Somebody has done it? post your pics please
I read that there are two popular methods. One is using an adhesive (primer) to adhere metallic paint (must be made of metallic elemnets) first to the plastic, then do your regular galvanic cell process, the other one is through microretention/friction to roughen the surface and directly adhere the metallic oxides and then do the galvanic cell.
The thing is that maybe for keycaps there is no problem, but for large pieces there might some issues.
