Abstract
The invention relates to a method for painting an object during a creative shaping process, for example an injection-molding, extrusion-molding, or back-foaming method with a paint film, as well as a paint film for working the method. In the method, a paint film is placed in an open mold that internally has the original shape of the part. The mold is closed and filled with a starting material, with the starting material curing and/or bonding and/or reacting inside the mold to at least shape the object. To simplify the method, the paint in the paint layer of the paint film is partially cured and/or partially crosslinked before the starting material is added, without adhesive, and is cured only during and/or after the starting material is placed in the mold.
