Hello...
Sorry but I didn't understand exactly what you mean.Especially what is relationship between decorative chrome and your question.Anyway...I know you plate towel warmers.I think you want to know can I plate semi-bright plating instead of acid copper plating.Of course its possible but I never heard semi-satin nickel.Also its very strange this name because satin nickel also dull deposit.How can it be dulled ? I don't know.So,you can use semi-bright or double even multiple system instead of acid copper plating.

Good Luck.............
