A process is disclosed for applying a corrosion resistant system to structural steel, in which a zinc dust paint comprising 5-15% by weight of a binder and 85-95% by weight of a metallic zinc-based pigment component is applied to the steel as a first coat, and subsequently a coat of a composition comprising an aromatic/aliphatic polyhydroxyether and/or a saturated aromatic polyester resin having a number average molecular weight of at least 4000 and a pigment having a Mohs hardness of at least 2, the volume ratio of the binder to the pigment being in the range of 50:50 to 95:5. The thickness of the first coat is about 15-150 mu m and that of the second coat is about 15-150 mu m. The invention also relates to structural steel thus coated. |
