Tips and recommendations for the restoration of old linoleum
1. If it is necessary to cut off the rubber material (for example, linoleum), then it is practical to lubricate the knife blade with soap. The process will go faster, easier, and the edges will turn out to be more even.
2. Having discovered a swollen fragment of linoleum, do the following not difficult manipulation. Carefully clean the floor under the site. Cover the fragment with a sheet of thick paper and reward with a hot iron. Linoleum straighten and weld to its place. Remember that the method requires special accuracy, t. To. The rubber cannot be overheated too much, otherwise the deformation manifests itself in a new place.
3. You can give an updated look to the old linoleum as follows: wash it with a rag moistened with a turpentine and polish it with dry cloth.
4. Rubber gaskets of cheap tap taps sometimes wear out quickly enough. Especially “caprichen” material to hot water (apparently, the manufacturer does not know that usually not only cold water comes from the taps!). You can get a more durable gasket from the old car tire (it is better to cut off the side part). This material is always designed for serious loads, and therefore will help to forget about the problem for a long time, if not forever!
