Patent Images
1. A method for passivating a metallic surface of a lightweight metal component, said method comprising:
- in a passivating step applying an aqueous passivation solution on the metallic surface of the lightweight metal component, thereby generating on the metallic component surface a conversion layer which contains calcium phosphate, amino acids, and further contains oxides and hydroxides of the lightweight metal component; and
in a first coating step forming a lightweight metal KTL (cathodic dip painting) layer as an organic protective layer in a dip bath as paint particles dissolved in the dip bath are attracted by the lightweight metal component and adhere to the lightweight metal component.

Abstract
A method for passivating a metal surface of a light-weight metal part is disclosed, wherein a conversion layer is applied to the surface of the light-weight metal part in a passivation step. A passivation step is carried out wherein an aqueous passivation solution is used to create a calcium phosphate-containing conversion layer (5) on the metal surface of the part, said conversion layer comprising oxides and hydroxides from the material of the part and from the passivation solution and containing amino acids.
