Abstract: A UV/visible light reactive coating material to provide a permanent, hard, durable protective coating to stone, ceramic, glass, metal and hard plastics. The coating material comprises a novel blend of photoinitiators, UV curable resin blends, blends of specific acrylate and methacrylated monomers, a wetting agent, UV absorbers and stabilizers, a rheology modifier, adhesive agents, air-release agents and self leveling agents plus miscellaneous additives to impart specific properties required.

Abstract: A method for applying a protective coating to a surface. The method is achieved by applying a radiation curable reactive coating material to the surface and exposing the applied coating to a source of light for a predetermined time and at a predetermined intensity to effect polymerization of the coating.

Abstract: A method for applying a protective coating to a surface. The method is achieved by applying a radiation curable reactive coating material to the surface, covering the coating material with a film and rolling the film to ensure contact between the film and the coating material, exposing the applied coating to a source of light for a predetermined time and at a predetermined intensity to effect polymerization of the coating, and removing the film to reveal the cured coating.
