Abstract
Abstract A process is provided for applying an anticorrosive coating on an automobile body member. The process comprises subjecting the whole or lower portion of the body member to an electrodeposition in an aqueous bath containing (A) a cationic resinous binder and (B) a synthetic resin in the form of fine powder which is solid at room temperature but can melt at an elevated temperature, the weight ratio of (A)/(B) being 1/0.05-5. Subsequently the whole of the body member is subjected, without hardening the deposited film, to an electrodeposition in an aqueous bath containing an anionic or cationic resin. The thus treated article is washed with water and baked to effect the hardening thereof.

A process for applying an anticorrosive coating on an automobile body member which comprises subjecting the lower portion of the body member to a first electrodeposition in an aqueous bath containing (a) a cationic resinous binder and (b) a synthetic resin in the form of fine powder, which is solid at room temperature but can melt at an elevated temperature, the weight ratio of (a)/(b) being 1/0.5-5, by applying a voltage between the said body member as the cathode immersed at its lower portion in the electrodeposition bath and a counter-electrode as the anode in said bath, while withdrawing the said body member upwardly out of said electrodeposition bath, and then subjecting the whole body member without hardening the first deposited film to a second electrodeposition in an aqueous bath containing an anionic or cationic resin, washing the thus treated article with water and baking the same to effect hardening of the coating.
