Abstract: A sheet material is provided having a smooth continuous top sheet material to which a non-slip foam is directly adhered. The material is created by casting a styrene butadiene material directly on the sheet material without the use of an intermediate layer and curing the material on the film.

Abstract: A bath mat comprises a base member made from a first elastomeric material and at least one contrast member differing from the base member but manufactured to be integral with the base member through an over-molding or co-molding process. The contrast member differs in color and/or hardness or feel from the base member providing improved aesthetics and functionality.

Abstract: A paint mask particularly adapted for masking comer areas of a demarcation zone to facilitate painting of an area of a workpiece disposed on the other side of the demarcation zone is formed of a thin, flexible sheet having opposite faces. The paint mask includes a first leg and a second leg that are generally rectangular in shape, and the legs intersect to form a right angle adapted for masking a comer and adjacent area. The bottom side of the paint mask which contacts the surface to be masked includes an adhesive for adhering the mask to the workpiece. The top side has release means for releasing stacked paint masks from each other.

Abstract: A glue stick product allows a user to hold the product in a natural pen-like orientation when applying glue to a substrate. The product has a cap which is separable along a mating line offset from perpendicular at about 35° with the upper part of the cap connected to the lower part by means of a live hinge.

Abstract: An adhesive, paint and adhesive film removal tool provides different scraping edge configurations for different substrates. The removal tool has a gripping portion which acts also as a bottle cap and a blade portion having a gently curved portion, a straight edge portion and a sharp edge portion allowing one to remove adhesive, paint and adhesively bound film from a variety of substrates.

Abstract: A laminate material having nonslip characteristics on one surface and a smooth surface on the other side is provided. The material is created by laminating together a smooth film and a plastic foam surrounding a scrim having nonslip characteristics.

Abstract: A weather barrier kit is provided comprising double-faced tape used to bond a film to a window frame and a folded and rolled sheet of film having a stiffening band and strip of adhesive across the top. The provision of a stiffening band with adhesive thereon across the top of the film allows one to apply the film squarely, without stretching and without the need of measuring beforehand.

Abstract: A mailer product is described which can be sold free of external packaging thus allowing single unit quantities to be sold at a reasonable price. The product is provided with a separable merchandiser panel containing desired merchandising information connected to the product at a perforated line with notches at each end for ease of separation. A vertical extension on one side of the merchandiser panel allows merchandising information to be provided above merchandising hook level in an area heretofore wasted.

Abstract: A sheet material is provided having a smooth top and a continuous non-slip foam bottom. The material is created by laminating a printed plastic sheet to a foam material carried on a non-spun polyester fabric.

Abstract: A roll tape dispenser adapted to be made by injection molding is provided. The roll tape dispenser includes an integral molded frame, a generally planar tape guide portion, a pair of side walls extending rearwardly from the tape guide portion, a pair of hubs supported by each of the side walls, the hubs adapted to support a roll of tape having a selected inside radius of curvature, each hub comprising an arcuate top portion and two hub side portions. The hub side portions have surfaces which converge downwardly below a parting line on the frame and converge upwardly above the parting line whereby the dispenser can be molded in a slideless mold.

Abstract: A portable lap desk and activity station is provided for use by a small child, middle aged children and even adults. The lap desk includes a front side wall, a rear side wall and edge walls extending therebetween which define a main compartment.
