Hi,

I want to know how graphite coating is done? And what will the hardness of the coating be?

Graphite coating can be done using using cathodic arc, sputtering etc. The coating would have both graphitic and diamond phases whose ratio can be controlled. The films are actually called DLC. RF & microwave can be used.
