[0001] This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/367,611, filed Feb. 14, 2003, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety TECHNICAL FIELD [0002] This invention relates to dry paint transfer laminates. These laminates comprise a dry paint film layer, an adhesive layer overlying one side of the dry paint film layer, and a release liner overlying the other side of the dry paint film layer. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Conventional painting using liquid paint requires set up steps involving masking off areas not to be painted and the spreading of drop cloths. Conventional painting also requires messy clean up of brushes, rollers, and the like, the problem of spills, exposure to fumes, and delays while the paint dries. When special effects such as faux finishes are desired, additional time and effort is required to apply additional coats. [0004] The present invention provides a solution to these problems. With the present invention it is not necessary to mask off areas that are not to be painted and it is not necessary to use drop cloths. The messy clean up of brushes, rollers, and the like is avoided. Spills and exposure to fumes are avoided. Delays waiting for paint to dry are avoided. Special effects such as faux finishes can be accomplished with a single application. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0005] This invention relates to a dry paint transfer laminate, comprising: a dry paint film layer comprising a binder and a pigment, the dry paint film layer having an upper surface and a lower surface; an adhesive layer overlying the upper surface of the dry paint film layer; and a release liner overlying the lower surface of the dry paint film layer. [0006] In one embodiment, the release liner comprises: a backing liner which has an upper surface and a lower surface; a first release coating layer overlying the upper surface of the backing liner; and a second release coating layer overlying the lower surface of the backing liner. [0007] In one embodiment, a transparent film layer is positioned between the lower surface of the dry paint film layer and the release liner. [0008] In one embodiment, a printed decorative layer is positioned between the lower surface of the dry paint film layer and the release liner. [0009] In one embodiment, a transparent film layer is positioned between the printed decorative layer and the release liner. [0010] In one embodiment, a second printed decorative layer is positioned between the second dry paint film layer and the release liner. [0011] In one embodiment, a transparent film layer is positioned between the second printed decorative layer and the release liner. [0012] In one embodiment, another release liner overlies the adhesive layer. [0013] This invention relates to a method of coating a substrate, comprising: placing the above-indicated laminate over the substrate with the adhesive layer in contact with the substrate and adhering the laminate to the substrate; and separating the release liner from the laminate leaving the dry paint film layer adhered to the substrate. [0014] This invention relates to a method of making a dry paint transfer laminate, comprising: coating one side of a release liner with a paint film layer and drying or curing the paint film layer, the paint film layer comprising a binder and a pigment, the paint film layer having an upper surface and a lower surface, the release liner having a release surface, the lower surface of the paint film layer being adhered to the release surface of the release liner; and applying an adhesive over the upper surface of the paint film layer.
