Abstract: A coating process wherein a precoated automotive substrate is OEM top coated with an aqueous two-component polyurethane top coating composition prepared by static mixing a non-aqueous hydrophobic polyisocyanate crosslinker component and an aqueous binder component having a binder solids content comprising at least one water-dilutable hydroxyl-functional binder and 5 to 30 wt.-% of a urethane compound A with at least two terminal urethane groups (—NHC(O)OR; R=hydrocarbyl residue of a monoalcohol) and having a number-average molar mass (Mn) of from 400 to 5,000.

Abstract: A coating process wherein a precoated automotive substrate is OEM clear coated with a two-component polyurethane clear coat composition prepared by static mixing a binder component having a solids content of 42 to 50 wt.-% comprising at least one hydroxyl-functional binder and a volatile organic content of 50 to 58 wt.-% and a polyisocyanate crosslinker component having a solids content comprising a free polyisocyanate solids content consisting of 75 to 100 wt.-% of at least one polyisocyanate of the 1,6-hexane diisocyanate isocyanurate type and of 0 to 25 wt.-% of at least one polyisocyanate of the isophorone diisocyanate isocyanurate type, wherein the sum of the respective wt.-% in each case totals 100 wt.-%.

Abstract: A two-component polyurethane clear coat kit system consisting of: (1) a binder component having a solids content of 42 to 50 wt.-% comprising at least one hydroxyl-functional binder and a volatile organic content of 50 to 58 wt.-%, and (2) a polyisocyanate crosslinker component having a solids content of 66 to 70 wt.-% and a volatile organic content of 30 to 34 wt.-%, wherein the solids content of the polyisocyanate crosslinker component comprises a free polyisocyanate solids content consisting of 75 to 100 wt.-% of at least one polyisocyanate of the 1,6-hexane diisocyanate isocyanurate type and of 0 to 25 wt.-% of at least one polyisocyanate of the isophorone diisocyanate isocyanurate type, wherein the sum of the respective wt.-% in each case totals 100 wt.-%.
