Coating compositions for basecoats containing acrylic branched polymers

摘要

This invention relates to rapid drying coating compositions that are particularly useful for automotive and truck refinish applications; the coating composition is pigmented and contains a branched acrylic polymer and is particularly useful as a basecoat for a basecoat clear coat finish; the coating composition may preferably be used as a lacquer coating, which dries via solvent evaporation absent any substantial crosslinking occurring or it optionally may contain a polyisocyanate crosslinking agent and be used a clear topcoat.
