A coating composition is described comprising a polymer resin binder and opt ically variable thin film dichroic pigment flakes. The pigment flakes have a multilayer thin film interference structure comprising a metal reflector layer having first and second paralle l planar surfaces and, disposed on at least one of said first and second planar surfa ces, at least one transparent dielectric layer. The coat ing composition further comprises an interference mica pigment having an interfe rence color that is the same as one of the dichroic colo rs of the optically variable thin film pigment. This coating composition can be us ed to prepare a variety of coatings, especially color-pl us-clear composite coatings such as those used in the automative industry.
