Methods for refurbishing aerospace components by removing corrosion and depositing protective coatings are provided herein. In one or more embodiments, a method of refurbishing an aerospace component includes exposing the aerospace component containing corrosion to an aqueous cleaning solution. The aerospace component contains a nickel superalloy, an aluminide layer disposed on the nickel superalloy, and an aluminum oxide layer disposed on the aluminide layer. The method includes removing the corrosion from a portion of the aluminum oxide layer with the aqueous cleaning solution to reveal the aluminum oxide layer, then exposing the aluminum oxide layer to a post-rinse, and forming a protective coating on the aluminum oxide layer.

The present invention relates to a method for the corrosion-protective and cleaning pretreatment of metallic components, produced at least partially from metallic materials from the elements iron, zinc and/or aluminum, with the use of an acid aqueous composition containing, in addition to the water-soluble compounds of the elements Zr and/or Ti causing the conversion of the metal surface, a mixture of an aliphatic diol and an aliphatic saturated polyhydroxy compound. It also comprises a chrome(VI)-free aqueous composition based on the constituents mentioned above which delivers outstanding results in cleaning and simultaneous corrosion-protective conversion of technical metal surfaces in one method step.
