[0039] A 100% solids sprayable UV curable coating composition was formulated according to Table 1. Coatings were made by adding the components in the order indicated in Table 1 under agitation (500 RPM to 1000 RPM). The final coating was filtered through a 10 μm screen and stored in metal tanks for spray application. The formulation was applied to flat oak planks suitable for flooring with a general purpose air gun available from Binks Inc. The final coating is about 2 mils (0.05 mm) thick. The coated panels were conveyed into a slow UV curing unit and the conditions in Table 2 below were applied to form a B-stage coating.

[0062] A low viscosity 100% solids sprayable UV curable coating composition was formulated according to Table 4. Coatings were made by adding the components in the order indicated in Table 4 under agitation (500 RPM to 1000 RPM). The final coating was filtered through a 10 μm screen and stored in metal tanks for spray application. The formulation was applied to flat oak planks suitable for flooring with a general purpose air gun available from Binks Inc. The final coating is about 1 mil (0.025 mm) thick. The coated panels were conveyed into a slow UV curing unit and the conditions in Table 2 above were applied to form a B-stage coating.

[0073] The 100% solids sprayable UV-curable coating compositions in Table 1 were B-staged under the conditions in Table 2. A high-medium-low-gloss textured polymer film described in Table 6 was then applied to the exposed surface of the B-stage coating before being conveyed into a UV curing oven. The texture from the film was physically transferred to the B-staged coating which was then fully cured according to the conditions in Table 3 above.
[0074] Table 6 also shows the effect of the film applied to the surface texture of the coating. All measurements were taken at 60 degrees with a white light interferometer (Veeco NT2000) and a portable micro-gloss meter from Byk Gardner. These data demonstrate that applying a thin film with desired texture or gloss can be used to control the surface roughness and gloss of a B-staged coating, and that changes in roughness and gloss are retained in the fully cured coating.
