Call any chrome plater….they’ll do it.
The reason is pretty ingenious: Chrome sticks to almost nothing, but it loves to stick to nickel. Nickel is also a stubborn metal to plate, but it sticks to copper. Copper sticks to damn near anything. When you see a chrome house claim "triple chrome process", it means they take your part, copper plate it, then nickel plate it, and finally chrome plate it. That’s just how it’s done.
If the chrome plater simply stops at the nickel stage & buffs it out, you’ll be A-OK.
