Patent ID: 7446149

Claim:
A refinish composition comprising (a) a hydroxyl-functional acrylic polymer, wherein the acrylic polymer has a number average molecular weight of at least about 5000 and is polymerized using at least about 45% by weight of a cycloaliphatic monomer, based on the total weight of monomers polymerized, (b) at least one film-forming polymer different from the acrylic polymer of (a) comprising a second hydroxyl-functional acrylic polymer, and (c) optionally, at least one curing agent for the acrylic polymer of (a) and/or the film-forming polymer of (b), wherein the acrylic polymer of(a) is from about 5% up to about 60% by weight of the combined weight of the acrylic polymer of (a) and the film-forming polymer or polymers of (b) and further wherein the refinish composition is a refinish clearcoat composition.
