A metallic stamp and die for the craft industry comprises a predetermined acid-etched design on a surface of a metallic plate. A first layer of a metallic paint is applied over the front and back surfaces of the metallic stamp and die. A second layer of a rubber paint is applied over the metallic paint. The metallic paint facilitates bonding of the rubber paint to the metallic plate and increases the life of the coating of the rubber paint. The rubber paint is configured to absorb and store an ink and facilitate transfer of the ink to one or more substrates, thus enabling stamping of the design on the substrate. The metallic die can be configured for a plurality of uses, such as embossing, cutting, heat-foiling, stamping, scoring, and inserting patterns or designs in a plurality of substrates.

A composition for application to a substrate comprising a carrier, a permanganate ion source, and a corrosion inhibitor comprising a rare earth ion, an alkali metal ion, an alkaline earth metal ion, and/or a transition metal ion is disclosed. A substrate or article including the composition for application to a substrate, and a method of treating a substrate comprising applying the composition to a substrate to form a permanganate treated surface of the substrate and applying a lithium containing composition on the permanganate treated surface are also disclosed.

An anti-corrosion composite layer includes a first anti-corrosion coating coated on a substrate, and a second anti-corrosion coating coated on the first anti-corrosion coating. The first anti-corrosion layer includes a plurality of first graphene nanosheets and a first carrier resin, wherein a surface of each the first graphene nanosheet has a first lipophilic functional group for chemically bonding to the first carrier resin, the first lipophilic functional group is selected from carboxyl, epoxy and amino. The second anti-corrosion coating includes a plurality of second graphene nanosheets and a second carrier resin, wherein a surface of each the second graphene nanosheet has a second lipophilic functional group for chemically bonding to the second carrier resin, the second lipophilic functional group is selected from hydroxyl and isocyanic acid group.

This disclosure relates to improved systems and methods for applying coatings to brake rotors. The systems, methods, and techniques described in this disclosure facilitate application of both pretreatment coatings and protective coatings to brake rotors. Other embodiments are disclosed herein as well.

A method for manufacturing a vehicle part, including the steps of a) overmolding a semi-transparent film on a transparent or translucent part, b1) applying a paint layer on the semi-transparent film, b2) applying a varnish layer on the paint layer, and b3) partially irradiating the paint layer and the varnish layer with laser radiation so as to etch the paint layer and the varnish layer, step a) being implemented before step b1) or after step b3).

The disclosure discloses a method for forming a rubber layer on a surface of a resin material. In the method, painting is first performed on the surface of the resin material to form a painting layer, using a paint to which a pigment has been added; then, rubber coating is performed to form a rubber layer on the painting layer. The method of the disclosure may be used in surface treatment of a fastener product. The disclosure further discloses a slide fastener, a buckle and a snap button using the method of the disclosure. The method of the disclosure may solve a conventional problem that a rubber coating is likely to fall off a resin surface, and the rubber on the surface of the resultant fastener product is less likely to fall off.

Films including a water-soluble layer and a vapor-deposited organic coating are disclosed. The films can optionally further include a vapor-deposited inorganic layer. The films exhibit enhanced barrier properties.
