All i am doing is doubling the thickness of part. its 1 MM and i am doing is making it to 2 MM thick.

Depending on what the part actually is, you could load it in Cura slicer, click on the part, and on the left side there is a column of icons. The second icon from the top is scale. You can scale the whole thing or just in one particular direction. You can also specify if you want to scale by a particular percentage or to an exact size. If your part is only 1mm thick, change it there to 2mm.
The caveat in all of this is that if you have something that is dimensionally critical, like a screw hole, scaling the part in this way would change the hole from a circle to an oval.
I think you can use Meshmixer for this
When you are stressed …you lose focus on obvious. Thank you appreciate quick help. Lets see how it turns out.
