I have some very small items that should have chrome on them and was wondering if anyone know of a decent rattle can chrome that would at least give a somewhat shiny appearance. It is not that important that they be extremely close looking to chrome but if they will pass from 10 feet, that would work. Any suggestions?

I've heard chrome nail polish works pretty good. Don't know how durable it is.

Killer chrome works good but is expensive.
Another cheaper option is Alclad from a hobby store. You prep the piece and spray it with gloss black lacquer. Then you mist on the Alclad chrome with a airbrush.
