Abstract

Abstract A wax applicator laminate for transfering wax compounds to a surface, the wax applicator laminate comprising a carrier sheet being substantially impervious to the passage of melted wax therethrough and being less adherent to solidified wax on a first surface thereof, and a layer comprising solidified wax which is adhered to the second surface of the carrier sheet. In the method of applying a coating of wax to a surface, the carrier sheet is heated to melt the solidified wax compound and to deposit a coating of wax on the surface.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A heat actuated wax applicator laminate for applying a thin, generally uniform coating of wax on a surface such as the bottom of a ski or the like by contacting the laminate with a heated surface, comprising: a sheet of porous and absorptive cellulose material having a first side and a second side; a layer comprising solidified wax, a portion of said solidified wax layer being absorbed by said porous and absorptive material to bind said solidified wax layer to said second side of said porous and absorptive cellulose material; and a substantially continuous nonadherent barrier coating comprising resin bonded to said first side for being contacted with said heated surface, said nonadherent barrier coating being nonadhering to said heated surface and not becoming tacky at temperatures sufficient to melt said solidified wax and being impermeable to melted wax to substantially prevent melted wax from seeping therethrough to contact said heated surface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 152 words
A heat actuated wax applicator laminate for applying a thin, generally uniform coating of wax on a surface such as the bottom of a ski or the like by contacting the laminate with a heated surface, comprising: a sheet of porous and absorptive cellulose material having a first side and a second side; a layer comprising solidified wax, a portion of said solidified wax layer being absorbed by said porous and absorptive material to bind said solidified wax layer to said second side of said porous and absorptive cellulose material; and a substantially continuous nonadherent barrier coating comprising resin bonded to said first side for being contacted with said heated surface, said nonadherent barrier coating being nonadhering to said heated surface and not becoming tacky at temperatures sufficient to melt said solidified wax and being impermeable to melted wax to substantially prevent melted wax from seeping therethrough to contact said heated surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 1 wherein said cellulose fiber paper has a weight of between about 30 and about 50 pounds and has a thickness between about 2 and 5 thousandths of an inch.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 44 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 2 wherein said solidified wax layer defines a portion which is not absorbed into said paper, said unabsorbed portion of said layer having a thickness in the range between 1 and about 5 thousandths of an inch.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 3 wherein the cellulose fiber paper is substantially saturated with solidified wax.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 3 wherein a portion of the cellulose fiber paper is saturated with solidified wax.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 3 wherein said nonadherent barrier coating comprises a cured silicon resin.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 6 wherein said solidified wax layer comprises from 20 to 100 weight percent wax.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 20 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 7 wherein said unabsorbed portion of said way layer is uniform and continuous.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 27 words
A wax applicator laminate according to claim 8 wherein said unabsorbed portion of said wax is in the shape of a plurality of elongated strips of wax.
