Claims14
A method of making a color sampling display product, the method comprising:
- providing an unsized paper substrate selected from card stock, paper board, or laminate with a thickness of 50 μm to 125 μm and having at least a first major surface to which a coating composition can be applied;
- applying a film-forming amount of a radiation-curable acrylic coating composition comprising
- a water-based polymer composition;
- and
- a support polymer composition
- to the first surface of the unsized paper substrate to form a visually opaque colored film;
- and
- using electron beam radiation to cure the applied coating composition onto the first surface of the paper substrate,
- wherein the coating composition is substantially free of volatile organic compounds, and comprises no more than 2 wt-% surfactant, and
- wherein the color sampling display product comprises a device for accurate display of one or more colors.
