A method for coating a tile element includes providing a tile element made of a compressed fibre material having a porosity in the range of 0.92-0.99 and applying a water-based coating material to a side edge surface of the tile element extending between two opposite major surfaces of the tile element. The applying is performed by an applicator head of a continuous vacuum coating apparatus that applies the water-based coating material to the side edge surface of the tile element and removes excess through a vacuum. The water-based coating material is applied at a feeding rate of the tile element relative the applicator head in the range of 25-150 m/min. The water-based coating material forms a coating layer including an outer coating layer and an inner coating layer penetrating the side edge surface. The inner coating layer has penetration depth of at least 100 μm.

The present invention relates to a process for leather edge painting. More particularly, the present invention relates to the process [200] wherein the liquid edge paint is converted to solid colour sticker film [205]. More particularly, the present invention relates to the process wherein the liquid edge paint is converted to solid colour sticker film on a transparent film [205], and transferring from the transparent paper to the edges of a substrate material. Further, the process of the present invention provides liquid edge paint transferred to the substrate edge for one or more applications.

The present invention is directed to an acrylic polymer prepared from a reaction mixture comprising: (i) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer comprising hydroxyl functional groups; (ii) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer comprising polydialkylsiloxane groups; (iii) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer comprising carboxylic acid functional groups or amine functional groups; and (iv) a reactive diluent that is reactive with the ethylenically unsaturated monomer (iii). The reactive diluent (iv) is present initially in the reaction mixture as a medium in which the monomers polymerize. The present invention is further directed to aqueous polymeric dispersions prepared therefrom and aqueous, curable film-forming compositions prepared from the dispersions. The curable film-forming compositions are low VOC and are useful in methods of mitigating dirt build-up on a substrate.
