Abstract: The present invention relates to coating compositions for wind turbine blades. The compositions are particularly useful as topcoats for wind blades and for Leading Edge Protection (LEP). The invention also relates to a wind blade coated with a coating composition of the invention and to a method for application of the coating composition and to a method for repairing and/or replacing the existing coating layer on a wind blade by application of a coating composition of the invention. The invention also relates to a kit of parts comprising the base composition and the curing agent used in the coating composition. The coating composition used for coating a wind blade comprises a base composition comprising a polyetheraspartic ester having the formula (I) below, wherein each R represents a linear or branched C1-C10 alkyl residue, such as a linear or branched C1-C6 alkyl residue, such as for example a methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl residue; and wherein X is a polyether.
