The present invention relates to a particularly effective protective coating for metallic objects, the coating method, and the special applications thereof. The particularly high protective effect is achieved by the adaptation of the inorganic fraction and the organic polymer fraction of the coating to the specific surface of the object. Further adjustments of the coating can be used for further optimization, for example of the protection properties or other product properties. 1. A pigment comprising a metallic substrate and at least one inorganic/organic hybrid layer ,wherein the inorganic/organic hybrid layer comprises at least one metal oxide, at least one network former, and at least one organic polymer,wherein the at least one metal oxide does not constitute an oxidation product of the metallic substrate, and the term “metal oxide” comprises oxides, hydroxides, and oxide hydrates of the metals and semimetals,wherein the network former is joined at least partially covalently to the metal oxide and to the organic polymer,{'sup': 2', '2, 'wherein the ratio of the amount of metal oxide of the inorganic/organic hybrid layer to the specific surface area of the uncoated metal pigment is in a range from 16.1 mg/mto 25 mg/m, and'}{'sup': 2', '2, 'the ratio of the amount of organic polymer of the inorganic/organic hybrid layer to the specific surface area of the uncoated metal pigment is in a range from 3.9 mg/mto 10.1 mg/m.'}2. The pigment according to claim 1 , wherein the metallic substrate is platelet-shaped.3. The pigment according to claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer is not polyethylene.4. The pigment according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the amount of metal oxide of the coating to the specific surface area of the uncoated metal pigment is in a range from 17.2 mg/mto 23 mg/m.5.
