A process for producing multicoat color and effect paint systems by applying at least two pigmented coating materials to a primed or unprimed substrate and curing the resulting pigmented films comprises n (I) applying at least one pigmented coating material (A) comprising at least one effect pigment to the primed or unprimed substrate to give the pigmented film(s) (A), n (II) drying the pigmented film(s) (A) without complete curing, n (III) applying at least one pigmented coating material (B) comprising at least one transparent color pigment to the outer surface of the pigmented film(s) (A) to give the pigmented film(s) (B), n (IV) drying the pigmented film(s) (B) without complete curing, n (V) applying at least one unpigmented coating material (C) to the outer surface of the pigmented film(s) (B) to give the unpigmented film(s) (C), and then n (VI) jointly curing the films (A), (B), and (C) to give the multicoat color and effect paint system (A/B/C). |
