Claim:
1. A method of manufacturing a polarizing article, comprising the following steps: brushing a first surface of a substrate to produce microgrooves in the first surface; depositing a dichroic dye on the microgrooves in the first surface of the substrate and fixing the dichroic dye on the substrate with an ion exchange treatment in an acidic solution to form a polarizing layer on the substrate; applying a light curable primer over the polarizing layer; curing the light curable primer using an irradiating light to form a cured primer layer; applying an abrasion resistant protective composition to the cured primer layer; and curing the protective composition to form a cured abrasion resistant protective coating; wherein curable primer comprises: wherein the at least one (meth)acrylate reactive diluent is present from 50 wt % to 90 wt % of the primer, the at least one unsaturated oligomer is present from 7 wt % to 50 wt %, and the at least one photoinitiator is present from 0.5 wt % to 6 wt %.
