Abstract:
A method for producing a decorative design on a substrate by applying to the substrate an embossable coating comprising a filler, a binder, a release agent, a moisture control agent, and a liquid; drying the applied coating to remove a major portion of the liquid therefrom, sufficient liquid being retained to make the coating pliable and readily impressible by an embossing means; and subjecting the pliable coating to pressure contact with the embossing means, which is at ambient or an elevated temperature, to impress a decorative design into the coating; and the embossed coated substrate produced by the method.
