Alodine or Alocrom 1200 conductive replacement

I am looking for an alternative for Alodine or Alocrom 1200. In addition to its corrosion and scratch resistance and use as a paint primer, of great importance is low electrical resistivity. Any proven recommendations?

These are used for AMSC5541 chromate conversion coating. Start with that spec, and read the QPL (Qualified Products List); there you will have the names of all the products which are accepted as equivalent.
