A system for applying a coating composition is provided herein. The system includes a first high transfer efficiency applicator defining a first nozzle orifice and a second high transfer efficiency applicator defining a second nozzle orifice. The system further includes a reservoir. The system further includes a substrate defining a first target area and a second target area. The first high transfer efficiency applicator and the second high transfer efficiency applicator are configured to receive the coating composition from the reservoir and configured to expel the coating composition through the first nozzle orifice to the first target area of the substrate and to expel the coating composition through the second nozzle orifice to the second target area of the substrate.

A multilayer coating film 12 includes a bright layer 15 and a colored layer 16 superposed on the bright layer 15, the bright layer 15 including aluminum flakes 22, and the colored layer 16 including a black pigment 23 dispersed in the colored layer 16.
