Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of three-dimensional patterns in coatings which comprise flake-form effect pigments, to patterned coatings produced thereby and to the use thereof in decoration and security products.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for the production of three-dimensional patterns in coatings, comprising applying a flowable coating composition to a substrate with formation of a first layer, and contacting the first layer in an unsolidified state with a die which has a surface with raised elements in such a way that the raised elements of the die produce recesses in the first layer, removing the die, and optionally coating the first layer containing recesses with a second…
