The coating solution can not only impart stability over time to the fluororubber paste, but also improve the interlayer adhesion and abrasion resistance of the fluororubber metal laminated sheet. Therefore, when it is used as a cylinder head gasket, it is possible to cope with the reduction in rigidity due to the increase in combustion pressure of the engine, and with weight saving. As a result, it will greatly contribute to the improvement of fuel efficiency of automobiles.
