First Claim
1. A process for coating a substrate with a base lacquer layer and a clear topcoat lacquer layer, comprising:
- applying a base lacquer layer onto a substrate, applying an uncured clear topcoat lacquer layer onto the base lacquer layer in a wet-on-wet manner, exposing the uncured clear topcoat lacquer layer to high-energy radiation to partially cure the clear topcoat lacquer layer, and thereafter jointly stoving the base lacquer layer and the clear topcoat lacquer layer, wherein the base lacquer layer comprises at least one feature selected from the group consisting of a color and an effect, wherein the clear topcoat lacquer layer has a resin solids content including 50 wt. % to 98 wt. % of a thermally curable polymer system (A) which is thermally curable by addition reactions, condensation reactions, or both, the system (A) containing substantially no free-radically polymerizable double bonds and substantially no groups capable of reacting in another way with free-radically polymerizable double bonds of system (B), and 2 wt. % to 50 wt. % of a free-radical curing polymer system (B) which is curable via high-energy radiation mediated free-radical polymerization of olefinic double bonds, wherein total weight percentages add up to 100 wt. %, and wherein C═
C equivalent weight of the resin solids total content from system (A) and system (B) is between 300 and 10,000.

Abstract
A process for lacquer coating substrates with a colored and/or effect base lacquer and a clear lacquer topcoat, in which a colored and/or effect base lacquer layer of a base lacquer coating composition is applied onto a substrate and is provided in a wet-on-wet process with a clear lacquer coating. Before being jointly stoved or jointly cured with the base lacquer layer, the uncured clear lacquer layer is exposed to high-energy radiation. In the clear lacquer coating composition, the resin solids content contains 50 to 98 wt. % of a system A) thermally curable by addition and/or condensation reactions, which system contains substantially no free-radically polymerisable double bonds and substantially no groups capable of reacting in another way with free-radically polymerisable double bonds of a system B). The resin solids content further contains 2 to 50 wt. % of a system B) which is curable under the action of high-energy radiation by free-radical polymerisation of olefinic double bonds, wherein the weight percentages adds up to 100 wt. % and the C═C equivalent weight of the total resin solids content of A) and B) is between 300 and 10000. Clear lacquer coating compositions made by the process are also described.
