A zinc or zinc alloy electroplated metal sheet comprises a metal sheet having, on at least one surface thereof, a composite zinc or zinc alloy plated coating formed by electroplating with zinc or a zinc alloy in a plating solution which contains at least one organic compound selected from the group consisting of alkynes, alkynols, amines and salts thereof, thio compounds, heterocyclic compounds, and aromatic carboxylic acids and salts thereof. The composite plated coating has a coating weight of 0.5-200 g/m.sup.2 and contains 0.001-10 wt % of co-deposited carbon. The electroplated metal sheet has improved post-painting corrosion resistance, press formability, and spot weldability.

An anticorrosive primer composition comprises (1) 100 parts by weight of an epoxy resin having a number-average molecular weight of from 500 to 10,000, (2) from 10 to 60 parts by weight of an aromatic polyamine containing from 2% to 30% by weight, based on the aromatic polyamine, of a promoter selected from the group consisting of phenol compounds and cresol compounds, (3) from 10 to 60 parts by weight of a polyisocyanate, (4) from 10 to 40 phr, based on the sum of components (1), (2), and (3), of silica particles of colloidal silica or fumed silica or a mixture of these, (5) from 0.5 to 5 phr of a lubricant, and (6) an organic solvent. The composition is particularly suitable for use to apply onto the chromate coating of a chromated, zinc-plated steel sheet.
