ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for manufacturing a protective skin for resurfacing reusable beverage containers. First, the peripheral surface of a cylindrical beverage container is measured and recorded, the measurements being used as a template for forming the skin from the substrate. Second, a suitable thermoplastic substrate is chosen such as scratch resistant vinyl or LEXAN.RTM.. Third, a graphic image or product name can be back printed on the substrate. Fourth, an adhesive backing is applied to the printed side of the substrate. And fifth, the substrate is formed into the desired shape by an apparatus using the recorded measurements of the beverage container. The resulting chemical and abrasion resistant protective skin may then easily be applied by any consumer wishing to cover the peripheral surface of a reusable beverage container that may have become damaged through use or misuse or to apply custom graphics and/or a logo thereto.
