Abstract
A method for making a finish-effect film which possesses pores in a predetermined design pattern by printing an absorbent water-swellable supporting web in a predetermined design pattern with a substance that retards penetration of water, coating the web with an aqueous resin preparation, and then curing the resin. Three-dimensional pores are produced in the web in a pattern corresponding to the predetermined design due to greater swelling of the unprinted areas of the web by impregnation of the water from the aqueous resin preparation as compared to the printed areas. The thus produced finish-effect film can be used for decorative purposes in a manner similar to wood veneers.
