Claim:
1. A method for selectively restricting deposition of a spray coating on a substrate surface of a substrate, the substrate extending in a lateral-transverse plane defined by mutually orthogonal lateral and transverse directions, a longitudinal direction being orthogonal to both the lateral and transverse directions, the method comprising: directing the spray coating substantially longitudinally downward from a coating source toward the substrate surface; blocking at least a portion of the spray coating from reaching the substrate surface via a first substantially transversely extending restrictor bar located a first longitudinal distance above the substrate surface; and blocking at least a portion of the spray coating from reaching the substrate surface via a second substantially transversely extending restrictor bar located a second longitudinal distance, which is less than the first longitudinal distance, above the substrate surface, the second restrictor bar being entirely laterally spaced from the first restrictor bar.
