Provided is a method for forming a multilayer coating film, comprising simultaneously curing an uncured base coating film, an uncured effect coating film, and an uncured clear coating film. In this method, an effect pigment dispersion (Y) contains water, a rheology control agent (A), and a flake-effect pigment (B), and has a solids content of 0.5 to 10 mass %; the flake-effect pigment (B) is an interference pigment in which a transparent or translucent base material is coated with a metal oxide; and the flake-effect pigment (B) is contained in an amount of 30 to 90 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the total solids content in the effect pigment dispersion (Y).

Method for forming multilayer coating film

The present invention relates to an effect pigment dispersion comprising water, a flake aluminum pigment, and a cellulose-based rheology control agent, wherein the effect pigment dispersion contains 0.1 to 10 parts by mass of solids based on 100 parts by mass of all components thereof, the viscosity measured using a Brookfield type viscometer is 400 to 10000 mPa&#xb7;sec at a rotational speed of 6 revolutions per minute, and the solids content of the flake aluminum pigment is 30 to 200 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of components other than the flake aluminum pigment in the total solids content.
