    Abstract: The present disclosure provides processes and systems for generating a coated article having a virtual embossing effect. A process comprises applying a wet layer of a coating composition on a substrate, the composition comprising a curable resin and a plurality of flake-form pigments; forming a pattern of the pigments in the wet layer; and curing the wet layer thereby forming a cured layer, wherein the formed pattern of the pigments is capable of remaining substantially unchanged after curing and results in a virtually embossed effect of the cured layer. A coating system comprises a substrate; a coating composition comprising a curable resin and a plurality of flake-forming pigments; means for applying a wet layer of the composition onto the substrate; means for forming a pattern of the pigments in the wet layer; and means for curing the wet layer to form a substantially cured layer. The cured article derived from the processes and systems preferably may have a substantially even surface.

    Abstract: A method for forming a multilayer coating film, comprising sequentially applying a first colored paint (X), a second colored paint (Y), and a clear paint (Z) to a substrate, and heating the three layers of the obtained multilayer coating film separately or simultaneously to cure these layers. The first colored coating film has a lightness L* within the range of 30 to 60, the second colored coating film has a light transmittance at a wavelength of 400 nm or more and 700 nm or less within the range of 15% or more and less than 30%, and |h(X)−h(S)|, which is a difference between a hue angle h in the L*C*h color space diagram of the first colored coating film (h(X)) and a hue angle h in the L*C*h color space diagram of the multilayer coating film (h(S)), is within the range of 0 to 30.
