The pot mix has a limited potlife typically of minutes (5 minutes to 45 minutes) to a few hours (4 hours to 6 hours). The pot mix is applied as a layer of desired thickness on a substrate surface, such as an autobody. After application, the layer is cured under ambient conditions or cure-baked at elevated temperatures to form a coating on the substrate surface having desired coating properties, such as high gloss, mar-resistance and resistance to environmental etching.

• the coating exhibited gloss 90, DOI 90 and Tukon hardness 4.6.
• Protective Coating 5 was prepared as follows: Part A was prepared by mixing 20.0 parts of DER 736 20.0 parts of CYMEL 350, 2.0 parts of TINUVIN 384,
• This part A mixture was then combined with 52.5 parts of TOLONATE HDT-LV as a part B to form a clear composition.
• the composition had solid content of 88.0 weight percent, and a volatile organic compounds concentration of 1.09 lbs/gal.(0.13 Kilograms/liter).
• composition was then sprayed over a conventional silver metallic waterborne basecoat which had been applied to the similar substrate as described in Example 1 and prebaked at 82°C for 10 minutes, and baked at 140°C for 30 minutes similar to Example 1.
• the coating exhibited gloss 87, DOI 90 and Tukon hardness
