Abstract

Provided is a method for forming a multilayer coating film that is capable of forming a multilayer coating film that has pearly luster with excellent blackness and high reflectance of an infrared laser. The method for forming a multilayer coating film includes applying a carbon black pigment-containing first colored paint (X) to form a first colored coating film; applying a second colored paint (Y) containing a pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide to form a second colored coating film; applying a clear paint (Z) to form a clear coating film; and heating the first colored coating film, the second colored coating film, and the clear coating film separately or simultaneously to cure these films, wherein the first colored coating film has a lightness L*(45°) of less than 20, the multilayer coating film has a lightness L*(45°) of less than 20, and the multilayer coating film has a diffuse reflectance of 10% or more at a wavelength of 905 nm.

First claim

1 . A method for forming a multilayer coating film, the method comprising
step (1): applying a carbon black pigment-containing first colored paint (X) to form a first colored coating film, step (2): applying a second colored paint (Y) containing a pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide to the first colored coating film to form a second colored coating film, step (3): applying a clear paint (Z) to the second colored coating film to form a clear coating film, and step (4): heating the first colored coating film formed in step (1), the second colored coating film formed in step (2), and the clear coating film formed in step (3) separately or simultaneously to cure these films, wherein the first colored coating film has a lightness L*(45°) of less than 20, the multilayer coating film has a lightness L*(45°) of less than 20, and the multilayer coating film has a diffuse reflectance of 10% or more at a wavelength of 905 nm.

2 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 1 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains a metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1) and/or a metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2).

3 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 2 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1), and the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1) has a hue angle h (15°) within the range of either 240° to 360° or 0° to 100° in an L*C*h color space.

4 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 2 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1), and the content of the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1) is within the range of 5 to 20 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the resin solids of the second colored paint (Y).

5 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 3 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1), and the content of the metal-oxide-coated mica pigment (A1) is within the range of 5 to 20 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the resin solids of the second colored paint (Y).

6 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 2 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2), and the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2) has a hue angle h (15°) within the range of either 240° to 360° or 0° to 100° in the L*C*h color space.

7 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 2 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2), and the content of the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2) is within the range of 15 to 30 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the resin solids of the second colored paint (Y).

8 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 6 , wherein the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide contains the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2), and the content of the metal-oxide-coated glass flake pigment (A2) is within the range of 15 to 30 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the resin solids of the second colored paint (Y).

9 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 1 , wherein the second colored paint (Y) further contains a carbon black pigment (B).

10 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 9 , wherein the ratio of the carbon black pigment (B) to the pigment (A) that is a transparent or translucent base material coated with a metal oxide is 0.15 or less on a mass basis.

11 . The method for forming a multilayer coating film according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the diffuse reflectance at a wavelength of 905 nm to the average of diffuse reflectances at a wavelength of 400 to 700 nm of the multilayer coating film is 1.3 or more.
