The method comprises applying an adhesive to one surface of a polymer film, applying an acrylic gel to the opposed surface of the polymer film, imprinting a texture to the acrylic gel and then drying the acrylic gel to retain the textured surface, and laminating a transparent protective layer to the surface of the gel using an adhesive. The textured film may be laminated over an image to provide texture to the surface of the image.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed March 26, 1998 and granted May 25, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 26, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 26, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
