  • Patent number: 6632867
    Abstract: An adhesive caulking material comprising granular solid colored particles dispersed in a base formulation is disclosed. The adhesive caulking material exhibits a cosmetic capacity to take on the appearance of a natural or synthetic solid substrate. A method is provided for producing the adhesive caulking material comprising the steps of: (a) providing a base formulation exhibiting a desired background color; and (b) adding to the base formulation an amount of granular solid colored particles effective to achieve a desired appearance. The invention also relates to colored solid chips comprising a coagulated or aggregated mixture comprising a polymeric resin and an amount of one or more pigments sufficient to obtain a desired single- or multi-colored appearance. The chips have a granular shape and have a size in the range from about 0.25 mm to about 20 mm in diameter.

  • Patent number: 6302575
    Abstract: A jig is described that is suitable for mounting in a paint shaker. The jig includes a first (top) section and a second (bottom) section. Each of the top section and the bottom section includes a respective substantially cylindrical frame having a respective outer surface and an inner surface. Each respective inner surface has a plurality of respective openings for holding tubular containers, such as caulking tubes. The top section and the bottom section fit together in direct, seating contact to form a substantially cylindrical jig capable of holding a plurality of caulking tubes. The bottom section also has a plurality of third openings for receiving nozzle portions of the caulking tubes. When the top section and the bottom section are fitted together, with caulking tubes contained therein, nozzles of the caulking tubes do not project out from the top section.
