Corrosion resistant non-polar polymer coatings and methods for applying the coatings to substrates are described, wherein a source of non-polar polymer powder is deposited as a coating onto the surface of a substrate by high temperature thermal spray. The non-polar character of the powder and any additives thereto is substantially preserved during the high temperature thermal spray process by the use, at one or more locations along the thermal spray route, of at least one non-oxidizing shielding gas, at least one reducing gas, or a combination of the two types of gases to displace or react with ambient oxygen. High velocity impact force (HVIF) spraying techniques are preferred. Similarly processes and materials for low permeability and non-corrosive HVIF coatings for steel fuel tanks are disclosed.
