I'd suggest something like:
followed by another treatment for final corrosion protection /
treatments for adjusting corrosion protection

Another idea:

[the damaged surfaces should] be subjected to a further corrosion-protecting/corrosion-preventing treatment

neutral  Michael Harris: agggh, not Leo!Leo is one of the worst references in the net because anyone can enter anything they want. I am also the opinion that solid references are better at ProZ than Leo (my opinion)
2 hrs
  -> why not? If you have a solid understanding of the language, I think Leo is very useful - I've forbidden my students to use it, though! Yes, but as a quick thesaurus, I like it. Wordsmyth is just too limited. Language is tricky!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Tow about "re-application of corrosion protection"?


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  British Diana: Yes, and if it is "Nachkonservierung", how about "repeat protection"?
34 mins
  -> Thank you, Diana. See my above note.

agree  Michael Harris: subsequent conservation?
4 hrs
  -> Thank you, Michael. But I don't think "conservation" would be the term used in this context.
