Abstract

A process for producing a multi-layer coating upon a substrate surface, in which there is first applied to the surface a pigmented basecoat composition and then there is applied to the basecoat film a transparent topcoat composition; characterized in that the basecoat composition is based upon a dispersion in an aqueous medium of crosslinked polymer microparticles which have a diameter of 0.01-10 microns, are insoluble in the aqueous medium and are stable towards gross flocculation, the dispersion having a pseudoplastic or thixotropic character.
