A process for producing a repair coating on a metallic surface coated with a corrosion protecting coating A applied with a pretreatment composition, an organic composition or a silicon compound containing composition. Corrosion protecting coating A has been at least partially removed in the area Z, and a thin corrosion protecting coating B containing a silicon compound is applied with a solution or dispersion containing a silane, a silanol, a siloxane, a polysiloxane or a mixture thereof on at least a part of the area Z. A further corrosion protecting coating C which is generated with an organic composition like a primer, a wet-primer, an e-coat, a powder coat, a base-coat or a clear-coat or a composition which is the same or another siloxane composition as for the thin film B may also be applied to coating B.
