Spray Beads

How can I Metal Plate beads?

I have serveral old wood, plastic, stone and clay beads and wanted to spruce them up with a metal coat. Basically I would like to “silver”, “gold”, “copper” or “crome” plate them. Of course not the real thing, thats too expensive.
Is there a suitable spray paint or dipping paint I can use? One that wont chip or rub off?

They do sell chrome or gold spray paint, but I have been disappointed with them myself. They may have improved in the last few years. Auto parts stores carry this type of paint. You might could use tin. Take a heated pot, with tin melted in it (or any other soft metal…except for lead because it’s toxic), and carefully dip the beads in it (with a string tied to them). Good luck.
