Multilayer coating film

A multilayer coating film comprising:

• a first base coating film formed from a water-borne first base coating composition on an article to be coated;
• a second base coating film formed from a water-borne second base coating composition on the first base coating film;
• and
• a clear coating film formed from a clear coating composition on the second base coating film, wherein
• in the water-borne first base coating composition, a luster pigment and two or more coloring pigments are contained,
• a solid component concentration NV1 is 20 to 35% by mass,
• PWCG1 of the luster pigment is 1 to 25%, and
• PWCC1 of the coloring pigments is 0.1 to 5.0%;
• in the water-borne second base coating composition, a luster pigment and two or more coloring pigments each having a same Color Index name as those of the coloring pigments contained in the water-borne first base coating composition are contained,
• a solid component concentration NV2 is 7 to 30% by mass,
• PWCG2 of the luster pigment is 5 to 35%, and
• PWCC2 of the coloring pigments is 0.5 to 20.0%;
• a ratio (T1/T2) of a thickness T1 of the first base coating film to a thickness T2 of the second base coating film is 1.5/1 to 5/1;
• a ratio (NV1/NV2) of the solid component concentration NV1 to the solid component concentration NV2 is 1.3/1 to 3/1;
• a ratio (PWCGi/PWCG2) of the PWCG1 of the luster pigment to the PWCG2 of the luster pigment is 1/10 to 1/1;
• and
• a ratio (PWCci/PWCC2) of the PWCC1 of the coloring pigments to the PWCC2 of the coloring pigments is 1/5 to 1/1.
