Method of coating the surface of an object with a paint design

A method of using compositions and kits for preparing a marbleized coating on the surface of a sheet or object involves floating multiple colour coating materials on the surface of water and dipping the sheet or object directly into this two phase liquid system. The colour coating forms its own design on the water surface and does not need to be moved around or it can be changed. The resulting sheet or object is coated with a marbleized coating which is flexible and permanent. The water is conditioned with cream of tartar or a similar non-toxic substance and tested prior to carrying out the coating method.

A construction method of artificial stone with durability

PURPOSE: A method for manufacturing an artificial arm with the durability is provided to prevent the generation of abrasion using rebar buried with a pre-set thickness. CONSTITUTION: Rebar(4) with pre-set intervals is combined using combining wires(6). The rebar is integrated with an inner iron mesh and an outer iron mesh using combining rings(13). A spacer(10) is installed at the rebar. A nylon net(11) is installed at the outside of the inner iron mesh and at the end part of the spacer. The spray coating process of a primary molding material(7) between the rebar, the iron mesh, and the nylon net is implemented in order to form an artificial arm structure.
