A process is provided for coating a substrate by applying to a substrate an aqueous coating composition that comprises (a) an aqueous dispersion of a film forming polymer having a minimum film forming temperature not higher than 45 DEG C.; (b) a solid, particulate polymer having a softening temperature in the range of 45 DEG to 260 DEG C. and an average particle size in the range of 2 to 400 mu m and (c) a solid, rubberlike polymer having an average particule size in the range of 1 to 500 mu m, the resulting coating being cured at a temperature of 70 DEG -260 DEG C. The invention also relates to the liquid aqueous coating composition to be used in said process. |
