A decorative laminate includes a metallic layer that has excellent metallic glossiness and can reduce or prevent appearance failure, and a method of producing the same, and a metallic coating composition that can form the metallic layer. A decorative laminate includes: at least one selected from the group consisting of a substrate and a release liner; and a metallic layer containing metal pigment particles and a binder, the metal pigment parciles having a particle diameter D50 of from approximately 5 to approximately micrometers and a particle diameter D90 of from approximately 10 to approximately 30 micrometers, the metallic layer having an L* value of approximately 85 or greater.

Object: Provided is a stretchable film having a low-glass appearance, wherein the low gloss appearance does not readily change even when the film is stretched. Solution: A stretchable film of one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a surface layer including: a binder comprising urethane resin; urethane resin beads having an average particle size of not less than 4 μm and not greater than 20 μm; and nanosilica particles; wherein the surface gloss is not greater than 5 GU at 60 degrees.

Stretchable film and surface coating composition

Object: The present disclosure provides a film having a low gloss appearance and excellent scratch resistance, and a surface coating composition that can be used in the production of such a film. Resolution Means: The film of one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a scratch resistant surface layer containing a binder containing a urethane resin, urethane resin beads having an average particle diameter of 3 μm to 30 μm, hard particles having an average particle diameter of 5 μm to 45 μm; and nanosilica particles. The surface layer contains the hard particles in an amount of 30 parts by mass to 500 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the binder. The gloss of the surface layer is approximately 5.5 GU or less at 60 degrees.
