In a method for coating motor vehicle wheel rims, a polymer priming layer, a polymer intermediate layer, a decorative layer of a heat-cured polymer layer with embedded flake-like metal pigments covering the visible surface of the decorative layer, and a polymer cover layer are consecutively applied to the wheel rim metal surface. The coated wheel rims achieve a polished metal appearance by producing the polymer intermediate layer with a high-gloss surface and applying the decorative layer to the high-gloss surface of the polymer intermediate layer in the wet spraying method with a layer thickness of max. 2 μm, where it is dried at ambient temperature and, before applying the polymer cover layer, it is fixed to the polymer intermediate layer via a thermal post-treatment so that it adheres to the surface thereof with a cross-cut pull-off strength of Gt=0 to Gt=2.

A method of forming a coating on a food or beverage container, which includes spraying a coating composition onto an interior surface of the food or beverage container, where the coating composition includes an emulsion-polymerized latex copolymer having copolymer chains of one or more mono-unsaturated monomers that are cross-linked with one or more multi-unsaturated monomers. The method also includes heating the sprayed coating composition to cure the coating composition, thereby providing the coating on the interior surface of the food or beverage container.

Due to the dynamic mechanical loads to which motor vehicle traction batteries are subjected, housings of battery cells of the traction batteries are covered at least in part by an electrically insulating layer made from a coating material. For this purpose, a method and a coating station for carrying out the method are proposed. The method is performed with a liquid electrically insulating coating material, by applying separately produced individual drops of the coating material using a coating applicator. The drops form coating points on an outer surface of the housing, which coating points are applied sequentially with the coating applicator, adjacently to one another or overlapping, so that together they form coating lines.
