When I got my bumpers back from the platers, they told me to paint the
insides to keep them from rusting.  I applied a coating of Corroless instead
and after waiting a few hours, sprayed over the Corroless with Rustoleum
silver (not the ultra metallic stuff, just the regular) and the result was a
satiny silver finish, nearly identical to the way they came back from the
chrome shop.  Except now they had a barrier coat to keep them from rusting.
