Possibly Tenix Electroplaters at Parafield Airport or there's an electroplater at Elizabeth West somewhere.

No idea

its off a gear shift knob - just a small plate that can be removed to be re plated

This comment will get shot down...

I purchased a spray can of chrome paint/maybe it was silver...? from somewhere.

Always ask the supplier for advise.

Worked a treat.

I would advise anyone to try it. So you lose $5.....

If it works, great.. :lol:
