Abstract (en)

An improved process for applying a multilayer finish on a primer coated substrate by using a guide coating composition that is applied over the primer of the substrate and then a water borne base coating composition containing metallic pigments and a clear coating composition are applied; before the base coating composition is applied, the guide coating composition is dried at ambient temperatures or at elevated temperatures but not fully cured or crosslinked; the guide coating contains a polymeric latex in an aqueous carrier, preferably an acrylic latex, and optionally, a crosslinking agent and metallic flake pigments; the process improves the appearance, particularly head-on-brightness of water borne basecoat/clear coat finishes in which the base coat contains metallic flake pigments.
