Need colored chromating or part staining on steel

I am working on a shim package and the prints call out for a stained or dyed finish. Each part in the series calls for a different color (red, pink, brown, tan, orange, yellow, light blue, lavender, white, black and gold). The previous supplier was using a product call Dykem. I really do not want to do something like this in house and was wondering if there were platings available that would take care of these colors. I know it's a longshot but I figured I'd give it a try. Thanks
