Why are most toilets white?
White is the universal color for ceramic sanitary ware worldwide. White gives a clean and clean feeling. White glaze is cheaper in cost than colored glaze (colored glaze is more expensive).
Is the whiter the toilet, the better?
In fact, this is a consumer misconception that the quality of toilet glaze is not measured by color.
The national standard sets a series of requirements for the appearance quality of toilets. The quality of toilet glaze is evaluated by checking for defects such as cracking, brown eyes, cracking, blisters, spots, spots, ripples, bumps, shrinkage, and color differences. Whether it is white or beige glaze, the fewer these defects, the better the quality of the glaze.
So, when purchasing a toilet, it’s not just about looking at the white color, but more importantly, the smoothness. When two toilets are placed together, the whiter one may be worse, while the brighter one is a high-quality product.
Because the toilet with high Population index adopts high-quality glaze materials and very good glazing technology, it has good reflection and uniformity to the light, so that the visual effect is good and the product appears to be of high grade. Good quality glaze should be smooth and smooth, while poor quality glaze should be dull and have a rough surface.
How to choose the best toilet to buy?
1. The heavier the toilet, the better, the whiter the unglazed part at the bottom, the better
A regular toilet weighs around 50 pounds, while a good toilet weighs around 100 pounds.
The main raw materials for toilet embryo are kaolin (black mud) and powdered quartz (white mud), which are mixed in a certain scientific proportion. An increase in the mixing ratio of white mud within a reasonable range will make the embryo more compact and firm, while white mud is heavy and white, so its weight will increase. It can be said that areas without glaze are very white.
2. Dry glaze construction process, choose a toilet with self-cleaning glaze
It’s best to touch the glaze when choosing a toilet.
The most intuitive difference between a few hundred yuan toilet and a few thousand yuan toilet is reflected in the glazed surface. A well glazed toilet is sturdy, durable, and easy to clean; Poor glaze makes it difficult for dirt to wash down, which can easily cause blockage problems.
Why choose dry glaze?
Because the glaze layer produced by firing dry glaze is twice as thick as wet glaze!
The technique of applying wet glaze is to use a certain proportion of diluted glaze and spray it all around the toilet in one go. The technique of applying dry glaze is to use dry glaze and workers repeatedly spray the same toilet several times, spraying several layers on each toilet.
As for self-cleaning glaze, it is added after the extrusion glaze construction is completed.
The so-called self-cleaning glaze has a self-cleaning function like lotus leaves. When dew drops leave behind from the lotus leaves, there is no trace left in the area they pass through. I believe everyone should understand.
The selection of self-cleaning glaze can be carefully observed on the inner wall of the toilet pipe. If you have a marker with you, write it down a few times to see if it can be wiped off.
3. Multiple advantages of a connected toilet
The integrated toilet features a stylish and elegant appearance, giving the impression of elegance and elegance. Split toilets are relatively easy to trap dirt and occupy a large area. It is recommended to choose a connected toilet if funding allows.
4. Don’t think about a few hundred yuan toilet
The final suggestion for everyone is not to buy something too cheap, don’t consider something worth a few hundred yuan, the quality is really awkward, especially the 599 priced online.
Why do I say not to consider toilets for less than a thousand yuan
See how counterfeit toilets can save cost.
1. Repair porcelain
This type of merchant is the most detestable, selling specially processed defective products and refurbished second-hand toilets as first-class products
Toilet repair refers to the burning of toilets with quality issues in the kiln. The manufacturer will sell to some small workshops for polishing and repairing the glaze. From the picture, you can see that the toilet is the same as a genuine one. The repaired area may not be visible to outsiders, but after a period of use, the repaired area will appear dark yellow and have a rough surface! In severe cases, it may break and be damaged, seriously affecting its use and aesthetics.
2. Pipeline not glazed
A good toilet must also have pipes glazed. Consumers can ask the shop owner if the drain outlet is glazed, and even reach into the drain outlet to feel if there is glaze on the return water bay. The main culprit of hanging dirt is poor glaze. Customers can touch it with their hands, and qualified glaze must have a delicate touch. Consumers can be more picky and touch the corners of the glazed surface (internal and external corners). If the glazed surface is used very thin, it will be uneven at the corners, expose the bottom, and feel very rough.
