Spray on Chrome

I just found a guy in my (withing 60 miles ) that does Spray on chrome... I'm thinking about taking a piece of my dash to him to see how it turns out (speedometer) after I look at his work to make sure it's what will work for me.

has anyone got theirs done that way?
what was the cost?
how long did it take?

I know it won't be as durable as the vacuum metalized version the factory did.
I just can't find a plater that will do it for a reasonable price . I've got a price anywhere from 700 to 2000 just to do my dash and that's not detailing it.
I'd go to MR G's but they don't have all the pieces anymore.
