The methods involve applying a plurality of wet layers to a substrate simultaneously or in sequence using a slot die coater, wherein a plurality of wet layers can be applied before any of the individual layers are dried, gelled, cured and/or fused. The layers remain separate and distinct before and after drying, gelling, curing and/or fusing, and can be dried, gelled, cured and/or fused together or separately after wet on wet application to the substrate.
