    In all seriousness, if you wanted to convert black chrome to chrome, you would have to remove the covers and send them to a plating shop to be stripped and replated. Bead blasting before plating would produce the typical satin chrome finish.

    By far the easiest way to convert a black chrome Leica to a chrome one is to trade your black one for a chrome one, or sell yours and buy a chrome one.

    I do use a digital device in my photographic pursuits when necessary.
    When someone rags on me for using film, I use a middle digit, upraised.
