Default Chrome Plating a Paintball Marker

I recently stripped a paintball marker of all it's annodization. Now I want to plate it with chrome. It is made from aluminum but I am nt sure what type.

I have been told that they have to plate it with copper or brass first then the chrome.

MY QUESTIONS:

(a) How thick is typic Annodization?

(b) How thick will all the plating be when its done?

Formula: Aluminum - (a) + (b) =

Will this mess up the tolerances of the marker seals?

Thank You,

HellRazor
