A method of producing an article with a coating having friction-reducing properties in wet condition, the coating including a binder (a), a hydrophilic polymer (b), as well as an osmolality-increasing compound (c), where the osmolality-increasing compound (c) is applied in a condition different from a water-based dissolved condition, preferably in a non-dissolved, solid condition, as well as an article with a coating having friction-reducing properties in wet condition, the coating comprising a binder (a), a hydrophilic polymer (b), and an osmolality-increasing compound (c) in form of particles of a size of maximum 50 mu m. The method can be performed in a simple and fast manner without involving a time-delaying evaporation of water, and the article is remarkable for the osmolality-increasing compound being uniformly dispersed in the coating. |
