resin coating," which may be applied by conventional spraying and
blade wiping techniques (page 2 of Reply Brief, paragraph four).
Hence, based upon the genus embraced by allowed claim 53, which
has original descriptive support, and the acknowledged prior art
found in appellants' specification, we are of the opinion that
the subject matter defined by appealed claims 61 and 62 finds

meaning of 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph.
In conclusion, based on the foregoing, the examiner's
decision rejecting the appealed claims is reversed.
