Brushed nickel spray paint?

I bought brushed nickel handles for my refurbished cabinets. Would like to spray the hinges and the bathroom door hinges in brushed nickel Any info available?

Brushed nickel is an electroplated finish that is done in an electroplating factory; it is not paint. You will not be able to duplicate a brushed nickel finish with paint, Joan. But if the hinges are recessed and not particularly obvious, a silver colored spray paint may be good enough.
