Claim:
1. A method for preparing an aqueous film-forming curable coating composition comprising: mixing at least one latex polymer and at least one aliphatic epoxy resin having an epoxy equivalent weight less than 1000 and being distinct from the at least one latex polymer to provide an aqueous first component; and providing a second component having reactive groups that can react with the at least one aliphatic epoxy resin; wherein a mixture of the first and second components provides the aqueous film-forming curable coating composition; and the coating composition contains about 5 to about 60 wt. % solids based on the total weight of non-volatile components in the coating composition and contains at least about 2 wt. % and less than about 40 wt. % aliphatic epoxy resin based upon total solids in the coating composition.
