Unfortunately, chrome has to be electroplated.
You may want to try a product from the rustoleum line to restore a better metallic look. Otherwise, get ready to shell out the dough.

I think it actually gets dipped in a tank. My father got his bumper re-chromed for a '63 Olds that way.

....or even more simply put, no, chrome cannot get re-sprayed, it needs to be electro-plated which is a process which specialized companies do.
