Described herein are coating systems for preparing multi-layered finishes, multi-layered finish coated substrates, and methods of applying multi-layered finishes to substrates. A coating system for preparing multi-layered finishes includes a base coating component and a clear coating component comprising effects particles. An additional coating system for preparing multi-layered finishes includes a base coating component, a printed coating component, and a clear coating component.

Multi-layered finishes for can ends

A measuring device for non-mechanical-contact measurement of a layer, the measuring device including a light source operative to generate a pulse adapted to interact with the layer so as to generate a thermal wave in a gas medium present adjacent the layer. The thermal wave causes an acoustic signal to be generated. The measuring device further includes a detector adapted to detect a first signal responsive to the acoustic signal, the detector not being in mechanical contact with the layer. The first signal is representative of the measured layer.
