Method for forming a 2-way coat

摘要

A method of forming a 2-way coat, which comprises the steps of: applying (1) a coating composition onto a thermoplastic resin base and drying the coating to form a colored layer, the coating composition (1) comprising: (A) an acrylic resin obtained by copolymerization of a monomer mixture comprising n-butyl (meth)acrylate and methyl (meth)acrylate, each in an amount of at least 30 wt.%; (B) a colorant; and (C) an organic solvent; applying (2) an energy beam curable overcoat composition onto the colored layer, the overcoat composition (2) comprising: (D) a compound having at least three (meth)acryloyl groups and having a molecular weight of 250 to 1,800; and (E) an acrylic resin obtained by copolymerization of a monomer mixture comprising at least 20 wt.% of methyl (meth)acrylate, the compound (D) amounting to at least 50 wt.% of overcoat film-forming components; and curing the applied overcoat composition by energy beam irradiation.
