Need a material to air brush onto lead products for chrome finish

I need a material to air brush onto lead lures which will produce a "chrome-like" finish. Also, the finish needs to be durable like epoxy. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

The chrome-look paints are a relatively recent development and they are not something you buy out of a can at a hardware store and brush on (not yet at least). Rather, you work with one of the developers / patent holders and use their licensed process. Some sources are Alsa Corporation, Gold Touch [a finishing.com supporting advertiser] and G.J.
