It's both a polarity "attraction" mechanism and a substitution mechanism (activation energy).
Once attracted to the metal surface, the molecules have enough activation energy to "displace" the top layer of atoms and replace them with a hard film of molecules "activated" out of solution. The resulting film not only has to be somewhat hard, but "pliable" as well. In other words, too hard a film will crack, and too soft a film will shear off too quickly.
As far as militec, I have read their info and much of it seems self-contradictory. I do not know of the validity of any claims nor do I know if their technology is the same technology being used here.
