Abstract: The coating method includes the intercoating step for spraying the intercoating paint over a substrate after undercoating, the intercoat drying step for drying the intercoat on the substrate, the overcoating step for spraying the overcoating paint over the dried intercoat on the substrate, and the overcoat drying step for drying the overcoat. In the intercoating step, the intercoating paint is sprayed in such an amount as causing sag, that is, in an amount beyond its sagging threshold value. In the intercoat drying step, the substrate is rotated about its horizontal and longitudinal axis to dry the intercoat.

Abstract: A fiber-reinforced urethane molding comprises a molded urethane layer reinforced by inclusion of reinforcing fibers, and a hard urethane-based coating film overlaid on the surface of the molded urethane layer. The hard urethane-based coating film contains aluminum flakes dispersed therein in an amount within the range of 5% to 40% by weight, whereby projection of the reinforcing fibers out of the surface of the molded urethane layer is prevented by the aluminum flakes and the coated urethane molding exhibits high distinctness of image gloss.
