The present invention describes a method of applying an abrasive coating to a substrate surface. The foil of the abrasive coating is first attached to the substrate side and then fused to the substrate side by, for example, brazing. Abrasive coatings can be made from carbide-like materials. The substrate is mostly a component of a superalloy material, such as a turbine engine. Also described are methods of repairing worn or damaged abrasive coatings applied on a substrate, and related products. |
