The present invention relates to a release liner composition in which the adhesion of silicone has been improved between a silicone coating and a surface treating layer and so silicone rub-off prevented. The improvement of adhesion is based on a polymeric surface treating agent structure comprising a moiety or moieties that are compatible with a substrate and/or a coating on the surface of the substrate, and a moiety or moieties that are reactive or at least compatible with the silicone coating. The present invention also relates to a base material and a method of producing a base material, and a surface treating agent for a base material and a use of a surface treating agent.
