ABSTRACT:
A container closure includes a cap for sealing a container against leakage, and a brush for spreading contents of the container. The cap includes a top wall, an internally threaded skirt depending from perimetrical portions of the top wall, and a stem depending from a central portion of the top wall. The brush includes a plurality of bristles having (1) mounting portions which are secured to the lower end region of the stem, and (2) applicator portions which depend below the stem for brushing the contents of the container onto a surface. The cap is a one-piece structure having its brush-supporting stem formed integrally with other parts of the cap. A method of forming the assembly includes the steps of molding the cap using a specially configured mold which has at least three relatively movable parts for defining a mold cavity and for effecting a pop-off type of ejection of the threaded cap from the mold once the integral cap and stem having been molded, whereafter the brush bristles are inserted into or otherwise secured to the cap's stem.
