摘要:
Compositions, methods, apparatuses, kits, and combinations are described for permanently or temporarily re-designing, decorating, and/or re-coloring a surface. The compositions useful in the present disclosure include a décor product that is formulated to be applied and affixed to a surface. If desired, the décor product may be substantially removed from the surface before being affixed thereto. If a user desires to remove the décor product, the décor product is formulated to be removed by a number of methods including, for example, vacuuming, wet extraction, chemical application, and the like. If the user desires to affix the décor product to the surface in a permanent or semi-permanent manner, the décor product may be affixed to the surface by applying energy thereto in the form of, for example, heat, pressure, emitted waves, an emitted electrical field, a magnetic field, and/or a chemical. The décor product may also be utilized in the form of a kit or in conjunction with a design device, such as a stencil, to control the application of the décor product to create, for example, a pattern on the surface.

摘要:
A light conducting substrate, method for forming a light conducting substrate “light canvas”, and kit for creating a light conductive substrate. The light canvas includes: a transparent or translucent (or opaque) underlying substrate having a surface; and a surface treatment that includes a mixture of frit with transparent or translucent filler.

A kit and a process for using it to impart wood grain appearances are provided. According to the method, an opaque, pigmented, water-based paint/stain emulsion is applied to a wood-grain textured substrate and dried. Then, a pigmented, water-based graining coat water-based graining coat (most preferably a self-crosslinked urethane/acrylic) is applied sparingly, preferably by spraying from a small bottle, in an amount sufficient to color at least a majority of texture recesses in the substrate and drying. According to the kit aspect of the invention, the kit will comprise: an opaque, pigmented, water-based paint/stain emulsion; a pigmented, water-based graining coat emulsion, packaged in a spray bottle. Optionally, the kit can include a surface cleaner, a scraper, brush and/or cloth.
摘要:
A method of coloring cut gemstones introduces metals or metal oxides into a surface layer by means of heat treatment. During the heat treatment the gemstones are laid on a solid plate and the metals or metal oxides form a substantial constituent of the plate. The surface of the gemstone is protected from direct content with the metals and metal oxides in the plate by a layer containing non-coloring oxides.

摘要:
Surface covering components that include a topcoat layer with different gloss levels in various regions on the top coat layer, and methods of manufacturing such surface covering components, are disclosed. The surface covering components include a coating layer that includes regions that have a relatively higher gloss, and regions with a relatively lower gloss. The differential gloss is provided by coating a substrate with a UV-curable coating composition, subjecting a first region of the surface coating to polymerization under a first set of conditions, and subjecting a second region of the surface coating to polymerization under a second set of conditions. The UV-curable coating compositions include UV-curable components and one or more flatting agents. The different polymerization conditions involve applying various photoinitiators, thermal initiators and/or cure altering agents to some regions of the coated substrate, and not applying these components to other regions of the substrate. The components are applied in the form of a pattern. Regions in contact with these components are cured at different rates in one step or in different steps, for example, sequential UV and EB irradiation or UV irradiation at different wavelengths and/or exposure times. The resulting surface coverings and surface covering substrates have differential gloss in register with the printed and/or sprayed patterns.
摘要:
An article made from polyvinyl chloride/wood composite having a natural wood grain finish and a method for creating the article. The natural wood grain finish is created on the article by applying multiple paint transfers onto the polyvinyl chloride/wood composite. The paint is transferred by a series of printing rollers having a wood grain pattern. Optionally, the polyvinyl chloride/wood composite can be painted with a base-coat of a hydrocarbon-based paint before applying the multiple paint transfers. This method is especially suited for manufacturing window blind slats.

Disclosed are aqueous compositions and methods to produce durable and vitreous colored interference films of nickel zinc oxide electroplating, including white zinc metallic colored electrodepositions for the zinc embodiment; brass, bronze, burgundy, purple, blue, green and black electroplatings covering both high and low bath concentration embodiments. The films are useful for decorative and functional purposes. The distinguishing features of the coating are its vivid colorfulness, its specular reflection and the perception of binocular depth by the observer caused by translucence of the deposited film. The baths can coat a variety of metal substrates, including brass, copper and most ferrous metals. The alkaline plating bath embodiment of this invention permits the coating to be directly electroplated over zinc, as well as aluminum.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for creating a faux finish on a paintable surface. The apparatus includes a polyvinyl alcohol block having first and second ends, and a longitudinal body extending between the first and second ends. The body also includes at least one planar painting surface and a beveled surface located adjacent the first end of the body. The method includes the steps of applying paint to a work surface, contacting a polyvinyl alcohol painting apparatus against the work surface, manipulating the paint on the work surface with the polyvinyl alcohol block, and creating a decorative painting effect.
