Auftragen

Coatings
In a patent relating to thermoplastic coatings, 'Auftragen' occurs in a list of coating methods. Can it mean anything more specific than 'application'?
Context: "...das Aufbringen der ersten und zweiten Schichten. Dieses Aufbringen erfolgt durch Gießen, Auftragen, Coextrusion oder Laminieren".
I'm translating 'Aufbringen' as 'deposition' here, although I know it can also be 'application'. "This deposition takes place by casting, application, coextrusion or lamination" doesn't sound quite right to me, though.

I'd also like to thank Edith here, who also suggested 'coating' within her answer."
