Color under chrome?

[rembrant]

I don't know if this has been asked before, I tried a search and came up with nothing, but I have a couple questions about chrome finishing.

1) If there is some kind of color on the nickel plating is it possible to see it through the chrome layer (specifically the "Black Krome" kit).

2) Is there a way to color the nickel (like an anodized aluminum finish), that won't interfere with the chrome plating.

I don't think I can get the look I want without paint, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks

Absolutely not!
