Abstract

A metallic object to be protected from corrosion, such as a steel automobile body panel, is connected to an electron source as a cathode. An electrically isolating coating is disposed on the metallic object. A blanket anode is applied onto the electrically isolating coating. The blanket anode is electrically conductive. A non-metallic electrode is connected to the blanket anode and to the electron source. Hydrogen absorbent mixtures are added to the coating. Capillary action is addressed. Damage to the blanket anode and the electrically isolating coating creates a location for electrolyte to collect to create an electrochemical cell and activate cathodic protection to prevent corrosion of the metallic object.
