One package system cold-setting coating compositions

A one-package system cold-setting coating composition which consists essentially of (i) an acrylic copolymer having carboxyl groups in its molecule or an alkyd resin as a resin component, (ii) an aluminum alkoxide complex, (iii) a keto-enol tautomeric compound and (iv) a solvent, and (v) from 0.01 to 10 percent by weight of at least one nitrogen compound based on the weight of the composition comprising (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), said nitrogen compound being selected from the group consisting of

• a. a monoamine or a hydroxymonoamine having the formula ##STR14## wherein R.sub.1 is alkyl having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl, benzyl or hydroxyalkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and each of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 is hydrogen or the same as R.sub.1 ;
• b. a polyamine having the formula ##STR15## wherein n is an integer of 1 - 6, m is an integer of 1 - 3 and each of R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 is hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and C.sub.n H.sub.2n is alkylene;
• c. an aromatic amino compound having the formula ##STR16## wherein each of R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 is hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms;
• d. a heterocyclic compound selected from the group consisting of 1,2,4-triazole, benzotriazole, imidazole and morpholine;
• and
• e. an amine selected from the group consisting of guanidine and hexamethylenetetramine.
