A method of balancing a coated rotating object (1) comprising forming at least one balancing zone (2), each balancing zone (2) providing an interface having corrosion properties being at least substantially identical to the corrosion properties of the coating material. The rotating object (1) is balanced by adding and/or removing material at position(s) corresponding to the balancing zone(s) (2). Thereby the corrosion properties provided by the coating are not compromised during balancing of the rotating object (1). Furthermore, a coated rotating object (1) having balancing zone(s) (2) is disclosed.
