Abstract: A method includes a step of applying an aqueous 2-package type first colored paint to form an uncured first colored coating film; a step of applying an aqueous 1-package type second colored paint to form an uncured second colored coating film; a step of applying a solvent-based 2-package type clear paint to form an uncured clear coating film; and a step of heating the uncured first colored coating film, the uncured second colored coating film and the uncured clear coating film to 75 to 100° C. to simultaneously cure these films. The solvent-based 2-package type clear paint contains a hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin and a polyisocyanate compound in a ratio of 1.5 to 2.0 equivalents of isocyanate groups in the polyisocyanate compound relative to 1 equivalent of hydroxyl groups in the hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin.

Abstract: A remote-control device, according to the present invention, is for a camera having a light signal receiver that receives a light signal. The remote-control device includes a light signal transmitter, a position adjuster, and a switch member. The light signal transmitter transmits the light signal. The position adjuster adjusts the relative position of the light signal transmitter with respect to the camera. The switch member is connected to the light signal transmitter and commands the light signal transmitter to transmit the light signal. The switch member is movable with respect to the light signal transmitter, and the position adjuster adjusts the relative position of the light signal transmitter so that the light signal is received by the light signal receiver.
