Abstract: In order to enable a decorative panel of a table, such as that used in fast food restaurants bars etc., to be readily interchanged in accordance with changes in season or game popularity etc., one of the moldings provided about the edge of the table is arranged to be disconnectable from the remainder of the table to expose a side edge of the decorative panel. In some embodiments, the panel is slidably received in grooves which are formed in moldings while in other embodiments the panel is adhered to the surface of the table top using dual-sided tape. When the panel is retained by way of grooves, the removal of the disconnectable molding permits the panel to be slid out and replaced.

Abstract: A method of making a laminate and articles of furniture made from the laminate are disclosed wherein a transparent acrylic or polycarbonate sheet is coated with a clear urethane coating composition to at least a portion of one surface of the acrylic or polycarbonate composition sheet. The coated sheet is then treated with a water-based or latex color coating composition over the urethane coating. A urethane primer-surfacer coating composition is then applied over that portion of the sheet to which the color coating has been applied. The surface of the sheet is then adhesively bonded to a backing member, in which the uncoated surface of the acrylic sheet layer forms the outer layer of the laminated article. Preferably, the urethane coating composition is a low VOC urethane coating composition containing less than 4.0 pounds of volatile organic compounds per gallon of urethane coating composition.
