Abstract: A method for coating a sealing fin (2) on a component of a turbomachine, in particular on a blade tip (6) of a blade (1) of a turbomachine, with armoring (3, 30, 300), and to a corresponding component, in which method a blade (1) having at least one sealing fin (2) and a slurry which comprises particles of MCrAlY or particles for forming an MCrAlY layer (31), where M is nickel and/or cobalt, are provided, the slurry is applied onto the sealing fin and dried, and the sealing fin with the applied slurry is subjected to an aluminizing process so that the MCrAlY layer comprises an Al-rich sublayer (32).
