Not many people in the world can tell you what it will cost in your country.
You need to define what you really want in more detail, but I am going to guess. I think that you are looking for a thin graphite coating that is somewhat like paint.
Do a web search for "dry Film Lubrication" . traditionally, this is moly disulfide, but several companies sell a graphite one.
Normally, it involves a phosphate coating, with zinc phosphate being better than iron phosphate. Costs more but is supeior in many ways. Then the dry film material is sprayed on with a common sprayer and then is baked.
Try to find a local distributor for better tech services and availability.
