hether for individual architectural applications, in the automotive or sports equipment fields or as stylish interior design elements: Effect metallic surfaces are in demand more than ever. They underscore the quality of an object, turning it into a distinctive, one-of-a-kind piece. A process known as “bonding” is often used to make powder coatings with metallic effects: Here, powder and effect pigments are mixed homogeneously using shear force and temperature, a process in which the pigments bond on to the powder grain surface. The result is impressive – however standard single-coat effect powder coatings cannot quite compete with the optical performance of corresponding liquid paints. In order to meet the various demands for brilliancy and depth,
