s BACKGROUND OF TAE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention This invention is directed to coating compositions of acrylic fluorocarbon polymers and fluorinated polyisocyanates that remain relatively dirt free under exterior use conditions and are easily cleaned for 1 o example by washing with water when soiled.
2. Description of the Prior Art Acrylic fluorocarbon polymer containing coating compositions that contain relatively small amounts of fluorocarbon constituents having resistance to cratering are shown in Chang US Patent i5 4,371,657 issued February 1, 1983 and Chang US Patent 4,396,680 issued August 2, 1983. Coating compositions of blends of acrylic polymers and acrylic polymer containing fluorocarbon constituents that form antiicing coatings are well known. Clear coats containing acrylic polymers having small amounts of fluorocarbon constituents that are applied over metallic a o base coats to provide auto finishes that have good weatherability, have high water and oil repellence and stain resistance are shown in Sugimura et al US Patent 4,812,337 issued March 14, 1989.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF TFIE INVENTION
The coating composition of this invention primarily is used as a clear coat over a pigmented base coat containing solid color pigments or s5 metallic flake pigments or mixtures thereof. The coating composition also can be used as a conventional pigmented composition. The coating composition can be applied with conventional spray equipment and cured at ambient temperatures or slightly elevated temperatures which decrease drying time. The resulting finish has excellent gloss and distinctness of image.
Preferably, the coating composition is a clear coating s composition, i.e. containing no pigments or a small amount of transparent pigment. The composition has a relatively high solids content of about 45-80% by weight of binder and about 20-55% by weight of an organic carrier which can be a solvent for the binder or a mixture of solvents and non solvent which would form a non aqueous dispersion. The composition has i o a low VOC (volatile organic content) and meets current pollution regulations.
The acrylic polymer used in the coating composition is prepared by conventional polymerization techniques in which the monomers, solvent, and polymerization initiator are charged over a 1-24 15 hour period of time, preferably in a 2-8 hour time period, into a conventional polymerization reactor in which the constituents are heated to about 60-175°C, preferably about 140 - 170°C.

When the coating composition is used as a clear coating composition usually over a pigmented base coat, it may be desirable to use pigments in the coating composition which have the same refractive index as the dried coating. Typically useful pigments have a particle size of about 35 0.015-50 micron and are used in a pigment to binder weight ratio of about 1:100 to 10:100 and are inorganic siliceous pigments such as silica pigment having a refractive index of about 1.4-1.6.

It is highly desirable to use at least some fluorinated organic polyisocyanate crosslinking agent, as described above, in the pigmented base coat over which the clear coat of this invention is applied to significantly reduce cratering of the base coat. Usually, about 10-40% by s weight, based on the weight of the binder, of the fluorinated polyisocyanate is used in the base coat.
When the coating composition is used as a clear coating on a vehicle such as a car, truck, bus, train, or on construction equipment, industrial equipment, structures such as tanks, bridges, exterior or interior i o of buildings, a basecoating which may be either a solvent based or waterbased composition is first applied and then the clear coating is applied usually by conventional means such as spraying or electrostatic spraying.
The clear coating is dried and cures at ambient temperatures but moderately high temperatures of up to about 90°C can be used to shorten drying time.
i5 The coating composition can be used as a conventional pigmented coating composition containing pigments in a pigment to binder weight ratio of about 0.1-100. The composition can be used to coat any of the aforementioned items and substrates and provides a finish that has good gloss and is weatherable, tough and hard.
