The glossy ceiling coating is nothing but a suspended system from a polyvinyl chloride film. The appearance and service life of the structure depends on the quality of the latter. The best option is a dense elastic material, which can also have any desirable color. Photo printing is possible as finishes. Before installing the cloth, special attachments are cut down and applied along the edges.
On the walls are mounted profiles-baguettes in which they snap fasteners from the edges of the canvas. In order for this to be done, the material is warmed up and is stretched in this state. After cooling, it is slightly compressed and stretched, forming perfectly smooth coating. Thus, it is possible to close the non-primable draft base and all communications laid on it.
In the process of installation, the film is refilled in fastening

Possible difficulties of care are explained by the design features. We will analyze them in detail.
- The cloth is stretched on the frame, so it can be removed from the mounts. If baguettes are fragile or masters made mistakes when installing, there is a possibility that the film will be eliminated from the latch. This is the probability when cleaning it with a vacuum cleaner, especially if it works at maximum power.
- Film is not sufficiently resistant to mechanical damage. Even dense and rather durable material can be accidentally damaged, thin low-quality, especially. For this reason, it is not necessary to overtake to the tool or press with a rag with a hand. The appearance of elongated areas is possible. All rings, bracelets, etc. It is better to remove to accidentally do not cut through the film.
- The brilliant surface is afraid of abrasives. Like any other smooth coating, the glossy cloth can be scratched. As a result, noticeable stripes and scuffs appear, remove which is impossible.
- The appearance of divorces. Gloss, like glass or mirrors, is very sensitive to the cleaning drug. Some of them, such as soap, leave traces on it. You can get rid of them, only completely removing the tool, and this is not so simple. Therefore, the composition for cleaning should be chosen very carefully.
Other, purely technical difficulties are possible. For example, if the ceiling is high, it is difficult to reach it. In this case, you can take a mop, but optimally use the stepladder. Getting on it, you can easily and safely wash any hard-to-reach plot, while mop can accidentally damage the cloth.
