PURPOSE:To form a multi-colored pattern with excellent reproductivity, while letting a water-insoluble solvent act as a carrier, by dividing the surface of water into a solvent supply part and a pattern designing part through a paint supply part by weirs. CONSTITUTION:The surface of water inside a water tank 1 is divided into a solvent supply part 7, a paint supply part 8 and a pattern designing part 5 by providing weirs 9-11 therein. A water-insoluble solvent having specific gravity below 1.0 and surface tension smaller than that of paint is supplied to the solvent supply part 7 by a solvent supply means 2. After the predetermined amount of said solvent is sent into the paint supply part 8 by opening the second weir, paint is supplied by paint supply means 3, 4. Hereon, the paint to be used is one prepd. by combining several kinds of patterning paints or base paint, patterning paint, etc. Thereafter, the paint and the solvent are diffused to the pattern designing part 5 by opening the third weir to form a flow pattern. After the pattern is sufficiently diffused, it is transferred to a plate for use in building 6 as a workpiece to be coated.
