Abstract: The invention relates to process for the preparation of a visual properties-matching multilayer coating sheet comprising the steps of a) determining the visual property data of a surface to be matched in visual properties; b) transmitting the data from step a) to a system configured to receive such data, and determination of the composition data of a coating composition having an acceptable match of visual properties; c) preparing a visual properties-matching coating composition according to the determined composition data; d) providing a base sheet layer optionally having an adhesive layer and a backing layer on one surface; e) applying the visual properties-matching coating composition to one surface of the base sheet layer to form a colour- and/or effect-imparting coating layer; f) optionally, drying the applied colour- and/or effect-imparting coating layer; g) optionally, applying a clear coat layer on top of the colour- and/or effect-imparting coating layer; h) optionally, drying and/or curing the clear

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for repair of a coated substrate comprising the steps of a) applying a liquid, ambient temperature curable two-component coating composition on an area of the coated substrate that needs to be repaired, wherein curing of the two-component coating composition commences upon mixing of the components and does not require UV or electron beam radiation or supply of thermal energy, b) applying a film on top of the applied coating composition, c) allowing the applied coating composition to cure, and d) removing the film from the cured coating composition on the substrate. The invention also relates to a kit of parts for carrying out the process, comprising a film and a liquid, ambient temperature curable two-component coating composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a spray gun for application of a coating having a spray nozzle and at least one actinic radiation outlet, characterized in that the at least one actinic radiation outlet is positioned externally and the radiation outlet and the spray nozzle are simultaneously directable to a substrate to be coated, and to a process of applying a coating composition which is at least partly curable by actinic radiation. The spray gun according to the invention is suitable for all types of actinic radiation-curable coating compositions, even if there is no induction period between the initiation by actinic radiation and the actual onset of the curing reaction. The balance of flow of the coating material just after application and the drying speed are particularly favourable.
