ABSTRACT:
A method of designing and producing a mold for manufacturing an article having at least one surface coated by a coating. The method including evaluating the article design to determine the probable flow characteristics of the mold, an optimal flow of the coating composition, and an optimal location for the coating composition injector. A mold is designed and produced based on the evaluation.
