Hi Ramesh. It's possible that "PF" is a code that I am unfamiliar with and which indicates some particular substrate ... but it may simply be that there is at least one typo in what you wrote. Please find out from the customer or potential customer what it is that they want plated, what specification number they want it plated to, to what thickness, and what kind of chromate they want. Contract disputes are a commonplace even when everyone understands exactly what is wanted; when they don't, it gets silly very fast :-)

Luck and Regards,
