    no ano can only be done on Aluminum. if you want to color a chrome thing or steel whatever it is you have to power coat it.

        Technically, yes, you can. Almost all metals (chrome included) can be anodized, as its only the addition of oxygen to the metal. Practically, it can't be anodized as it will make a heck of a mess. It needs to be stripped off, and then anodized.

            The answer is dependant on what's beneath the chrome. If it's chromed aluminum then it has a layer of zinc underneath the chrome that must be stripped away as well before you can get to the aluminum. If it's chromed steel or other metals then you cannot anodize it - you could get the piece powdercoated however.
