If you mean such items as; scent bottle tops, coffin handles etc., then the items to be coated are covered with a fine layer of aluminium which is evaporated and then deposited, on the item, in a vacuum chamber. The item is then sprayed with a clear laquer for a chrome effect, or yellow for a brass effect.
