The curable composition according to the present invention has excellent water repellency and water sliding properties, and good application workability, wear resistance, and storage stability. This curable composition is particularly useful for the formation of a coating on a metal surface, a coated surface, or a resin surface of an automobile body or a train car for the purpose of imparting, to the surface, water repellency, water sliding properties, durability, etc. This curable composition contains: (A) 100 parts by mass of a silicone resin having a viscosity of 50-500 mm 2 s -1 at 25°C and having a hydrolysable group, (B) 1.0-30 parts by mass of an aluminum-based catalyst for condensation reaction, and (C) 600-1700 parts by mass of an organic solvent which contains 40 mass% or more of a naphthene hydrocarbon compound and of which the temperature range from the boiling point or initial boiling point to the dry point thereof falls within the range of 140-200°C. |
