    If it's a plastic part, you might try Testor's chrome spray paint. I've never used it, but I'm guessing that it might leave a finish similar to what you got on the chrome pieces in a model kit.

    Wouldn't it be easier and give a much better finish to just get it professionally chromed?  :dontknow: :)

     :iagree:Well yea I guess but.....It is for a penny gumball machine I am restoring! Bought it at a swap meet.  The cost of plating will be more than the machine is worth. Just checking my options.
