Corrosion resistance for electroless tin plating?

I am now coating small component by electroless tin plating in barrels. I would like to know how to prolong the corrosion resistance for the tin coated components. Please let me if there are any lacquers or other process to resist corrosion.
Thanks,

Better you specific the salt spray hours.
Normally tin plating will help for electrical contacts.
Better you do some organic lacquers /Sealants after plating.
It will help you little bit.
