    Abstract: This invention is for a composition of clear or pigmented coating that is temporary and removable. It is especially designed to protect the surface of an automobile from the damaging effects of the environment and also from damage caused by normal daily use. The coating is a composition of 40 to 80% of cellulose acetate butyrate ester, 15 to 60% of an acrylic polymer and 2 to 10% of a sucrose acetate isobutyrate. The remover is a combination of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, dibasic ester, diacetone alcohol, ethyl 3 ethoxypropionate; 2,2,4 trimethyl-1,3 pentanoldiol monoisobutyrate, and white mineral oil.

  • Patent number: 5182533
    Abstract: A magnetically levitated spinning axle display apparatus having a base assembly and an axle assembly. The base assembly includes a base platform member having a plurality of base magnets that are disposed spaced apart along an upper surface thereof. The platform member has an upstanding wall forming an axle support member disposed at one end. The axle assembly includes a plurality of disc shaped magnets disposed spaced apart along the rod and coordinate with individual ones of the base magnets when a first or second rod end portion is engaged in abutting contact with the upstanding axle support member. The polarity configurations of the rod magnets and the base magnets are repulsive to one another to permit free floating levitation of the rod above the base and to generate a longitudinal lateral force sufficient to keep a rod end contacted with the upstanding axle support.
