Non-notable product, closely paraphrased from source. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:17, 11 August 2012 (UTC)


 * This is part of the text, copy and pasted from the pdf I mentioned, this is not much of a paraphrase. I think it's kind of spammy, too. :)


 * "A coating is placed into the open area between the plates, form- ing a wedge shaped film (Fig. 1). By sliding the top plate back and forth, a sharp line of demarcation alternatively appears and disap- pears (Fig. 2). The point at which the demarcation line appears is read on the engraved scale (Fig. 3). These scale readings are easily converted into thickness in mils, or coverage in square feet per gallon using the table furnished with the instrument."

 * That which was blatant has been removed. That being said, such a tool could be the common name for something and thus a basic stub could be worked up. The spammy bits are gone. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:12, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Excellent. Agreed about the stub, strange that there wasn't some sort of article already. Good call, hurray for putting (kinda-spam) to good use. heather walls (talk) 16:35, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect to film applicator per WP:NOTDIC. Agree with nom that an encyclopedic article may be viable if sources are found in the future, but there seems to be nothing worth merging here. -- Trevj (talk) 10:55, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
