Layered apparatus and method

Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure are directed to apparatuses and/or methods involving a wall patch. As may be implemented in accordance with one or more aspects characterized herein, a wall patch has a plurality of layers including a base layer having an upper surface and a lower surface, and stacked layers stacked over the upper surface of the base layer. Each stacked layer is stacked on one of the other layers and has an exposed lower surface region that extends laterally beyond the layer upon which it is stacked. Adhesive may operate to adhere the exposed lower surface regions and the lower surface of the base layer may be adhered to a wall surface. The stacked layers, base layer and adhesive to provide a gradient defined by the thicknesses of the layers and adhesive, and defined by the area of the exposed lower surface regions of the stacked layers.
