Not sure about this, but i heard somewhere that chrome can transfer electric current, is it true?

if its true then u'll risk causing electricity leak with ur PC if u paint it 100% chrome...

If "celup"(dipping) into the chrome thingy would be electrolysis just like ryudox said, never heard of Chrome spray can, but i think its worth a try since the "celup" procedure might cost u more...

Interested with ur chrome suggestion, hope you'll find a way to chrome ur casing bro..

just asked the "bangla" worker at factory near my house [sg. buloh] there how to do it. they charge me rm100 but im pretty sure they did this without their boss permission.lol. so the price might change depends on the time n their mood i think.

but chrome will conduct electricity, its a metal and the electrons in the electron sea can move about in the chrome layer. make sure your cables are nicely arranged and managed, no koyak2 here and there.

anyways, cool idea of chroming!!! can also shave yourself and look at the insides of ur pc if u have a window!!

lastly, all the best!!! biggrin.gif
