    B. applying a primer coat over an entire broad surface of said base film;

    C. applying over a portion of said primer coat a masking coat abhesive thereto, said masking coat applied in a predetermined pattern defining the outer border of said selective decoration;

    D. applying a metal coat over the entire surface of the coated base film of Step C to completely cover said primer coat and said masking coat and to make direct interfacial contact therewith;

    E. bonding the coated base film of Step D to a mask-removing resin film bearing a pressure-sensitive adhesive coat, with said adhesive coat positioned for contact with said metal coat; and

    F. separating the coated base film of Step E from said mask removing film;

    whereby the masking coat and the portions of the metal coat disposed thereover are removed from said base film and adhesively bound to said mask removing film, andwhereby said directly decorated resin film consists essentially of said base film bearing said selective decoration comprising said primer coat disposed against said base film and said metal coat disposed against said primer coat.
