According to an embodiment of the invention, a repaired component is disclosed. The repaired component comprises an engine run component having a base metal substrate, a portion of the base metal substrate between about 1-3 mils in thickness and an overlying bond coat having been removed to create a remaining base metal substrate of reduced thickness. The repaired component further comprises a lower growth environmental bond coating comprising an alloy having an aluminum content of about 10-60 atomic percent applied to the remaining base metal substrate so that upon subsequent repair of the component, less than about 1-3 mils in thickness of the remaining base metal substrate is removed because of less environmental coating growth into the substrate than the prior bond coat. Advantageously, the repaired component has extended component life and increased repairability.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for repairing a coated component, which has been exposed to engine operation, to produce a repaired component without a weight penalty comprising: a) providing an engine run component including a base metal substrate having thereon a bond coat; b) removing the bond c
What is claimed is: 1. A method for repairing a coated component, which has been exposed to engine operation, to produce a repaired component without a weight penalty comprising: a) providing an engine run component including a base metal substrate having thereon a bond coat; b) removing the bond coat, wherein a portion of the base metal substrate between about 1-3 mils in thickness also is removed to create a remaining base metal substrate of reduced thickness; c) applying a lower growth environmental bond coating directly to the remaining base metal substrate comprising an alloy having an aluminum content of about 10 atomic percent, wherein the lower growth environmental bond coating and the remaining base metal substrate of the component interact to form a diffusion zone, and upon subsequent repair of the component, less than about 3 mils in thickness of the remaining base metal substrate is removed because of less environmental coating growth into the substrate than the prior bond coat, thereby extending component life and increasing repairability of the component, wherein the lower growth environmental bond coat has a density less than density of the prior bond coat and the repaired component does not incur a weight penalty in that the repaired component does not weigh more than the component prior to repair. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein not more than about 1 mil in thickness of the remaining base metal substrate of c) is removed. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein thickness of the environmental bond coating of c) is controlled to produce an integrated aluminum level of less than or equal to about 4000 μm*at. % Al. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the environmental bond coating comprises a material selected from the group consisting of Ni, Al, Cr, reactive elements, noble metals and combinations thereof. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the bond coat of a) is a diffusion bond coating. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the environmental bond coating of c) has an integrated aluminum level less than about 2250 μm*at. % Al. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the environmental bond coating is a diffusion coating. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the diffusion coating comprises an aluminide diffusion coating. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the diffusion coating comprises a PtAI diffusion coating. 10. The method of claim 6, wherein the prior bond coat is a PtAl diffusion coating having an integrated aluminum level of about 2250 μm*at. % Al or greater. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein thickness of the environmental bond coating of c) is controlled to produce an integrated aluminum level of less than or equal to about 4000 μm*at. % Al. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the component is a gas turbine engine component. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the environmental bond coat has a density of about 6.1 g/cm3 and the prior bond coat has a density of about 7.9 g/cm3. 14. A method for repairing a coated component, which has been exposed to engine operation, to produce a repaired component without a weight penalty comprising: a) providing an engine run component including a base metal substrate having thereon a bond coat; b) removing the bond coat, wherein a portion of the base metal substrate between about 1-3 mils in thickness also is removed to create a remaining base metal substrate of reduced thickness; c) applying a lower growth environmental bond coating directly to the remaining base metal substrate comprising an alloy having an aluminum content selected from the group consisting of about 10 atomic percent, about 15 atomic percent and about 20 atomic percent; and upon subsequent repair of the component, less than about 3 mils in thickness the remaining base metal substrate is removed because of less environmental coating growth into the substrate than the prior bond coat, thereby extending component life and increasing repairability of the component, wherein the environmental bond coating is an MCrAlY coating applied to a thickness range not exceeding between about 3-8 mils, wherein M is selected from the group consisting of Ni, Fe, Co and combinations thereof, with Cr and Y being optional, and the thickness of the environmental bond coating of c) is controlled to produce an integrated aluminum level of less than or equal to about 4000 μm*at. % Al, wherein the environmental bond coating has a density less than density of the prior bond coat and the repaired component does not incur a weight penalty in that the repaired component does not weigh more than the component prior to repair. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the environmental bond coat has a density of about 6.1 g/cm3 and the prior bond coat has a density of about 7.9 g/cm3.
