Abstract: A solvent borne brushable coating composition and process for using the same are provided. The composition includes a crosslinkable component having one or more polymers having two or more crosslinkable groups a crosslinking component comprising one or more crosslinking agents having crosslinking groups; and 2 weight percent to 50 weight percent of drying oil comprising linseed oil, tung oil, poppy seed oil, perilla oil, walnut oil or a combination thereof. When a layer a pot mix resulting from mixing of the crosslinkable and crosslinking components is brush applied over a substrate, it has a low brush drag while providing desired coating properties, such as high gloss and rapid cure even under ambient conditions. The solvent borne brushable coating compositions is well suited for use in automotive refinish applications.

Abstract: A coating composition comprises high oleic oil, wherein the high oleic oil comprises C18:1 fatty acids in a range of from about 60% to 100% of the fatty acid moieties in the high oleic oil and a combination of C18:2 and C18:3 fatty acids in a range of from 0% to about 10% of the fatty acid moieties in the high oleic oil, percentage based on the total fatty acid moieties in the high oleic oil. The disclosure is further directed to a coating composition comprising the high oleic oil produced from bio-resources, such as soybeans. The coating composition can have low VOC (volatile organic compounds) and can produce a coating layer having good hardness, better appearance and improved adhesion. The coating composition can be used for coating vehicles, appliances, machinery, tools, or other industrial or consumer articles.
