ABSTRACT:
A method of protecting a surface has the steps of providing a coating material containing sufficient aluminum flakes to provide a physical barrier to corrosion; and applying the coating material to a surface, thereby protecting the surface with an armor of aluminum. The method provides a coating material comprising about 3% to about 25% by weight of aluminum flakes, about 5% to about 20% by weight of aluminum flakes and about 7% to about 15% by weight of aluminum flakes. The aluminum flakes in the coating material can be non-leafing. A method of treating old concrete and rusting rebar, calls for providing a coating material containing sufficient aluminum flakes to provide a physical barrier to corrosion and polyisocyanates with sufficient unreacted NCO groups to scavenge water and provide a water-tight coating; and applying the coating material to the surfaces of damaged concrete and exposed rebar, thereby protecting the surfaces with an armor of aluminum. A method of restoring bridges whose zinc chromate paint needs to be repaired calls for providing a coating material containing sufficient aluminum flakes to provide a physical barrier to corrosion and polyisocyanates with sufficient unreacted NCO groups to scavenge water and provide a water-tight coating; and applying the coating material to the zinc chromate surface.
