Sorry, I don't have those standards handy. Assuming you do, how many hours are they looking for? Certainly there are a number of coatings that will pass salt spray tests, electroless nickel or powder coating, for example.

Dear Sir

You can try out Arcor process process for better salt sparay test. Actually I don't know the standards you have specified. But in general MS material, after Arcor processing it will with stand from 150 to 200 Hrs. I am working in tribology India ltd, hosur. arumugam
