Somewhat similar example: Say completely hypothetically I wanted to take an existing cleaning product (like CLR) and found out that it works to remove wine from couches. All I wanted to do to the product was to add in some dye the same as the color of the couch to make it more pleasurable to the consumer. Is this considered an improvement patent? I am changing the use of the product and industry it is marketed in but using the existing chemical balance and just adding in something for this new particular use. Any advice is helpful.|||Best I can say is that it depends
I suggest looking at the US Patent %26amp; Trademark website for information. Might help you
