  • Patent number: 5698264
    Abstract: Novel compositions and methods are provided for forming masks used in air brash painting. The masking compositions used in this invention are liquids as applied and are hardenable into a friable paint masking layer. The preferred compositions of this invention are comprised of a hydratable binder, such as plaster of Paris, an inert filler, such as calcium carbonate, and water. The amount of the filler is selected relative to the amount of the binder to substantially weaken and make friable the resulting hardened layer. In the method of this invention the composition is applied to the area of a substrate to be masked. The applied layer if desired is shaped with a tool to provide details in the resulting mask. The layer is then hardened to form a brittle friable masking layer directly adhered to surface of the substrate. The substrate is then airbrush painted. The mask is removed by fracturing the mask and removing the resulting particles.

  • Patent number: 5481758
    Abstract: A garment which carries a message in combination with a three-dimensional structure is disclosed. The garment consists of an article of clothing having a reproduction of paper money secured to tile surface of the article of clothing at a position where it appears to be extending from the article of clothing such as from a pocket. The message is applied in close proximity to the paper money reproduction. In use a viewer attention is drawn to the paper money reproduction and the viewer will focus on both the paper money reproduction and the adjacent message. The viewer is then much more likely to read tile message that if only the message is applied to the article of clothing.

  • Patent number: 5025043
    Abstract: A method is provided for the preparation of stable aqueous dispersions of non-solvated, un-neutralized, low amine, low acid number polymerized fatty acid polyamide resins. In the preferred method of this invention, a polymerized fatty acid polyamide resin which has been prepared so as to have a low acid and low amine number is liquified by heating the polyamide resin to a temperature where it is at or above its melting point. The liquified polymerized fatty acid polyamide resin is then blended with a predetermined amount of water which is heated to a temperature such that the resulting blend will have a temperature above the melting point of the polyamide resin. A surfactant which will promote the emulsification of the polyamide resin and water is included in the mixture.
