ABSTRACT:
Corrosion resistance of metallic components such as stainless steel components of vehicles, and especially aluminum-based components of aircraft, is enhanced by application of an e-coat paint or primer which is enhanced by incorporation of cerium ions into the e-coat electrolytic bath. The resulting overall coating includes a cerium-based layer under a cerium-enhanced e-coat paint or primer layer.
