Chrome pain for plastic?

I might have asked this before, but anyway! I was bored and looking at my lame $10.00 mouse and thought, "HEY! I should totally paint this chrome!"

So anyone know where to get some chrome pain?

Chrome pain? You can get that by running into a chrome wall I suppose.

For chrome paint, on the other hand, you could check ebay;

Chrome Paint has a nasty effect if you touch it a lot. It will eventually turn grey and look like crap.

Dupli-Color makes a chrome effect paint, but it won't have a nice mirror finish on a textured surface. I don't think painting the mouse chrome is a good idea, since it will show every fingerprint and mark the mouse gets form normal use.

You'll just have to get creative, then!

Perhaps something like how G-Force painted his Xbox controller?

Or like how he painted his mouse? When I find the link I'll post it.
edit:Well nevermind, the blog he posted it on can not be found...
