- 38 - PROCESS FOR PRODUCING TEXTURED COATINGS Abstract of the Disclosure In a process for applying and curing a coating on a substrate, which coating has a thickness of about 0.1 mil to about 10 mils, with ultraviolet light comprising the following steps: (a) applying a coating, which is curable with ultraviolet light, to the substrate, said coating having a viscosity, as applied, of at least about 50 centipoises; (b) exposing the coated substrate to ultraviolet light having wavelengths in the range of about 1800 Angstroms to about 2750 Angstroms in an inert atmosphere for a period of time sufficient to initiate texturing at the surface of the coating; (c) maintaining the coated substrate from step (b) in a space essentially devoid of ultraviolet light for a period of time sufficient for the surface of the coating to texture; and (d) exposing the coated substrate from step (c) to ultraviolet light having wavelengths in the range of about 1800 to about 4000 Angstroms in an inert atmosphere or air until the coating is essentially cured, the improvement comprising, after step (a) and prior to step (b), without texturing, increasing the viscosity of the coating by exposing the coating to ultraviolet light, said viscosity being increased to a viscosity no higher than that at which the coating is capable of being textured in steps (b) and (c), above.
