Claims20
A method of forming a laminate construction, comprising the steps of:
- applying a print receptive coating to a first side of a film;
- and
- laminating said film with said print receptive coating to a substrate to form a laminate construction.
A method of forming a laminate construction, comprising the steps of:
- applying a coating to a first side of a transfer film to impart a smoothness to said coating layer that corresponds to a smoothness of said first side of said transfer film;
- bonding said transfer film with said coating to a substrate to form a laminate construction, and in a manner such that said transfer film is removable from said laminate construction.
A laminate construction, comprising:
- a substrate;
- a transfer film;
- and
- a print receptive coating layer intermediate the substrate and the transfer film, the print receptive coating layer being releasably bonded to the print receptive coating layer;
- wherein the transfer film has a surface which imparts a correspondingly smooth surface to the print receptive coating layer;
- and
- wherein said transfer film is removable from said print receptive coating layer so as to expose said smooth surface of said print coating layer before said laminate construction is sheeted.
