Abstract

A paint composite article comprising a thermally deformable carrier film having an adhesive layer on one surface. A paint layer is positioned on the opposed side of the carrier film and a tiecoat is interposed between the carrier film and the paint layer to promote adhesion of the paint layer. The tiecoat is preferably a mixture of an acrylic polymer and polyurethane. The paint layer includes a pigmented basecoat layer adhered to the thermally deformable carrier film through the tiecoat layer and a transparent topcoat layer superimposed over the basecoat layer. The tiecoat may also include an aminoplast and an alkylbenzene.
