Hi,
Can small plastic pieces that have been painted with silvaspray be brush plated with copy chrome, or do they have to be tank plated?

It's best to tank plate them, at least until you get the first layer of plating onto the part. Then you can brush plate other metals if desired.

You can also use the Plug N Plate kits to tank plate if the parts are very small.
