Abstract

Disclosed are systems for treating a substrate comprising a deoxidizing composition and a coating composition. The deoxidizing composition comprises a Group IVA metal and/or a Group IVB metal and free fluoride, optionally may comprise a homopolymer or copolymer comprising a phosphorous-containing monomeric subunit, and has a pH of 1.0 to 3.0. The coating composition comprises first and second components and elastomeric particles. The first component comprises an epoxy-containing compound. The second component comprises a diamine and/or a polyamine comprising a cyclic ring. The diamine may chemically react with the epoxy-containing compound. The present invention is also directed to methods of making the compositions, methods of coating a substrate, and coated substrates.

9 - 10 . (canceled)

11 . The system of claim 35 , wherein the diamine comprising the cyclic ring and/or the polyamine comprising the cyclic ring is present in an amount sufficient to provide a molar ratio of epoxide functional groups from the epoxy-containing compound to amine-hydrogens from the diamine and/or polyamine of 0.5:1.0 to 1.5:1.0.
