Coating method and coated article

A coated articled, comprising:

• a substrate defining a substrate surface having a substrate surface roughness (Ra);
• and
• a coating, wherein the coating includes:
• at least one bond coating layer defining a bond coating surface having a bond coating surface roughness (Ra), wherein the at least one bond coating layer is formed on the substrate surface;
• and
• at least one oxide coating layer defining an oxide coating surface having an oxide coating surface roughness (Ra), wherein the at least one oxide coating layer is formed on the bond coating surface,
• wherein the oxide coating layer is more resistive to increasing the oxide coating surface roughness (Ra) than either the bond coating layer is resistive to increasing the bond coating surface roughness (Ra) or the substrate is resistive to increasing the substrate surface roughness (Ra).
