Sheetstock including a relatively thin portion on at least one of the longitudinal edges for facilitating use of the sheetstock in an ink jet or laser printer. The relatively thin portion may be easily removed after printing. Also, the sheetstock may be divided into a number of portions which may be easily separated from one another after printing.

Sheetstock adapted for use with laser and ink jet printers

A coaster for use underneath liquid containers, such as drinking glasses, beverage cans, etc., comprises an upper pad formed of a liquid-absorbent material and a lower pad formed of a thermal insulating material. The two pads are separated by a liquid barrier material so that the insulating pad is maintained in a dry operable condition. A series of adhesive patches are arranged on the upper face of the coaster, whereby the coaster can be releasably attached to the bottom surface of a liquid container.

A brushless white-out correcting fluid applicator for use in applying white-out fluid to paper without using a brush. The white-out fluid is a suspension including a substantial proportion of white or substantially white particles, such as titanium dioxide, or other color particles. The applicator includes a wear-resistant, porous tip and a regulator between the tip and a reservoir. The regulator may be formed of foam material, and the tip may be of sturdy porous plastic. The size of the pores in the tip and regulator are large enough so that they do not become clogged with particles in the white-out fluid. The regulator prevents the tip from dripping by regulating the rate at which fluid can leave the reservoir. The size of the pores adjacent the reservoir may be different than the size of the pores and passageways adjacent the tip. The applicator may be provided with an air-tight cap to avoid drying out between uses. Alternative embodiments of the applicator include a foam tip with a nylon mesh outer covering for wear resistance; and an internal, pressure actuated valve may be included to regulate the flow of the white-out suspension to the tip.

A pressure sensitive adhesive tape, such as a white typing correction tape, is wound up with backing tape or a liner tape wound between successive turns of the tape. The backing tape is cut into short lengths, and the correction tape is bent sharply back upon itself over a 'peeling' member as it is dispensed, to separate the short lengths of the backing or liner tape and leave them behind in the carton. The space within the standard size dispenser package is adequate to hold the waste pieces of backing tape as the correction tape roll is used up. A short cutting blade may be provided to cut off desired lengths of the correction tape.
