Abstract: There are provided a new visible ray reflection plate capable of making the light from a lighting device and an electric/electronic device emitting a light signal brighter and an electric/electronic device using the new visible ray reflection plate. The visible ray reflection plate 1 includes a white resin sheet 5 superimposed on a metal plate 3 which may be plated wherein the area ratio of air bubbles existing at the boundary between the white resin sheet 5 and the metal plate 3 which may be plated is not greater than 5%. Alternatively, the visible ray reflection plate 1 includes a white resin sheet 5? having a visible ray diffuse reflectance of 0.07 or above at the surface of 555 nm and infrared total radiation ratio 0.60 or above at the area of the wave number 600 to 3000 cm?1 measured at a predetermined temperature from 80 degrees C. to 200 degrees C. which resin sheet is arranged on one side of the metal plate 3 which may be plated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for painting all or part of a cut edge of a precoated steel sheet or its shaped article to which a masking film is attached, wherein a painting pad comprised of a sponge or nonwoven fabric and/or woven fabric is impregnated with a paint, the surface of the painting pad is wiped with gas to remove the excess paint, then the painting pad is pressed against the cut edge of the precoated steel sheet under force control.

Abstract: Paint coated metal sheets are provided by applying a paint film on a metal sheet wherein the paint film has a surface layer having a thickness of one-5000 angstroms. The paint film contains fluorine atoms and/or perfluoralkyl groups such as methyl fluoride, ethyl fluoride, the fluorine atoms and/or perfluoralkyl groups being introduced in the paint film by a plasma treatment.
