Methods of creating decorative concrete wall surfaces, the methods including dividing an area of a wall surface into multiple sections; marking a boundary between each pair of adjacent sections; selecting a desired width for the border area between adjacent sections; applying a cement-based slurry to each section of the wall surface using a roller brush, so each section receives at least two coats of the slurry, and each border area receives at least four coats of the slurry; smoothing the surface of the applied slurry in each section; and permitting the applied slurry to dry to form the decorative concrete wall surface.

An aerosol actuator has a main body member, a nozzle member defining an outlet opening, and a selector member. The outlet opening defines a fluid flow direction. The selector member is moved to obtain different fluid spray patterns. The selector member is distal to the nozzle member and the fluid flow direction.

A building panel structure is disclosed, in which building panels are used to form a structure. Roof panels and roof panel tiles are disclosed, which can be used to form the roof of the structure. The roof panels and the building panels include a core and a coating covering a portion of the core. In some embodiments the core consists of a frame and at least one insulating structural block. The insulating structural blocks can be encapsulated polystyrene (EPS) foam blocks. In some embodiments the coating includes ceramic material. In some embodiments the coating includes a first layer and a second layer. In some embodiments the coating is used to retrofit existing wall structures. The roof panel and the roof tile can be shaped, formed, and colored to look like traditional roof tiles such as shake roof tiles or Spanish roof tiles.

The present invention relates to a method for applying a wallpaper material onto a surface comprising the steps of providing a liquid suspension comprising cellulosic fibers wherein at least part of said cellulosic fibers comprises microfibrillated cellulose and wherein said liquid suspension has a dry content of at least 10% by weight, applying at least one layer of said liquid suspension onto the surface, drying said liquid suspension layer after it has been applied onto the surface, and thereby forming a dry fiber web layer, wherein said fiber web layer forms said wallpaper material.

A one-component type polyurethane resin composition for preventing detachment of concrete pieces and tiles containing an isocyanate group-containing urethane prepolymer (A) and a thixotropy-imparting agent (B), and a method for forming a reinforcing layer on a surface of a concrete structure or tiled wall containing a resin coated film composed thereof, in order to provide a one-component type polyurethane resin composition for preventing detachment of concrete pieces and tiles, which has improved workability by being able to be applied with a trowel or brush, forms a transparent resin coated film after reactive curing that has improved weather resistance without applying a top coat, facilitates diagnosis of deterioration of concrete by being carried out visually during maintenance of concrete structures, is able to maintain the existing appearance of the tiled exteriors of buildings and other structures and eliminates dispersion to surrounding areas during application.

The present disclosure relates generally to wallboards, for example, suitable for use in constructing internal walls. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a wallboard and a method that provides simplified high-quality surface finishing. The wallboard includes a wall panel having a front surface and a rear surface. A sandable coating is disposed on the front surface of the wall panel. The method includes positioning wallboards adjacent to one another, applying sandable joint compound over joint formed between the wallboards, and sanding the joint compound and the sandable coating of the wallboards.

An insulated masonry wall system comprised of special blocks of 24″×16″×8″ dimension filled with reclaimed rubber crumbs resulting in high R values to resist transmission of heat and cold. Insulation is blown and vibrated into the special concrete blocks as walls are developed. Construction of wall will be similar to standard masonry blocks. Facings attached to the blocks can be vinyl and wood siding, brick, stucco, textured acrylic finish, fiber-cement siding hardboard, photovoltaic siding, and wood shakes.
