Methods and apparatuses for coating a flexible substrate are provided. The flexible substrate is guided over a process roller. The flexible substrate has a first protective film, which is removed from the flexible substrate before the flexible substrate reaches a coating zone of a coating device located opposite the process roller. The first protective film is removed from the flexible substrate after the flexible substrate has formed a mechanical contact with the surface of the process roller. A second protective film is applied to the coated side of the flexible substrate after the flexible substrate has left the coating zone of the coating device and before the mechanical contact between the process roller and the flexible substrate is ended.

A method for reducing the adhesion of dirt to a substrate is provided, where a thin, incompletely closed layer of a material is deposited on at least one surface area of the substrate by means of a vacuum deposition process, and then said surface area is acted upon by accelerated ions.

Methods are provided for modifying a transparent and electrically conductive metal-oxide coating deposited on a plastic substrate. At least one surface region of the metal oxide coating is impinged by a pulse-driven electron beam. The impingement of the surface region of the metal oxide coating by the pulse-driven electron beam occurs inside a vacuum chamber into which hydrogen, argon, nitrogen, or oxygen, or a gas mixture of at least two of the above-mentioned gasses has been introduced.
