International Classification:

B05D 3/00

US Classification:

427140000

Abstract:

A method for refinishing a damaged area of a substrate, such as an existing finish on a vehicle which includes the steps of preparing a damaged area for refinishing, by cleaning and/or sanding, providing a multi-component coating composition which includes at least two components having functional groups reactive with each other in a crosslinking reaction and spreading the coating composition onto the area to be refinished using a squeegee applicator.

Abstract:

A groundcoat coating composition comprising: between about 1% by weight and 10% by weight based on the total weight of the groundcoat coating composition of at least one metallic flake pigment comprising pigment particles having an average particle size in the range of 5 to 15 microns; between about 1% by weight and 10% by weight based on the total weight of the groundcoat coating composition of a second metallic flake pigment comprising pigment particles having an average particle size in the range of 15 to 50 microns; between about 1% by weight and 80% by weight based on the total weight of the groundcoat coating composition of at least one film-forming polymer resin selected from the group consisting of acrylic polymers, modified acrylic polymers, polyesters, polyepoxides, polycarbonates, polyurethanes, polyamides, polyimides, polysiloxanes, and mixtures thereof; and between about 1% and 50% by weight based on the total weight of the groundcoat coating composition of a topcoat coating composition. A method of forming a coating on a substrate comprising applying the groundcoat coating composition to the substrate. Also, a coated substrate comprising the groundcoat coating composition.

Assignee:

THE SHERWIN-WILLIAMS COMPANY - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

B05D 3/02

US Classification:

427140, 427379

Abstract:

Methods and compositions for coating a substrate with at least a basecoat layer and clearcoat layer allow quick repairs to damaged vehicle panels under ambient temperatures and without requirement of actinic or thermal radiation to cure the layers. At least one basecoat and one clearcoat layer may be applied to a substrate and the clearcoat layer may be buffed with less than 30 minutes allocated to curing the basecoat and clearcoat layers, under ambient conditions, prior to buffing. Methods and compositions are also taught for coating a substrate with at least a primer layer, a basecoat layer, and a clearcoat layer, in which the clearcoat layer may be buffed with less than about 45 minutes allocated to curing the primer, basecoat and clearcoat layers, under ambient conditions, prior to buffing.

US Classification:

427514, 427521

Abstract:

Methods and associated compositions are described for applying onto a substrate a cured coating that includes at least one layer of a water-borne basecoat and one layer of clearcoat and that requires a maximum total curing time of less than about 45 minutes. Further described are methods and associated compositions for applying onto a substrate a cured coating that includes at least one layer of primer, at least one layer of a water-borne basecoat and at least one layer of clearcoat and that requires a maximum total curing time of less than about 65 minutes.
