METHOD OF FORMING BRILLIANT MULTI-LAYERED COATING FILM

摘要

This invention provides a method for forming brilliant multi-layered coating film excelling in brilliance, which comprises the steps of applying an effect pigment^-containing, water^-borne base coating composition (A1) containing inorganic fine particles having an average primary particle diameter not more than 1 µm and having a solid content of at least 15 mass% but less than 45 mass% onto a substrate to form a first base coating film; successively applying onto the first base coating film an effect pigment-containing, water-borne base coating composition (A2) having a solid content of at least 5 mass% but less than 15 mass %; and curing the two coating films by heating.
