Plating for fixtures exposed to mineral oil

I want to do plating for fixtures which are used for component testing. As testing is with mineral oil please suggest suitable plating/coating method.

Hi, Uday. As far as I know, mineral oil is not corrosive, so any plating will meet that requirement. It is hard to suggest what plating is best without knowing any other requirements.
