Q. Dear Sir,

A. Hi Abbas

Could you please explain your actual problem?
Like where your parts are being shipped? Shipping through Sea? what is the customer requirement? etc.,

If thare is no requirements on coating weights, etc., you have to concentrate on your packaging method. Try to pack your parts in VCI cover and put some moisture absorber in that pack.

Good luck.
