Abstract: Purpose of the present invention is consists in provision of a water-borne metallic color coating composition, a two-coating and one-baking application method therewith, and a multilayered coating film having an excellent flip-flop property thereby, wherein the water-borne metallic color coating composition has superior properties such as coloring property, recoat adhesion, chipping resistance, water-resistant adhesion, and the like. The water-borne metallic color coating composition can provide a coating film having the above-superior properties and an excellent flip-flop property, by a two-coating and one-baking application method, without disturbing the orientation of the luster color pigment(s) therein before/after an application of a clear coating composition and without adversely effecting on the flip-flop property.

Abstract: A curable coating composition comprises (a) a component having an active methylene group and/or an active methane group, (b) a component having a methacrylate group and/or an acrylate group, (c) a Michael reaction catalyst, and (d) a photo-polymerization initiator.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a curable coating composition having much less of a volatile organic component, and being excellent in coating film performance such as durability and scratch resistance, and a coating film forming method using the above curable coating composition capable of suppressing generation of sagging and so on.

Abstract: The present invention provides a thermosetting coating composition having a storage stability sufficient to be formed into a one-pack coating despite a small content of organic solvent contained therein and having a sufficient curability, and a method of forming a coating film by which the content of the organic solvent present in a coating at the time of application can be reduced.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a curable coating composition having much less of a volatile organic component, and being excellent in coating film performance such as durability and scratch resistance, and a coating film forming method using the above curable coating composition capable of suppressing generation of sagging and so on.

Abstract: The present invention, therefore, provides a method of forming a metallic coating film comprising forming a metallic base coating film and a clear top coating film on a substrate provided with an undercoating film and optionally an intermediate coating film in advance,

Abstract: The present invention provides a clear liquid coating composition comprising (a) a compound having at least 2 carboxyl groups, (b) a compound having at least 2 epoxy groups, (c) 0.01 to 3.0 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the total resin solid of an onium salt, which is used as a top coating composition for a pre-coated surface.

Abstract: A resin composition curable through a Michael reaction between (a) a component having a plurality of .alpha., .beta.-unsaturated carbonyl groups and (b) a component having a plurality of activated methylene, activated methyne or hydroxyl groups is disclosed. The curing reaction is catalyzed with a quaternary ammonium, quaternary phosphonium or tertiary sulfonium salt in the presence of an epoxy compound independently added to the composition or covalently attacted to either component (a) or component (b).
