Abstract

See full text

A method conceals optical defects in surfaces. The method includes: obtaining a digital image by a digital optical recording the optical defect and a surrounding surface; obtaining an imitation of the surface in a region of the at least one optical defect by image processing of the digital image; printing a mirror-inverted, true-to-scale representation of the surface imitation onto a transfer film; soaking the transfer film; applying an activator onto a the transfer film or onto the surface; aligning the transfer film onto the surface so that the surface imitation on the transfer film coincides with the optical defect on the surface; pressing the transfer film onto the surface; peeling the transfer film from the surface; pressing on the ink remaining on the surface; and after complete drying of the activator and of the ink: applying a protective layer onto the surface imitation.
