Abstract
Abstract A method of forming a coating on a polyolefin substrate comprising the steps of applying a primer coating onto the substrate and then applying a finish coating is disclosed. The method is characterized in that the primer coating consists essentially of a polyurethane prepolymer derived from a polypropylene glycol having a molecular weight from about 400 to about 2,000 and an excess of diphenylmethane diisocyanate.
