1. An aqueous coating composition capable of forming an adherent coating onto a metal substrate, the coating composition comprising a physical blend of:
a resin system comprising an acrylic polymer, a polyester polymer, a polyether polymer or a mixture or copolymer thereof; and
an alkali-soluble resin additive having a number average molecular weight of at least 1,000, in an amount less than 10 wt. % based on total resin solids in the coating composition;
wherein the alkali-soluble resin additive is present in the physical blend as a separate component;
wherein the coating is a spray application coating composition; and
wherein if the resin system comprises an acrylic polymer comprising an emulsion polymerized acrylic latex prepared from ethylenically unsaturated monomers, then the coating composition includes more than 50 wt. %, based on total resin solids in the coating composition, of the emulsion polymerized acrylic latex.
