upper surface as described above alternatively a decorating station not shown could be provided between the unwind station 42 and the release coating station 44 with continued reference to fig5 the release coating station 44 applies the release coating 20 to the downwardly facing upper surface 18 of the substrate 16 release coating station 44 may comprise a basin 52 that stores a liquid release coating material and nip rollers 54 and 56 that draw the web 30 u2032 through the release coating station 44 while transferring the release coating material to the web 30 u2032 the release coating may be cured with a uv curing device 58 located downstream from the release coating station 44 in the direction of web movement the adhesive application station 46 applies adhesive 22 to the bottom surface 24 of the substrate 16 the adhesive 22 may be applied by contact using a slot nozzle rollers or the like or without contact by for example melt blowing or a controlled fiberization u00ae spray application or any number of airless or air assisted spray methods in the typical case in which the finished rolls 32 are less than 2 u2032 wide and the bulk substrate of the web 30 u2032 being unwound from the unwind station 42 is much wider typically on the order of 6 u2032 to 8 u2032 the web 30 u2032 can be slit to the desired widths of webs 30 using slitters 60 spaced along the width of the web 30 u2032 the slitters 60 may for example comprise rollers or knives the adjacent webs 30 are then wound on axially aligned rolls.
