Abstract

A stream of a molten moisture curable organosiloxane composition is entrained in a current of a heated gas containing a concentration of water vapor below the saturation level of the gas at 25.degree. C. The gas current directs the organosiloxane composition toward the surface to be coated and provides an environment adjacent to the surface of the coated substrate that causes at least the surface layer of the composition to cure at a rate that is substantially constant and independent of the temperature and humidity in the macroscopic environment of the substrate.
