Abstract
A process for coating an upper surface of a panel with a mesh reinforced coating includes the steps of: placing a cementitious mixture in a container having a measured slit in the bottom thereof; passing a length of mesh through the container to produce a cementitious laden mesh; moving said panel and container with respect to each other while laying said cementitious laden mesh onto the upper surface of the panel; and cutting off the mesh to provide a coated panel. The coated panel may be subjected to vibration to smooth the upper surface thereof.

A process for coating an upper surface of a panel with a mesh reinforced coating comprising the steps of:
- placing a thick cementitious mixture in a container having a measured slit in the bottom thereof and an opening for the feeding of a length of mesh;
- placing a source of mesh so that a length of the mesh can be fed into said container;
- placing a panel to be coated below said bottom of said container;
- passing said length into said opening of said container, through the upper surface of said thick cementitious mixture and through said thick cementitious mixture and out of the measured slit in the bottom of the container to produce a cementitious-laden mesh and passing said cementitious-laden mesh through an area of space between the measured slit and the panel and into contact with an upper surface of said panel;
- moving said panel and said container with respect to each other while laying said cementitious-laden mesh onto said upper surface of said panel;
- and
- cutting off said cementitious-laden mesh below said measured slit to provide a coated panel having a wet cement layer on at least a portion of its upper surface and further having a reinforcing mesh therein.

- moving said container over said panel, said panel being stationary during the moving of said container while laying said cementitious-laden mesh onto said upper surface of said panel;
- and
- cutting off said cementitious-laden mesh below said measured slit to provide a coated panel having a wet cement layer on at least a portion of its upper surface and further having a reinforcing mesh therein.
