, but this rock slab material is slightly harder, then it will reflect the angular and angular.
The above is whether you choose quartz countertops or rock countertops, so the next construction process about kitchen countertops, there are currently three construction processes, the first is an ordinary quartz countertop, and then add a small return edge, then this is a right-angle splicing.
Then the second is the construction process of the large arc behind me, and the third is the construction process without the water-blocking edge, that is, the countertop is directly pasted on the tile, then the purpose of the edge is to prevent some moisture, some stains, and then flow down the tile to the bottom of the cabinet, so add a block, in order to block some stains, this has the advantage of this edge.
Then its disadvantage is that there are two glue joints, that is to say, there is a glue seam in the place where the vertical edge and the countertop are in contact, and then there is a glue joint between the vertical edge and the tile position, then that is to say, there is one more glue joint, if the sealant is not very good after a long time, there will be this blackening, mildew and yellowing situation, if the block edge is canceled, then we only need to play a glue joint, that is to say, the gap between the countertop and the wall, then this construction method is to look more concise, more atmospheric, that is to say, the effect is slightly better。
If this edge is canceled, then our sealing only relies on this strip, only the disadvantage of this glue, that is, we completely point to a sealant to prevent water stains, and this stain flows below the countertop, so we must clean up in time, if we find that the sealant is cracked, we must repair and repair it in time, that is to say, it will make everyone pay more attention.
Because most of the cabinets are made of wood, that is to say, the cabinets of this material have a certain trembling, including when we are cutting vegetables and chopping ribs, it may have a falling displacement, so the selected sealant, its displacement coefficient is relatively low, then there may be cracking and seepage stains.
The third is this large arc process, because the cost of its construction materials is not high, but its time consumption is longer, from this side can be seen, it is itself in the position of the rear windshield edge has an arc, then this kind of need to be a stack of more than one strip, and then use the machine to polish it out, you can also see, it is also only the position of the tile and the countertop junction has a seam, but also relative to this kind of no edge of the edge, the number of its two rubber strips is the same, but the following it is a polishing with quartz stone, so that a glue seam is reduced, relatively speaking, the practicality will be stronger.
Well, that's all for today's article, I hope it can be helpful to everyone, and we'll see you next time.
