Abstract
An improved method of providing a protective coating on the surface of aluminum or aluminum alloys comprising: alkaline-cleaning the surface using a nonchromated and nonsilicated alkaline cleaner, following by a rinse in hot water; (b) deoxidizing the surface by immersion thereof in a nonchromated deoxidizer at room temperature, followed by a rinse in hot water; and (c) immersing the surface in boiling water for a period of time. Following the immersion step, the aluminum-containing part may be painted, powder-coated, or adhesive-bonded without requiring any wash primers to activate the substrate. Further, the part may be stored indefinitely in an acid-free paper that does not leave any residues. The only treatment required before painting, powder-coating, or adhesive bonding is a removal of any fingerprints in a suitable solvent such as acetone or iso-propyl alcohol.
