DEFINITION

Classification: 427/271

(under subclass 256) Processes which include intentionally deforming or removing portions of the surface of the base; or deforming or removing selective portions of the coating.

(1) Note. For the general line between this subclass and Class 264, Plastic and Nonmetallic Article Shaping or Treating: Processes, with regard to the combination of processes of reshaping or deforming plus coating, see the notes to Class 264, subclass 129.

(2) Note. The deformation or removal step, per se, is also included in this and the indented subclasses when not more specifically provided for in other classes.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

257, wherein the coating is self-deforming.

264, and 270, for similar processes which include applying a plurality of coatings.

355+, for utilizing a solid treating member on the coating which leaves the coating uniform. SEE OR SEARCH CLASS

118, Coating Apparatus,

44, for coating apparatus combined with means to deform the base, and subclasses 100+ for coating apparatus having solid members acting on the coated base to modify the coating.

156, Adhesive Bonding and Miscellaneous Chemical Manufacture,

625+, for methods of etching and for combinations of etching and coating where the etching itself is intended as a manufacturing step and not merely a preparatory, perfecting step for the coating.

264, Plastic and Nonmetallic Article Shaping or Treating:

Processes,

129, for processes of molding or shaping within the class definition plus a coating step.
