A gas barrier laminate in which separation between a coating layer having gas barrier properties and a layer adjacent to the coating layer is less likely to occur. A coating solution for producing a gas barrier laminate contains a carboxyl group-containing polymer (A), polyvalent metal-containing particles (B), a surfactant (C), an organic solvent (D), and at least one silicon-containing compound (E) selected from the group consisting of a silane coupling agent represented by the following general formula (1), a silane coupling agent represented by the following general formula (2), hydrolysates thereof, and condensates thereof, wherein the mass ratio of the silicon-containing compound (E) to the carboxyl group-containing polymer (A) is 0.5% or more. Si(OR1).sub.3Z1 . . . (1); Si(R2)(OR3).sub.2Z2 . . . (2). (R1 and R3 are alkyl groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R2 is a methyl group, and Z1 and Z2 are a group containing an epoxy group.)

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a multilayer coating film with excellent performance such as acid resistance, by using a coating composition which is completely different from conventional clear coating compositions and cheaper than conventional non-melamine curing type, acid/epoxy type, and isocyanate type clear coating compositions. A method for forming a multilayer coating film comprising a step (1) of applying a base coating composition and a step (2) of applying a clear coating composition on a coating film formed in the step (1), wherein the clear coating composition causes a curing reaction through a transesterification reaction between a hydroxyl group and an alkyl ester group.

The present invention provides a carbodiimide composition containing a water-soluble modified polycarbodiimide (A) and a water-insoluble polycarbodiimide (B), a curing agent composition using the same, a coating composition, and a resin cured product.
