ABSTRACT:
Smooth articles such as bows and rifles are coated during a finishing process to form a rough, nubby exterior surface having a unique, three-dimensional appearance for facilitating concealment of the article among vegetation. The method in accordance with one preferred embodiment of the invention includes the steps of initially coating the object with a uniform base color such as battleship gray, and then applying splatter paint through a specially configured orifice to provide a number of raised, spaced apart images over the base color. Next, a number of removable, self-adhering templates are placed over the article in spaced relation to each other, and a second coat of splatter paint of color different than the color of the underlying discrete, splatter paint images is applied to the spaces between adjacent templates. The article thus camouflaged presents different colors in different planes in directions looking toward the article, to thereby provide a realistic duplication of the three-dimensional appearance of natural foilage.
