Abstract
A tool is provided for applying a flowable composition onto a receiving surface. The tool includes a polyceramic coating on a surface thereof and may take the form of a stencil or mold. Also provided are an apparatus and a method that uses the tool. In use, the tool is placed such that its polyceramic-coated surface is in contact with the flowable composition, which, in turn, simultaneously contacts the receiving surface.
