Abstract: The invention relates to a process for repairing coated substrate surfaces comprising the following successive steps:

Abstract: A process for the production of a multi-layer coating, wherein a primer layer which is electrically conductive in the at least partially cured state is applied by electrodeposition from an electrodeposition coating agent (I) to an electrically conductive three-dimensional object, at least partially cured exclusively by the action of near infra-red radiation substantially only on the surfaces of the object exposed to the radiation, and an additional coating layer is applied by electrodeposition from an electrodeposition coating agent (II) which is different from electrodeposition coating agent (I), and then this additional coating layer as well as completely uncured or incompletely cured area parts of the primer layer produced from electrodeposition coating agent (I) are cured.

Abstract: Improved aqueous powder coat dispersion, comprising (a) a powder coating dispersed in (b) an aqueous phase, wherein the aqueous phase contains a silica compound selected from the group consisting of (i) 0.2 to 2% by weight, based on the weight of the powder coating, of finely divided silicic acid with large BET-surface; (ii) 0.1 to 1.5% by weight, based on the weight of the powder coating, of layered silicates; and (iii) combinations thereof, exhibit improved sedimentation properties and provide coatings with improved sag characteristics.

Abstract: The process of this invention applies at least one coating composition to an optionally precoated substrate and then cures the thus obtained coating layer(s), whereby at least one of the coating layers is prepared from a coating composition that can be chemically cross-linked solely by radical polymerization of olefinic double bonds, the resin solid of the composition has a C═C equivalent weight from 100 to 10,000, preferably from 100 to 5,000, and the curing of the coating layer(s) is carried out with NIR radiation in the wave length range from 760-1500 nm.
