Abstract

Abstract A method of applying multi-color flocking to a base structure in a predetermined pattern. The base surface has an adhesive applied thereto over an area corresponding to the predetermined pattern, and the base surface is advanced through a series of flocking stations, each of which includes a supply of flocking of a different color and each of which includes a flocking stencil which is perforated with a different portion of the predetermined pattern. At each station, the particular flocking stencil thereat is interposed in spaced relation between the flocking supply and the base surface, and flocking is caused to pass through the perforations in the flocking stencil by an electrical potential.
