One variation of a method for fabricating a dermal heatsink includes: fabricating a substrate defining an interior surface, an exterior surface opposite the interior surface, and an open network of pores extending between the interior surface and the exterior surface; activating surfaces of the substrate and walls of the open network of pores; applying a coating over the substrate to form a heatsink, the coating comprising a porous, hydrophilic material and defining a void network; removing an excess of the coating from the substrate to clear blockages within the open network of pores by the coating; hydrating the heatsink during a curing period; heating the heatsink during the curing period to increase porosity of the coating applied over surfaces of the substrate; and rinsing the heatsink with an acid to decarbonate the coating along walls of the open network of pores in the substrate.

Provided is a method for forming a multilayer coating film, the method being capable of forming a multilayer coating film having excellent chipping resistance, adhesion, and finished appearance. The method for forming a coating film uses a 3-coat and 1-bake system in which a three-layered multilayer coating film obtained by sequentially applying a first coloring paint (X), a second coloring paint (Y), and a clear coating paint (Z) onto an object to be coated is heated and cured at the same time, wherein the first coloring paint (X) and the second coloring paint (Y) contain a hydroxyl group-containing resin, and the clear coating paint (Z) contains a hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin (a) and an aliphatic triisocyanate compound (b1) having a molecular weight within a specific range.
