A composite component includes a plastic substrate and a transfer foil adhered thereto. The plastic substrate and the foil are proud and define a peripheral edge with a tight outer radius. A thin first coating layer, such as a base coat or primer layer, is applied over the plastic substrate and foil and adheres the both the plastic substrate and foil. A thicker second coating layer, such as a clear coat, is applied over the first coating layer and adheres to the first coating layer. The first coating layer has a lower viscosity than the second coating layer. The second coating layer is more ductile than the first coating layer. The first coating layer acts a primer layer for applying the second coating layer. The second coating layer therefore protects the substrate and transfer foil and can withstand thermal shock and water immersion.

A paint dispenser which, when pushed against a surface, releases a metered amount of phosphorescent paint or fluorescent paint in sufficient quantity to simulate a single star when room lighting is turned off. The pump is mounted to a common handle by screw-on means so that an operator's reach is extended from normal standing height to a height sufficient to contact the ceiling with the depositor.

A covering element includes a carrier plate including a mineral material, wherein the carrier plate is formed as a flat mineral carrier plate having a thickness between 3 and 15 millimeters (mm), complementary recesses and protrusions formed, respectively, on opposing lateral edges of the carrier plate, such that, in an assembled condition of two or more covering elements, the complementary recesses and protrusions are configured to engage with complementary protrusions and recesses, respectively, of another of the two or more covering elements, and a decor layer with a polymer and on a front side of the carrier plate. The décor layer includes at least at least one, color pigment-containing, printing layer.

Provided is a film that has high-quality low gloss appearance with a small change in appearance of texture as observed at various viewing angles and that has tactile texture. Solution means A film of an embodiment is a film including a surface layer embossed, wherein the surface layer includes a low gloss layer and a gloss printed pattern partially covering the low gloss layer, (1) 85-degree surface glossiness of the surface layer is less than or equal to 3.5 GU as an in-plane average value; (2) Δ85-degree surface glossiness defined by a difference between an in-plane maximum value of the 85-degree surface glossiness and the in-plane average value of the 85-degree surface glossiness of the surface layer (= in-plane maximum value of 85-degree surface glossiness - in-plane average value of 85-degree surface glossiness) is from 0.2 to 2.5, and (3) surface roughness Ra of an embossed surface of the film is greater than or equal to 3.5 .Math.m.

A method for manufacturing a product having a surface provided with embossments, includes bringing a material web is in contact with a roller. The roller is provided with a relief at its surface, with which, via this relief, embossments are formed in the material web. The roller has a circumference of which, or at least certain parts thereof that are variable, or alternatively the circumference of the roller is variable by making use of embossing elements, wherein the mutual angular position thereof is adjustable.
