International Classification:

A45D 2400

US Classification:

Abstract:

A finger nail is decorated with an image printed on a piece of glossy coated paper, such as from a magazine, by applying a film-forming substance over the image to the piece, the substance including a resin and a solvent that is capable upon drying of forming a film that is sufficiently flexible and extensible to permit it to conform to the surface of the nail. After allowing the substance to dry and form the film, the paper under the film is wetted with water and the paper is removed to leave a film/image/paper-coating sandwich that is substantially free of paper fibers. The sandwich is cut to form a blank of a size and shape to fit the margins of the cuticle bordering the finger nail. The sized and shaped blank is applied to the finger nail, and a settable nail top coat substance in liquid form is applied over the blank and allowed to dry.

Abstract:

A paint roller support assembly comprises an elongated handgrip member having an internally threaded sleeve at its distal end and a roller-supporting rod member attached to the handgrip member by an externally threaded portion. The roller-supporting rod member is L-shaped, having mutually perpendicular leg portions. Each leg portion receives a rotatable paint roller assembly in a position such that longitudinal elements of the roller surfaces in the plane of the leg portions and nearest to the handgrip member form an internal corner. The threaded connection between the roller-supporting member and the handgrip member permits the roller assembly on the leg having the threaded portion to be removed and replaced. The paint roller support assembly is intended for simultaneously painting surfaces that face generally away from and laterally, relative to the user.
